Assessment of our business this summer | Poll Added

[Cityfan]

Always difficult to evaluate signings who you've hardly seen play which is the case for two of them.

I've gone for a 7 but it could easily turn into a 5 if Doku and Nunes fail or a 9/10 if they were to really shine. And I feel from what little I've seen that both could go either way though with our scouting and coaching I'm pretty optimistic about two young and obviously talented players.

Really disappointed to lose Gundogan and Palmer. Mahrez and Laporte slightly less so due to their age and recent game time though they've served City really well whilst at the club.

Bellingham would have been nice and I was pretty pro Paqueta from my glimpses of him.

Let's hope were raving about our signings by the end of the season.

I’ll vote once Saudi window is closed if possible

Does 5 / 6 mean squad is same strength as it was at end of season?

Yeah we only won a treble.....

Lucky.

No the bench and options off it at times....I said we were lucky with injuries (which we were as we didnt have many long term ones).

 

[Scaring Europe to Death]

Last Season was the pinnacle, and if anything, we seem to be building for the next ten years by replacing proven (but slightly ageing) quality, with a mix of experience, quality and potential.

For the moment I'd give it a 7, as I don't know whether the two recent signings will hit the ground running or need a few months

However, I'd still rate our chances of winning the PL as nearer to 9

Mixed bag but certainly not bad, lost some great players, bought some players who look like they'll be great and I'd say a couple of potential riskier signings.

Kovacic and Gvardiol look great. Doku and Nunes feel more like time will tell type of signings.

Usually easier to judge a season after the window.

Fantastic window! solid frame work, double pane , storm proof , dippers proof and ffp police proof . Cleaning free .

Got to say I am not that bothered by our transfer business, the club generally know what they're doing and i trust them. Obviously if we get a big name or a potentially good signing, but we don't know how they'll perform under the City way of doing things, how well they'll integrate etc. This are more important than the purchase to me.

for me the period between now and January is more important, how those players are doing, where they play etc.

Wonder if we are a bit short now we’ve lost Gundo, Mahrez, Laporte, Palmer and only brought 3 in. Had hoped to see McAtee develop but feel Alvarez could be sensational this year and keeping Bernardo trumps getting Bellingham imho. Also hope Phillips can do a Lazarus and resurrect his career in our beautiful sky blue. Would be class if we got that Barco kid in last minute or agree he joins in Jan.

 

[Mancini Manus Domini]

I'm so, so happy. Believe me.

Hard to say at the moment as we don't know how the new signings will do and what the effect of losing the people who left will be yet.

Gvardiol looks a very good signing as does Kovacic.

We haven't seen anything of Doku or Nunes yet, but they are both the type of players we need, so overall the window looks fairly decent.

Keeping Bernardo was important also.

I put 7, but if the new signings all bed in quickly it could be a higher mark than that.
