I’m hoping for Mahrez as well. Watched some of the FA cup final (obviously cheering on the chavs) and apart from a few runs in behind and a couple of tidy little dribbles did very little else. Yes he won a penalty but it relied on inept defending.Totally agree. Mahrez for me.
If we play 60 games with 2 wingers then Sane, Hazard and Sterling could all potentially start 40 games each. Allowing the other one to be an impact sub. It'll keep each fresh while still providing enough football.
I think we'll be seeing Raz centrally more and more though even if it's just a switch mid match.
two things get right on my tits on these transfer pages
1: we need to bring cover in,someone who is happy to be sat on the bench.
bollox,any player who is happy to be sat on the bench(except young players) are not worth a wank,we need to bring players in who think they are a first teamer and want to challenge for a starting spot.
2: if we get hazard that might push sane away,well if sane has anything about him he will rise to the challenge ,and if he isn't well he might never make it, and that's not just about sane its about every player at the club ,if you cant handle a challenge then get out ,there will be no free wheeling at city
we saw with Sergio,how he responded to Gabriel coming in ,are we not seeing possibly the best of Sergio??(before injury)
all footballers have come through a lot to get where they are today, footballers should love the challenge

Exactly!You've forgotten Bernardo! Also no reason why Hazard couldn't play centrally.
I think 30-40 starts is about right for a player over the course of a season and, as you say with 60 games a season and at least 5 attacking positions, that's 300 possible starting berths per season. For those positions, we currently have 8 players (Aguero, Jesus, Sane, Sterling, Bernardo, Silva, KDB, Gundogan). No harm in adding a ninth, especially if they can play across all 5 of those positions like Hazard can.

Well Kev and Salah, just to name two, had to go elsewhere, wouldn't want Sane going anywhere.
To manage different characters is very important and to purely say "It's up to you to prove yourself" is poor and show very little loyalty to players. Sane's got nothing to prove, as a developing kid he's unbelievable and we should show him respect by believing in him, sterling and Bernie.
