Centre back options

1st Choice CB is Kompany
2nd Otamendi
3rd Stones

Does Real Madrid, Barcelona , Bayern , Athletico Madrid or Chelsea have more CBs than us?

If you include kids who have no league match experience and players who have been shipped out on loan because the manager doesn't rate them, possibly. At this stage we have 3 CBs who thus far Pep has considered worthy of consideration for first team duties. And two of them only tend to play well if they have the third one baby sitting them.

Tosin have no experience. he still looks awkward vs Rag.
loan him out, play regularly and get some experience.
Mangala and Denayer will be on loan.
one lengthy injury to Kompany, City will have to settle with Otamendi and Stones in most games.
have you not learn anything from last season?
the different is, this time there is no more Kolarov as alternative CB.
 
I hope Pep knows what he is doing because it seems to me we can spend as much as we want, 1 injury to Kompany and the season could be over.

Unless Pep has someone lined up he should be properly blooding Adarabioyo, working on getting Stones to be more ;level headed and Otamendi working better with him.

Major oversight if we fuck up because 1 centerback gets injured and the rest cant cope.
 
Perhaps we are one injury to Kompany away of a 'shortage' but what if he doesn't get injured, we can't have two 30mil CB on the bench.
 
I'm not worried about CB. Pep himself has said we need cover for the position and that was during the season when we still had Kola. Now that's he off I'm very, very confident we'll purchase a CB.

Maybe it's won't be a big money buy but we'll get one.

Or Pep will decide to keep Mangala or Denayer which IMO wouldn't be too bad.
