- Manchester City is my team - until I fucking die.
Well, IMO, we're a hamstring 3-month injury to Kompany from trouble at the back.... if that happens it will likely cost us some points; fortunately our counterpress offers a layer of defense so that our back line won't be under so much pressure as last year...Savic played for us 20 times when we won the title, and he was awful back then.
Zouma played for Chelsea and is now at Stoke.
Wasilewski won the title with Leicester.
Why do people keep pretending you need 4 world class centrebacks to win the title?
But this the point - injuries occur. And barring injury, squad rotation to keep players fresh is beneficial.
So yeah... 3 world class CBs and a 4th really good one is very helpful in a title challenge - not to mention a real push towards winning the CL.
