It's Quiet thread 14 - 'do one' edition

[doobyedoobye]

besides no left back worth mentioning as a defender and currently our defensive midfielders being either Ferna (who for me is still the best option) or the immobile Rodri (who does have his qualities but cant do it on his own) or Gundogan who for me personally is a waste of space in that role and leaves us hugely over exposed)

Who has a better squad than us?

 

[ancoats]

We have the best squad in the country as it stands. We might not have worldies in every position but our squad is unrivalled

looking at the bench of the games we have played this season says otherwise
ok we can point to injuries and covid-19 taking a big part of the squad out of pep hands, but its still short and 2 or 3 new face are needed, god knows why city have not signed a new striker and left back

 

[ancoats]

It's impossible for every team tpo keep a team fit, we have a better and deeper squad than everybody else. Write down our 21 and compare it to any other teams 21 we'll be stronger.

it was ? but take out sane silva because of them leaving and aguero and jesus being injured all the time
also one proper left back its clear its not as good as we all think

Which striker did you want us to sign?

 

[leo_city]

January window is not even far (if that's the case still), why would the club sign a 3rd attacker when two of their strikers will be fit to start? Spend 70m+ on what if scenarios? We can get a left back or a forward in Jan if it gets that bad. Till then it is fine.

 

[meeesh]

So come on,is Benjani coming or what ?

 

[fredmont]

I think he's shit, but you are right, he simply does not fuck up as much as Mendy does.

If Cancelo could learn to defend even to an average standard, he would be the best option attacking.

Ake will be the most solid option defensively, but imo if you have a cb running around the pitch like a fullback, he'll get injured, so he can't be the main choice every week.

Cancelo's final ball and shots are woeful.

Very rarely happens. But with a fully fit squad. Our bench would be Steffan Stones Cancello Fernandhino Torres Mahrez Jesus. The first 11 is obvious

 

[razman]

Well multiple reports, that unable to move Zini is the main reason for not Getting a new LB. I am pretty sure he would have many takers.

Guess they have left it too late anyway now

Well ,yes it's been stretched with 8 players missing and adding Dias late, doesn't mean it's a smaller squad than anyone elses. We couldn't add a striker and left back without losing players. If w'd been able to sell Zinchenko we'd have bought a left back, we won't buy a striker util Aguero leaves we don't have room.
