Assessment of our business this summer | Poll Added

[Coatigan]

Gvardiol and Kovacic are not replacements for Gundogan and Mahrez. It's 2 defensive players for 2 attacking midfielders. It doesn't compare.

Who said they were?

Did you watch the last few games with Kovacic btw?

Mitrovic gone for £43M but Laporte for less than £25M. How’s that happened then?

Because ones a striker at a club who didn't want to sell him and the other is a defender who was at the bottom of the pecking order (whether he shouod or not is another question but for Pep he's behind Akanji and Ake)

And Laporte,s £20 million wages

It needs to be factored in when making an assessment of the transfer business. Making the defensive side stronger and attacking side lighter doesn't make it a good transfer window, no matter how good Kovacic and Gvardiol are. If Haaland, Grealish, Bernardo, Foden and KDB starts, there is only Alvarez on the bench as a "senior" attacking option for 5 positions. If it stays the same at the end of the transfer window, I give it a 5/10.

Stupid thread. Could the OP not have waited a couple of weeks, or is he looking to stir the shit?

Prize wum that one , he is shit stirring

oh look time for an update already

So Doku is the Mahrez replacement everyone is crying for

No he's probably not as good as Mahrez right now but he's 21, his future is ahead of him

Capable of playing on both wings and has that explosive pace to give us another edge, really excited bout this signing

Pep doesn't make subs in tight games either regardless of the players on the bench. We haven't signed cover for Rodri however the Kalvin Phillips signing hasn't worked out (we only signed him last Summer)

Bit of a myth, its only the 6th time in his entire City career he hasn't made a single sub in a Premier League game.

Last few season he has rarely made changes and we had more of a stronger squad. And there hasn't been a rush to replace (or even strenghten) our out going players either.

Can we get to the puns already- this thread is bollocks and that'd be the only upgrade.
