That’s not gonna happen. We will sign someone in the month to go. Just have to be patient

Kovacic is the Rodri backup. Rico Lewis will also play DM. As a worst case scenario Phillips is more than fine.Somewhat agree, but relying on the mostly untested youth and Kova to match Mahrez and Gundos goal contributions is a strange decision. Also I don't think Phillips is going to make it here and a proper back up to Rodri is needed.

No. they are signing players that they hope will get them closer. No guarantees all their purchases will work out for them. Rags and Chavs are not the best at improving through purchasesThere’s a cliche that’s often said here that we can’t plan our squad based on the rivals’. That’s, obviously, bullshit. You always need to keep an eye on what everyone is doing as this is a competitive sport. You don’t win in a vacuum. A Formula 1 car is only something in comparison to the performance of others…
At the moment we’re not widening any gap. Instead, we are letting them get closer
If Kevin or Phil get injured then Kova will have to play for them. I hope Rico will be able to do the job, as Phillips is not more than fine.Kovacic is the Rodri backup. Rico Lewis will also play DM. As a worst case scenario Phillips is more than fine.

You don’t overtake someone who has dominance in one transfer window or one season. It’s a process. It happened with Liverpool too. Arsenal started it two seasons ago, grew a lot last season and are making the right signings again and will grow some more. United also improved under Ten Hag and they seem to be addressing their issues. Is the difference we saw in the FA Cup final really so large that they can’t improve? I’d argue that the comparison between the 6-3 to the 2-1 in the PL last season showed they grew during the season, ridiculous refereeing decisions aside. And I have an unpopular take about Chelsea. I don’t think they are a “mess”. They have a good manager now and yes, they are spending a lot, but the squad they are building is young, with players tied to long contracts that will in the long term possibly make them quite the forceNo. they are signing players that they hope will get them closer.

Lewis and Phillips (if he stays, which I don’t know he will) won’t be trusted for big games. Which is an issue when we don’t have Gundogan, and why it is decadent to have Kovacic there insteadIf Kevin or Phil get injured then Kova will have to play for them. I hope Rico will be able to do the job, as Phillips is not more than fine.

And also why another top midfielder is necessary?

Don’t understand the Foden will replace Mahrez goals shout… So Phil is gonna double his goal output next season?. Need an winger/att midfielder in asap simple really.
