So is this it?

The team that Pep takes to the title.

................Hart
Sagna....Stones....Otamendi...Clichy
.............Fernandinho
....Silva.....................Gundongan
.................Kdb
........Kun................Leroy

With only 3 new players taht looks like a team that could cause serious problems for the opposition.

Never mind the subs, Sterling, Nacho, VK, Yaya, Nasri, Nolito et al

overconfidence at this stage is a bad thing but it does look mouthwatering.

If Kompany is fit enough to sit on the bench he's fit enough to start.
Really looking forward to the season though, think it's impossible to guess team or formation as it stands but I'm confident Pep gas it covered.

We're not 'miles away' at all. There are 3/4 teams who will fancy their chances as it stands and we're very much one of them.
Who's that far ahead of us right now that makes you say that?

What a load of rubbish. Without another signing this summer we will be right in the mix

In terms of weeks and the hard graft ahead yes we are. But like most people and pndits I thought we had the best squad last year and it was frittered away by an incompetent manager. Same players, a few quality additions, a few youngsters promoted and above all a half decent manager, you have to admit it could be a decent season.

 

[MarsLlama]

We could make no new signings and still have the best squad in the league. Even if United get Pogba. Best manager too.

I doubt we will see a consistent eleven players through most games. But I think Fernandinho and Otamendi are the payers who will make the most appearances next season.

Guardiola is the most important signing of the summer. Just that change alone would have seen me confident of us running a close race for the title.

On what planet would Otamendi start before Kompany if fit?

What do you mean by miles away? Miles away as in that there's a whole season ahead? Or miles away as in we're miles behind someone else? If so, who?
