You see out academy kids are never ready while we wouldn't hesitate to spend on kids from other teams. I am telling you Pep would rather play Bernardo or sterling as false 9 or play no striker than give chance to academy striker even it's for few minutes. People here will. Justify he is not ready paper thin physically not ready

Is it me or do those stats look make it look as if we do not have a stand out CB would assume Laporte would be miles better also looks like Ake is not great and finally how come supposedly weak Stones wins the arial duels

I thought the same. Laporte's purely defensive stats didn't look great. However his through balls out of defence and passing stats were great. Part of the art of defending isn't captured by those stats.

I would expect a player like Otamendi to win more duels because they relish the physical side of the game. Much of defending is about position and shepherding forwards out of dangerous areas and stats don't pick that up.

Last season laporte wasn't great full-stop. That has to be admitted but of course he was recovering from injury for most of it.

City originally thought Aguero could be fit for Real Madrid - 27 July 2020.

Now, it's 50/50 if he makes the bench vs. Wolves, 21 September 2020.

He is 2 full months behind the recovery they thought he would have, and this meniscus injury which is supposed to put you out for 4-6 weeks has now seen him out for more than 12.

As we get into the last 3 weeks of the transfer window, that's the position that is making me worry. If he's in and out of the side with a bad knee, this season is far too condensed for Jesus to be the only striker.

This bothers me as well. There are players who develop chronic problems because of lack of cartilage. I think Micah was badly affected by this. It's an unknown.

I think it was about a year ago that people said Aguero is now pain-free and we will see a better player. I forget when exactly this was but it didn't last.
