And give him Kuns vacated number 10 shirt as well.At this rate we’ll be signing Diego Carlos for £70m in the closing stages of the window.

We've probably just lost 30 goals, so best get back to building a team.

Plan B.....BaleNow the Messi circus is over please let's get this lad or if not move on to plan b
Txiki needs to drop his pride and go to talk to De Laurentiis personally, instead of sending this Ramadani who may have made a deal with De Laurentiis that the more they can charge City the higher fee goes into Ramadani's pocket...

Negotiating for Koulibaly through just the agent while Otamendi is still at the club lol. Shambles
Having spent most of last season with two fit centre half's, (don't include Ferni) we'll probably start this season with five!
Quite a few were down to them two clowns at left back and guess what they are still our top choices for that position .Half the season we had Laporte missing through injury, he's back and we have brought in Ake.
In those 9 defeats, which goals specifically are you talking about as being purely CB's to blame?

They aren’t, think Ake is second choice maybe first. Starting there for Holland tonight.Quite a few were down to them two clowns at left back and guess what they are still our top choices for that position .
The issue is having 3 of those fit but not good enough. Otamendi, Fernandinho and Stones. Aké and Laporte the only fit ones but will just rotate as expectedHaving spent most of last season with two fit centre half's, (don't include Ferni) we'll probably start this season with five!

Unless there's another twist in the Messi saga then this transfer becomes increasingly important.
The Lyon game showed that Pep didn't trust or believe in the players he had to play their normal attacking game. To play so defensively suggests just one or two signings isn't enough. Ahsan suggested 2 more players besides Messi were being worked on, hope that's still coming to fruition.

I agree totally, Otimendi is past his best, Fernandinho should never have been forced into playing their, and Stones poor form hasn't passed, really hope we can start with Laporte, Koulibaly, Aké and Stones (giving him a final chance to regain his form)

We have great team that underperformed last season for lots of reasons. Few more new faces would be great. If and it is a big if we get the defence to tighten up and press like we did 2 season ago then we will be hard to beat. I am more concerned about VAR to be honest. It had a demoralising effect on us all players included.
More than okay giving Stones a final chance yeah but one injury and we'd be in a crisis again. Shame because I've always wanted him to be the Kompany replacement but he's just not taken that next step, aside copying his injury record.I agree totally, Otimendi is past his best, Fernandinho should never have been forced into playing their, and Stones poor form hasn't passed, really hope we can start with Laporte, Koulibaly, Aké and Stones (giving him a final chance to regain his form)
Looks like we're set for the season thenAke playing very well at LB for the Netherlands
