You never know with Pep who his favorite at the moment will be, or of the injury situations. I have a feeling we won’t be seeing Akanji as a definitive starter for this season, for instanceI very much doubt he’d be content with that
We might if we're using them as full backs as well dont you think? Which with the current squad make up and tactics, we certainly will imhoHe would,but we aren't keeping 6 top class centre backs.
We'll also have Alvarez and maybe McAtee and Bobb looking for minutes.Think a right footed 10 like olmo or wirtz suits our system better than out and out wingers. We’ll have Grealish, Bernardo and Foden (+wirtz or olmo) for wingers. Seems balanced.
Isn't that what we did last year though? That didn't turn out too bad :)If one player is depth for 3 positions, a striker is being utilised as a winger and an academy winger who's going out on loan are seen as good depth, we have a lot problems on our hands.

I do agree we probably have 1 CB too many and Laporte is the obvious one to go, but all depends on other clubs paying for him. He might be 1st choice all of a sudden again. Pep does seem to favour different players over different seasons. For me, Laporte is better than Akanji, yet he started nearly every game last season. So who knows.I cant see the likes of Laporte sitting on his arse here when he can be the main man elsewhere.
Laporte looked like one of the best around at the World Cup.I cant see the likes of Laporte sitting on his arse here when he can be the main man elsewhere.
This is a very tough profile to find if Sam is right
