I know Ederson isn’t the best shot stopper on the planet but that’s a bit harsh

Ortega down there with Nunes, are you smoking crack?
I don't think either of those 2 are shit..
Both can do a job, but they both have times where we go.. wtf? They can do better!
Until you get the very bottom tier.. then yes I think they're shit!

Strangely I had him and Sterling on the list but then remembered we signed them a season prior so I removed them from near the top of the list.

Best: Kante
Worst: Isco
Do we call Rodri our best signing EVER or that still belongs on Dennis Law or perhaps Kun?
Kinda conflicted..
The man who broke them with a treble vs
The man who broke them with 93:20 vs
The man who broke them with a relegation

I count him as a Pep signing. I'm sure before he came pep was saying who he wanted. Didn't he phone sterling up to comfort him before he came too? Maybe I'm wrong.Kevin isn't a Pep signing.

Limited mine to a best 5 and worst 5
Best 5
Rodri - Ballon D'Or winner, scored winner in CL final; easy choice
Haaland - broke many records and pivotal in helping us win the treble
Walker - his pace allowed many others to flourish. The best RB the PL has ever seen
Akanji - Signed for peanuts and became integral in the treble winning side, and 2 PL title wins
Bernardo Silva - Throw out this season as his legs have gone; From 2017-2024 he was a gem. Always at his best in the biggest games
Worst 5
Phillips - Simply didnt have the talent or ability to play at our level; looked like a competition winner out of the crowd whenever he played
Bravo - Old cauliflower wrists himself, theres no market for a matador goalkeeper. Awful
Nolito - Had little self-control - nutting an oppo player when 4-0 up for example - and ran like Norman Wisdom; then slagged off the club/Mcr when he left like he was a big star, the little poison dwarf
Nunes - £50m for a waste of time midfielder; he isnt a creative player, he isnt a defensive player, he cant pick a pass, he doesnt score goals, he isnt strong physically. So good hes now a poor Right Back
Mendy - a Car Crash. Zero discipline, always injured and dragged his own and the clubs name through the mud - the fault for 99% of this being himself

Kyle Walker for me is the definitive Pep signing. He was so massively important to how this side has operated for the last 7/8 years that you can almost pin point bad results or bad periods down to him being injured or unavailable. No coincidence that our current decline/transition began when his did. Rodri and Bernardo might be the best footballers that Pep has signed but in terms of how crucial to our success a signing has been, I can't look past Walker.
Still not persuaded that Maximo 'Not Really Here' Perrone is real.

Agree mostly with the OP but would promote Kovacic to the fourth grouping

Yup he is the GOAT!
I think Carson got Grealish motivated into having 2 good months at the right time for City!
Yep that's it!! ;)

I would be swapping stones for haaland, walker for mahrez, marmoush is ridiculously too high, grealish and jesus far too low. Ortega below Carson?
