Obviously it's not stellar but as people have said replacing Otamendi and Stones with Ake and Dias means at CB we are way stronger.
Leroy didn't play by so Torres is better.

Throw in Foden, Jesus, Rodri are all a year older and I'd say we are wat stronger than last year.

Agree mate....I look at this in a different way tho. Shouldnt we be comparing the squad to the year before? After all that was the standard and the last time we beat Liverpool to the prem. Having Kompany, Sane, younger Fern and younger Silva.......I agree completely that we stronger than last season but if we want to win back the prem, last year shouldnt be our gold standard...

I do think the delay in replacing Kompany has cost us 12months in our rebuild....we cant buy everyone this summer but replacing Kompany last year would have released us to look at LB,CM or striker this window..

Looking forward to seeing the Laporte/Dias partnership grow..

Haha! Similar to the Diaz deal - been linked with him before and probably isn’t first choice but could definitely do a job. Would then allow Bernardo and Phil to be classed as 8’s and then we’d have Raz, Mahrez, Torres and Zaha for the wing spots. Add to the fact that Zaha can play through the middle it wouldn’t be the worst signing in the world. He obviously wants to leave Palace so you’d imagine a deal could be struck.

We have an upmarket version of Zaha in Mahrez, and he in my opinion is not a city player.
