We're only one man down at the moment on last season and that's ignoring McAtee coming back and Bobb perhaps stepping up. There's still a month to go and Gvardiol, although frustrating, looks like he's on his way shortly. I can't see how it's getting "smaller and smaller".

will judge at end of the window but like you say we’re only 1 down as it stands.

we have 2 spots available in the squad. Gvardiol + Mahrez replacement.

Probably because Mcatee and Palmer need loans. Bobb needs to be eased in so we do need some depth in the wide areas and some creativity

Barca have pretty bad record treating their injured player, his playing career for Barca is not looking good and i will not be surprised he will get early retirement in there

We nicked Dr Cuvat off them along with the 3 amigo's!!
 
With Barca wanting Cancelo and Dembele available for €50m could we not just swap them players? Pep gets rid of Cancelo and we get a winger?
 
Already sold players for a reported 96m (including add-ons). Plenty of other players could be leaving for big money. Cancelo, Laporte, Lavia (sell-on), Tosin (sell-on) THB and T. Doyle could bring the total up to 200m.

In terms of incomings Kovacic and Gvardiol would be roughly 115m. That’s potentially a negative net spend of 85m, so there should be plenty of money available for a couple more additions. Mahrez has not yet been replaced which is something we’ll have to address. Riyad and Ilkay had 46 G&A between them last season. Although I’m a big fan of giving the likes of McAtee and Bobb a chance, I think we still need to sign another winger or midfielder. Kovacic won’t be putting up Gundogan numbers in terms of goal contributions as they are very different profiles. I think we could expect more goals and assists from Bernardo and Foden, but still think we’ll need one more player coming in

I think we will try for Raphinha rather than Dembele.

And besides player swap will be unlikely it will done in separate deal if that ever happen, good for financial book too.

Lost loads of experience. Bobb is the only replacement to Palmer really. And McAtee is basically replacing Perrone in a spot for spot last season.

Left wing is also a one man show.

More games this season, less experience, hence a smaller squad.
