New striker?

We won't sign striker, not a top one anyway.
You can't have Aguero on bench and add one. I don't think we have free spots to cover for foreign players. Especially when we have Foreign CB coming.
Aguero is first choice when fit so stop gap won't work. We won't sign without selling
 
He was a figure of hate, a great player, scorer of important goals and a gentleman who took to the club and City.

He and Kolarov took a lot of unnecessary abuse neither deserved.

I'd agree with all that apart from 'great player'. He was very good. However, there were a couple of occasions where if his shorts had pockets, his hands would have spent most of their time in them.

50 goal in 130 games, great player for us, always a threat.

'Great' is a subjective term, to be fair. If I was thinking of great players who have played for City, it would be at Bell, Silva, Lee, Aguero, Kompany, Yaya level.

I like Edin and I thought he was likeable. Certainly not a hater.
 
No striker worth his salt is going to come here knowing full well he is third choice. Unless we are going to dig up some free transfer and throw him on the bench.

We simply cannot bring in another striker whilst Aguero is here. Current injury or not.

There is a shortage of world class strikers out there, even shorter list of ones who would make a move.
This theory is oft repeated but is it valid? It’s well possible that Kun will be out for two months, then out again for another spell or even two during the course of the season. So, bringing rotation into account, a player such as Dybala could get serious game time.

There’s also a possibility this is Kun’s last or last-but-one season. Whichever, it‘s unlikely to be a full season with his injury record.

Legend though he is, we should be planning now for Sergio’s departure. We’ve (rightly) played fair with him, which gives us some leeway in managing his eventual exit.

I wouldn’t bet on Delap getting many minutes this season. There’s nothing to suggest Pep will risk anything on a 17-year old.
