It's Quiet Thread 15 - Txiki Blinders

So who are we going to go for next season? The left back and striker market seems weak

Exactly. If you urgently need something the price has to be paid.

The board are trying to negotiate with no leverage as everyone knows we have no striker.

No we haven't.
Our manager didn't trust either Ferna or Rodri in our biggest game last season.
If that's the case then we should have addressed this.
We have not replaced Aguero (I know that's impossible) with a high quality replacement that puts fear into teams.
Left back is an issue, but one we have ignored for years.

To ignore one or two of these areas is questionable BUT to ignore all three is poor business practice.

The point is he probably should have trusted one and we’d have had our best ever season. The fact they didn’t play doesn’t mean they need replacing.
We have a player playing centre forward that will score more than Aguero last season, by a long way. We’ve ignored left back because we are happy with what we have.

Might be wrong here but don't City have something going with Spirting???

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

How is it a good window when our chairman said we will replace our greatest ever goal scorer and we haven’t

Replace him with who?

 

[CityBluez]

Wasn't from our left side, if I remember correctly came from midfield area originally. To be fair I've never been able to watch it since the day....Still hurts too much

Man City defender Zinchenko criticised for Champions League final display

Oleksandr Zinchenko came under criticism at half-time of Manchester City's Champions League final against Chelsea

He failed to track Kai's dribble. I like zinchenko. He is not a LB but tries his best. We need a serious LB in the club.

Same with DM. Fern legs are gone. We only have rodri, an injury to rodri and our season goes to waste. We should have invested in LB and DM if striker was unavailable. We should have gone after Nuno and bissouma

& Martial mate. Don’t forget Martial

I've given up there. A cheeky little bid would have been nice.

Proven goalscorer and serial winner etc, etc, etc.....

How is it a good window when our chairman said we will replace our greatest ever goal scorer and we haven’t

And will invest in key positions... bought Grealish

 

[malg]

Replace him with who?

Ronaldo.....

I’m sure we will be fine, you can’t win the league every season but we have enough to challenge. Champions league may be tougher dont think we will go as far this year.

There is no one else on the market genuinely I’m so confused
