I'm not too sure.
When I look at Silva/De Bruyne/Aguero/Fernandinho etc etc, you could add a couple more, there isn't a club team in the world that would say no to those players.
It really is remarkable that our core problem this season appears to be scoring goals.
I think the responsibility of that lies in the system not fitting into the league.
I get what your saying about those 4 and maybe include Yaya (for his technical ability) but the rest squad either doesn't have enough the technical aspect, are still relatively inexperience/young (Sane, Sterling, Stones) or are completely over the hill.
I think Pep could easy go out tomorrow and buy a new back 4, possibly another striker and a couple of midfielders.
In a couple of years time, how many will be here from the current squad?
I'll include the realistic ones that will probably still be here:
Bravo (Maybe)
Otamendi (Not so sure, squad player?)
Stones (Maybe)
Fernandinho (Maybe, squad player minimum)
Sterling
De Bruyne
Silva (Not so sure)
Aguero (Probably)
Sane (Not in the squad today but should start)
Kompany (Has a chance if he ever gets fit)
Iheanacho (Will be in the squad)
Gabriel Jesus
So that's 11-12 players out of a 23-25 man squad. So in the next couple of years we may need to turn over half a squad, so it's tough to judge the style yet.
I mean I guess we'll find out in 12-24 months time.
