Sell Mahrez for starters so its 3 positions and 7 playersAre we going for both Haaland and Messi ?
Haaland, Messi, Aguero, Jesus, Foden, Torres, Sterling and Mahrez - 8 players for 3 positions. That's overkill. Just need to replace Aguero with Haaland, and we are good.
Aguero cant/wont be play every game...injuries are starting to take their toll on him...It will allow Haaland to be brought on gradually which is something Pep likes to do with young players (B.Silva when he joined, Torres at the moment and Foden as well)
Messi wouldnt play every game either - he isnt playing every game for Barca...cant imagine Messi starting against Cheltenham or Swansea in the cup for instance.
Foden could end up playing a little deeper as Pep has alluded to previously.
