Makes perfect sense...Ake and Torres were done low key (partly due to them havign to cause of the pandemic situation)

I think with the squad away now in Lisbon that will also help keeping the press of the players and managers back a little .....

Probably no more signings now till our champs league participation comes to and end. Then the fun begins!

I feel like Aké and Torres could come in without too many people getting uncomfortable. Garcia said he wants to go, the squad knows Kompany needed replacing. Sané left.

They fit into existing open slots.

The next transfers though...they're coming in to replace people in the squad, or at least push them down the pecking order. Like @twosips said, that's gonna mess with people's heads.
 
Don't believe transfer rumours / signings will affect any current players concentration in the slightest. Playing for a club like City they know full well the club are always looking to strengthen. It's part of the challenge. Three games and they could be European Champions they really won't be arsed about next season at this stage.

Yeah I agree.
Ota has accepted his fate anyway I guess and would fight to win the CL.
Going back to Valencia would suit him well too.

Garcia yes is in a mess but that's not our fault.

And Stones honestly won't be on the pitch anyway in the big mentality matches coming up, defo not ahead of any other defender and only in absolute emergency.
 
The low key stuff wasn't a coincidence. Can you imagine being the current CBs and seeing the club post loads of new videos about their new defender, with all the focus from fans replying about how they're gonna replace Otamendi or Stones in the comments? Players that literally might have to play for us again. Yeah...players are focused, but they still sit on their phones like everyone else during down time. Pep knows that, and he'll want to remove any tiny distraction, hence why we won't see any big signings until the season is over properly now.

think you are spot on

Thats why laporte, ferna and if needed otamendy are only playing as CB. While garcia is more or less set to go may be stones as well. At least Ota is not about to make fuss whether he goes or not. Plus he is too mature for that. .May be stones is not that mature and that he is about to hit the peak years of his career. Ota has more or less passed his best years.
 
If we move
Leroy, Stones, Ota, Garcia, Tossin, Zin & Gundo allowed 20 how many central mids do we need) out 180 mill plus
Bring in
Ake, Torres, KK, Aouar & yank GK in 190 mill plus
800k a week in wages out with Dave Bravo
should leave a tidy amount for a striker 170 to 200 and 300k wages
around 20 in and 20 out of the academy if we are planning a 180-200 mill spend
