I dismissed the Coutinho story as sounded like click bait when I saw it, I could be wrong. I'm sure I read that they confirmed they weren't going back for Fekir but maybe I'm mixing the story up.
I had just assumed they would be adding a first choice player or two, and at least a couple of decent squad players - it just seemed the natural thing to do. Like you say, surely they need backup? I won't lose any sleep if they don't!
You can’t stand still when you have success, we know that more than anyone when City have won the league in the past they have gone to dust the season after.
It’s going to be an interesting season from our point of view to see if the players come back in the mindset to repeat what they have done the last two seasons. Winning leagues are difficult if they stand there and admire what they have done 3 titles in a row won’t happen. I don’t think Pep will let them slide into that mindset though.
