We are in a great position to push on but we need to think about the future. We can’t be putting a lot cash down for a 29 yr old striker. I would love Sanchez and I think he would bag us another trophy this year but I can see more issues with him over the next couple of seasons as better younger strikers come in. Get him for the £20-£25 mill and a great deal anything over and we may regret it.
Can we win the league with this squad yes due to points in the bank but we won’t win it by 12 points. The cracks have been there for a few weeks in performances as our squad isn’t that great if we are honest.
It’s possible David silva sees little game time this year and even if he plays his head will be else where so as it stands we have to plan without silva. Sanchez could fill this spot as cover which must add even more issues for pep to solve.
Can we go on and win 2 domestic cups and champs league with this squad ? For me no. If anything the Carabbo cup is our best chance but we will need our best team out.
We are desperate for a defender and 2 midfielders before Sanchez. I just hope aguero sorts his form out like we know he has. I think he knows he’s gone next summer and Sanchez is a Straight replacement for pep.
The fact this is ongoing tells me Sanchez is desperate for city and hoping we bid more but I’m glad we are not. It’s 50/50 which club he goes to.
We do need some reinforcements in January or our season could unravel. We have many injuries and tired players now, Kev has played every game and looks much slower than pre xmas.
Time for pep to earn his cash now as a few big weeks ahead
