To win the title this season was always going to be tough, two quality full backs were needed, we addressed that to a certain extent but are still on thin ice with no top notch cover for either position, Danilo can fill in but not replace either in quality imo, to go into a long hard season with 2 strikers , with one young & adjusting to the premier league as well was not ideal which is why we wanted Sanchez .
We started well with my fingers crossed we could keep it going as long as possible, it was almost inevitable we would have injuries but to lose Mendy for the season & Aguero for a length of time that we don't know is a major blow . What injuries are ahead ?
Titles are won and lost on injuries & suspensions , fine margins , we are weaker now & the title is going to be incredibly difficult to win now. I wouldn't make us favourites that's for sure.
