OMG Chilwell, another SICK NOTE. We need players that are going to be able to play, not on the side-lines, injured, watching us getting fatigued because we lack squad depth.

How can the club forsee that a player kicked off and wanted to leave only 4 days ago?No you misunderstood. I think Cancelo should go 100%……it’s not planning to sign a replacement and our general LB issue that I’m unhappy about.
We all know City plan signings well in advance but sometimes something happens with a player that means plans change.
No doub City have full back targets for the future it's a question of whether can can do a deal with one of the targets tiday

It's not been four days. It's been happening since the beginning of the month and he's a player renowned for being a right Mariah Carey.
The club have had plenty of time to put something together.
I think we are already in trouble, at the rate we are going.yep! Our rivals all strengthening and we are an injury or two away from trouble.
That’s good to hear because I don’t understand the ones on here that want Walker gone all of a sudden. But with the emergence of Rico thought we’d be ok on the right, unless we see Rico actually play in midfield? That’s saying a top right back comes in.We don't need a lot of players, we need three key, top shelf ones.
A top class midfielder, a full-back for both sides.
Pep has made his mind up on Rico, as he has done on Ake. He loves Jack.
Walker won't be going anywhere just yet.
Phillips isn't going anywhere, nor Mahrez and Pep wants Gundo to stay for another year.
Anything else is dependent on Laporte and Bernie leaving in the summer.
Foden will become even more important and receive extra responsibility.
City spend £300m this summer on quality not quantity.
Gundo for an extra year makes so much sense as well.
A lot of people think we will go after a winger but im not so sure, Alvarez will be getting a new contract and want assurances on playing time so may see him play wide, Mahrez and Jack and clearly staying I don’t think there is room for a Leao just yet.
I hope Bellingham is the top class midfielder, he really is a special talent.
I agree quality is most important. And I maybe none of the players I mention are good enough. I don’t really watch anyone other than City so I don’t know.We don't need a lot of players, we need three key, top shelf ones.

However no point in spending money if we don’t need to. So i suggest some free transfers.
Even on your more conservative numbers in and out. We are still looking at a hefty bill and a number of possible surprises. What if Laporte and Bernie leave ? What if Gundogan doesn’t extend. What if someone else wants out. Why not get someone on a free now if good enough even if we don’t need them desperately ready for maybe next summer. We got Akanji seemingly not needing a CB and everyone was surprised and he is now a bargain and key with fullback issues I would normally go for as few changes as possible like yourselves but others seem to be very worried about the age of players or want a new toy.
For example look at the left backs on the list a lot of people want maybe even two left backs you suggest one for each side. Why not get two left backs on a free and a right back if you want. I would be ok if we stick with what we have at RB. Can Loan Gomez if needed was he not supposed to be a CFG singing originally. I still think he will come good though.

Apparently Perrone can play LBLet’s hope perrone can play lb
I'd say we are already in trouble over the LB position. Ake isn't a full time LB.yep! Our rivals all strengthening and we are an injury or two away from trouble.

Left back has been a problem for ages. If we had options then this wouldn't be a huge problem. 4 days has fuck all to do with it. It takes a second to get a bad injury and the result till the end of the season is the same.How can the club forsee that a player kicked off and wanted to leave only 4 days ago?

He probably is for us. We have plenty of centre backs, so could see him playing more at LB than CB.I'd say we are already in trouble over the LB position. Ake isn't a full time LB.

Sick of hearing about 'flapping'. Football only works because people get emotionally attached to their team. When the team isn't doing as well as expected, being critical and discussing exactly what's gone wrong is not only completely reasonable, it's a natural extension of the entire point of spectator sports. If this forum was just people pretending everything was going swimmingly, who does that actually benefit?
Just in general, to be honest.
We've made some amazing signings over the last six or seven years but we tend to just chill whenever there's a position in urgent need of filling.
I said it yesterday and I'll say it again, I don't understand how the club will do everything in their power to gain even the most seemingly insignificant advantage over every other club we're competing against, from counteracting the strengths of relegation candidates to telling ball boys to play with intensity for ninety minutes. And yet, when it comes to signing players in positions we need we're like "nah, mate. Tactics, innit."
They’ll get a shock when Pep goes because who ever the next manager will be he will struggle to get as much from a small squad as Pep does! It’s like we have Pep we don’t need any replacements he will sort it…
I'd say we are already in trouble over the LB position. Ake isn't a full time LB.
We have pep he can throw Laporte Lewis philips even foden there! The clubs answer to it all is>>>
“We Have Pep” “He will sort it out”

Was Cancelo ? In fact the number of games in the last 7 years we've played with a full time left back I would guess is a very small amount.I'd say we are already in trouble over the LB position. Ake isn't a full time LB.
