What is missing is leaders. No one on that pitch showed any leadership.

My little brother just text me that, he's loving it , he hated Cooper, told me the favourite is Moyes to take the job next then Potter. Think Moyes would do well there.

Everyone is average this year. Its annoying, any city team of the past seasons wins this title comfortably.

No , he’s good defensively on the wing he tracks back, he doesn’t lose the ball and wins fouls. We’ve got no other options on the bench for midfield energy wise so might as well try him there

Maybe try Grealish in the middle.

Don’t think he would be on the bench with Ake and Stones injury prone bodies.

Since we don’t have Rodri we should defend deep and break with pace. Look at the goals Haaland scored for his national team mostly runs in behind

Sterling at city. He missed chances yes but his numbers speak for themselves. Sterling hit double figures in every campaign at the Etihad, exceeding 20 goals in three consecutive seasons between 2017 and 2020. His total tally of 131 leaves him 10th on City’s all-time top scorer’s list, just...

He’s right , Sterling was one of the most dangerous wingers we’ve ever had. He might’ve missed chances but he scored a ton. Mahrez the same dragged us through champions league games. Produced in vital games such as Spurs and PSG at home. We right now have zero wingers with end product that can...

Could see us raid Sporting as well

Viana might continue his sporting approach here. Signs the players that have potential to be world class who are young. So I’m thinking the guy from Shakhtar etc. easier to do a rebuild when the price isn’t extreme.

They soak up pressure and counter quickly with balls in behind. Similar to Sporting. It’s like all teams have switched to that style of play

We struggle so badly against teams that transition quickly from defence to attack. The worst thing for us is that teams have just started playing that this season. Quick transitions and counter attacks have become popular again from managers. Remember Pep saying that it’s so important to win...

The problem that is killing us is Peps loyalty to some of these players. Walkers legs have gone but Pep convinced him to stay. Gundo is to slow but Pep won’t drop him. Bernardo is having an awful season. Stone can’t stay fit. It’s earned loyalty from what they’ve done for Pep , titles etc but...

The fact that Rodri is so vital that one injury to him makes us fall apart is a joke.

Raid Spain. Release clauses everywhere. Zubimendi for one, clubs have no choice with release clauses

Rodri is the system. Without him it doesn’t work

Bad recruitment Injury prone and old players in crucial areas for Peps tactics No threat if Haaland doesn’t play at his best Midfield slow and lethargic No solution to counter attacks. Rodri is the most vital part of the system , without him the system doesn’t work

Poor recruitment has left us like this.
