Both Phil and Rodri have new deals on table and will be signed this summer.

We have already replaced Sterling IMO.

Signing Grealish and having a superior player in Foden on the left is the reality.

Not the same, just different.

we need players on the right not on the left as you said we have many there. palmer hopefully will replace mahrez but we need one to replace sterling on the right.

Thanks for sharing as always @tolmie's hairdoo - you think Sane is realistic? Would be totally fine if we let Gabby and Sterling go, they are not getting any better with us unfortunately and they have brought us lots of success over the years. Bernardo more worrying obviously.

same sam lee who said the Lillo departure has caught us by surprise only 30 minutes later to tweet "Apparently city have Maresca all lined up as a replacement"....

I find support City during the summer window a big rollercoaster of emotions. Most of the time we have come off winning the league having had a great season, optimism is high, yet all of a sudden there is a fear that our squad is left short cos all our players want to leave and we go into the new season worrying about what might happen. Then it turns out Pep and Txiki knew exactly what they doing all along and we were once again successful!!

I, yet again, have fallen into the trap of worrying about our squad. Disclosure, i did think we were short of a couple of positions last year but that all worked out okay.

As our squad stands today, i think we need another full back and a defensive midfielder. I personally would not let anyone leave (if we had a choice) as we need the numbers to go for 4 trophies. If we were to lose Sterling and Jesus i think it leaves us another 2 players short.

I also think it is interesting what will happen to Delap, McAtee, Lavia, Mbete, etc. We need to fill a bench with 9 players our squad is not the biggest so there was always 3/4 young kids named and the inexplicable 2 keepers named. If we let our best crop of youngsters out on loan which i am not against it will mean we will be naming even less proven players on the bench.

Apologies for a bit of a mind dump, City have got me in my annually confused state. I am sure it will be fine...

If he stays fit Palmer is going to surprise a lot of people next season with just how good he is.

Mahrez, Alvarez, and Palmer will play on the right. In another article Sam also mentioned Foden is open to playing on the right. Would be good to get a replacement but not too concerned if they wait a year.

Not replacing two wingers leaving would be criminal and terrible planning

 

[Retro_Citizens]

Mane leaving only for £35M, has given chelsea and arsenal confidence to bid £35 and £30M gor raz and gabby

 

[I'm Blue]

You want Sterling - pay up
Arsenal want Gabby - pay up
Bernardo - pay up (please don’t)
All quality players so we need to stand our ground and get ‘our’ valuation, not theirs.
