We're not Real Madrid you know. Guardiola will be under massive pressure next season. To beat mid-table Premiership teams home and away is very difficult and I seriously doubt we will be that comfortable that we can rotate players. In the Cup games yes. But players want to play regularly and they want to play in the big games especially. You have to think we play our strongest available side against Liverpool, Utd, Arsenal, Spurs, Chelsea, Everton etc.
I know, but the manager has to put out a the strongest 11 to win games in our league. There will be a bif of rotation but in the league games, if Sanchez were to sign realistically it would be Sane, Sanchez and one of Aguero and Jesus 90% of the time. Sterling and Aguero would be under massive pressure. I expect a huge response from Aguero. I think he is going to come back a very hungry player next season. This is what he has needed
You sound like Baldrick.'Would that it were'! Not heard that phrase in a long while! :-)
'Would that it were'! Not heard that phrase in a month of Sundays! :-)
This! These people probably prefer us to have second rate reserves such as Navas, and then moan about his not being good enough. Come to think of it, they actually just want to moan.Haha only on here could people complain about signing a player like Sanchez! Kaldhoon is aiming for at least a treble next season, everyone will get game time
Yeah but Aguero is not a shiney new toyi just hate it when people act up like jesus will bench aguero. the truth is jesus has nothing on aguero in his prime form. aguero at his best is a world superstar and the boy jesus has a long way to go to reach that level. take for example yesterday's miss against argentina aguero would have walked the ball in the net. bet next season aguero will play more than jesus.

On the evidence of last season, Jesus would start. The coach picks the team on the basis of now not the great goals of the past. Las season City's form was radically better with jesus in the team....granted it was against weaker opponents, but we struggled in a lot of games to beat these weaker opponents.i just hate it when people act up like jesus will bench aguero. the truth is jesus has nothing on aguero in his prime form. aguero at his best is a world superstar and the boy jesus has a long way to go to reach that level. take for example yesterday's miss against argentina aguero would have walked the ball in the net. bet next season aguero will play more than jesus.
The final weeks of the season when some teams were on 40 points, or others down produced some ridiculous results, but City really struggled to knock average teams down at home. I remember games where we had 70% of possession and were trying desperately to score but we just couldn't put the game away.
Good luck with that.I know, but the manager has to put out a the strongest 11 to win games in our league. There will be a bif of rotation but in the league games, if Sanchez were to sign realistically it would be Sane, Sanchez and one of Aguero and Jesus 90% of the time.

And yet surged at the end. Depends on whether Kompany and Jesus play. Improve defence and forward line no end. Results proved it. With Kompany and Jesus City were the best, without we were top 6. Keep Kompany and Jesus and add Ederson, Silva and one or two others we will compete for trophieswe ran out of steam last season if we'd beaten Monaco we'd of struggled to finish in champ league position
every season i think how we going to play all these new signings but they all get loads of game time
I lost count of the games we just stopped playing inImagine a scenario where we are 4-0 up after an hour and instead of bringing on Navas and Fernandinho for Jesus and Merlin, we bring on Bernardo Silva and Sané, both pissed off that they didn't start.
Instead of everyone realising it's game over time to relax, instead we'll have players desperate to earn a start next week turning up the intensity when they come off the bench.
Pep made some comments about how he thought we needed to get past 2,3-0 up and push for 4,5,6-0 and then we did start doing that at the end of the season with a few 5 goal games, so I think it's something he is going to push for.
The changes we saw were repeatedly at the back where we had all kinds of problems trying to cope without Kompany and ageing full backs. I can see why he went through he whole lot including Fernandinho and Navas trying to find something that worked.Good luck with that.
