If City don't sign a good CB and we go into the season with Laporte, Stones Otto and Garcia, potentially we are looking at a difficult season at the back.
If Laporte or stones are out for any length of time not sure the remaining cb options fill me with confidence over the course of 4 course competitions.
There is reason most if not all of the top 6, wouldn't go with a 19 or 20 year old at the back for any length of time.
They are just not ready unless your de ligt and he isn't even the finished article yet.
City managed Foden well in terms of appearances last season and he is considered approaching ready to hold down and or fight for a first team slot this season
I don't see City giving Garcia more game time than they gave Foden with his development in mind.
This would leave are remaining CB's over the course of a season with a lot of games to play, too many games.
City need a good CB or it's going to be difficult.
