Lucas Paqueta investigated by FA for alleged betting breaches

Assuming Doku still happens.

Gundogan out - Kovacic in.
Mahrez out - Doku in.
Laporte out - Gvardiol in.

I don't see how we're weaker. Palmer has obviously come on leaps and bounds and McAtee and Bobb are good enough to pick up a dozen games each.
Doku and Kovacic are both downgrades in the short term, in my opinion.

If we don't bring in another creative player then there's no way we aren't weaker than last year, seeing as de Bruyne looks to be out for half the season

Nothing major though, I still think we're comfortably the best team in the league
 
The decision not buy enzo fernandez along with Alvarez looks even more ridiculous. Ah well at the least the club have made a huge profit selling the academy kids this summer, net spend champions you’ll never sing that,
IIRC the club were still interested in Enzo pre world cup but after his performances must’ve realised that at that point it’d be too late to get him for a bargain and Boehly swooped in
 
Midfield options at present: Rodri, Phillips, Kovacic, Bernardo, Foden, Grealish, Palmer, Mcatee, Bobb. Enough there?
I would say 5 established players (Rod/Kov/Bernardo/Foden/Grealish) for 5 places. With support from youngsters and Phillips who is just hanging around like a bad smell.

Not enough for me no, 2 short at least imo!!
 
You surely aren’t judging the midfield/ the team on one game early in the season?

Our squad is still be far the best in the league, we probably need one or two, but it’s not ridiculous

Kovacic is a lovely player but wont create the same or score like Gundo did, Mahrez created and chipped in with goals and hasnt been replaced and the best in the world could be missing for half a season? I think its fair to say its concerning to say the least?
