Different wording, the result is still the same though.

We have no space in our squad for new arrivals. It is one in one out already. Aguero and fernandinho leaving frees up two spaces, doesnt matter if they are home grown or not. For a third to arrive, a third player would have to leave (or be excluded from the CL squad).
Thanks, clear explanation. I nominate Mandy to free up a space. If he won’t / can’t leave I would exclude him from the CL squad and backfill with a traffic cone.
 
he is not going anywhere neither is nathan or ferran , some people need to give their heads a wobble
Some players might want to leave tho. Laporte spoke to the media about his playing time not so long ago. Torres will be here next season.

If the player is not willing to accept their role within the squad then they need to speak with their agent about a move.

I have a feeling that if we win the champions league a few players will want out. Finances might be a problem with Covid. We might need incoming funds to go after Haaland.
 
Constantly rotating your CBs is not preferable and stones / Dias will get the majority of games.

That could be the case but a lot can happen in the off season, no-one thought Stones would even be at City, let alone playing at this level, 12 months ago.

I think we've learn't our lesson after Vinny left and Laporte got injured, we can't afford to let that happen again.

Maybe Ake leaves and Harwood-Bellis steps in, but i would be shocked if we let Laporte leave, in fact i wouldn't be surprised if he's starting at CH next season.
 
Aouar seems a no brainer at that price

Although personally, I would prefer us to go for a more physical player to alternate with Rodri/play as a B2B CM, Aouar seem Gundogan esq in that he can play the holding midfield role but not as a tackler, more a deep playmaker

Would we get 3 midfielders (Aouar, Grealish and the physical CM) when we need a striker? Doubt it

We do have space for the PL squad list mate. I didn’t say we would, I said we could.

Do we need Carson or Mendy in the CL squad?

I totally agree it’s an unlikely scenario, but facts are facts pal
