Not necessarily true Mat. Money didn't get Ederson either. We have kept Ortega and Bernardo Silva is still a City player. Dani Olmo is staying at Red Bull Leipzig and Wirtz is at Bayer Leverkusen for one more season. I have a feeling Barella will still be an Inter player once the window shuts.

For me, that's short in midfield. Doku is a project player, not a starter. With KDB out, we have Rodri, Kovacic and Foden as the only available options since Bernardo starts at RW. I don't think Doku/Palmer would start ahead of these 4 in most cases. That leaves us vulnerable and short in trusted midfield options.Doku and keeping Cole Palmer is good.

I mean, Veratti is still available, lol. I don't see it - I think Pep doesn't want him in the squad, his age is a problem, plus there may be something about PSG and City not wanting to deal with each other. But... he fits the bill technically, and he is available.
Doku and Palmer as squad players then, but my point stands. We have 3 "trusted" midfield options for 3 spots, 1 of which is knackered and can't carry on playing every game. For me, a midfielder is a must, more important than a RW, since we have Bernardo, Palmer, Bobb, Gomez, and McAtee for RW. Of course, we could use 2 or even 3 new players since we are thin as a squad, so any good addition would help.Doku is a squad player.

Rodri playing too much, Palmer wants out because he's not playing enough, Phillips doesn't want to move even though he isn't playing at all. This is all very confusing. Anybody know the exact number of games everyone wants to play and how many they need so as not to want to leave?

Theres one problem there is that hes shit and if he plays were considerably weakerSimple answer is to play Phillips if he isn't moving. We signed him for the purpose of covering Rodri
