If we can’t get Rodri, I’m not sure if we would have to sign anyone (if Leroy, Ilkay and Nico stays):
GK: Ederson and Muric
RB: Walker and Danilo
CB: Stones, Laporte, Otamendi and Garcia/Fernandinho
LB: Zinchenko and Mendy
DM: Fernandinho and Gundogan
CM: Kev, Merlin, Bernardo and Foden
RW/LW: Sterling, Sane, Mahrez and Bernardo
CF: Aguero and Jesus

If Mendy and Kev can stay fit they would be like new signings. Also have some promising players from the academy
That's a pretty solid team.

I'm a big fan of refreshing though. You have to. It's how you recharge and refocus.

Felix and Rodri will do.

Would like Rodri, but not so keen on Felix. I’m sure that there will be another Felix next year. Would much rather keep Sane and Jesus

Adapt or die. Teams will look at ways to counter our tactics, so Pep will try to be one step ahead
 
I'd like to keep both and bring in Felix

Bringing in Rodri and Felix would mean you have to free up another foreign spot, no?

Vinnie is out, but Jesus is moving to A list now.

It could be possible if our 3 needed keepers would be Eddie, Grimshaw (club-trained homegrown!) and Muric (B list).
Bravo would have to leave.
No space for Sandler.

Two important points need to be taken into considerations:
1. Manchester City can be punished and banned from signing new players for a minimum one season . This mean the Club management need to think in advance about the option that will replace players like Fernandinho, David Silva, or even Gundogan.
2. The CM positions might be weak, as Kev.D can not be guaranteed due to injury, and Merlin can not (as we have seen this season) play full season with the same performance tensity.

Totally agree with you because competition is getting keener. We need tweak things a little bit and we also have to be mindful of injury prone players, potential bans and ageing players, plan against the occurence of any/all of these potential peoblems rather than wish them away as some seem to be suggesting we do.
 
That Sam Lee article is all over the place. He could have saved himself a load of time, by just writing, I haven't a fucking clue whats going on.

I asked that moody Kurd who sells the fake ugg boots in the Three Legs of Man what he makes of Sam Lee.

Reckons he’s a definite KFA.

That works for me.
 
Sounds like he is leaving. Let's just hope it's us and not Bayern (or anyone else) that he signs for.
