Even if we manage to finish in the top four, it still will have been a mediocre season at best.
Bravo is amongst one of the worst signings we have made in the last 20 years.
With the possible exception of a fully fit Kompany, none of our current defence are of the required standard to compete for the title.
Whilst Stones is young and certainly has shown glimpses of promise, he cannot be considered a good signing at this juncture considering his astronomical fee.
Otamendi is a difficult one because he's a much better footballer than I expected him to be; it's just a shame he's an average defender who rivals the likes of Suarez at playacting.
Zabaleta, Clichy, Sagna and Kolarov have all been, to varying degrees, great servants to the club but it's time for all four to move on.
When you consider how many transfers there are likely to be, it's to difficult to fathom how we will compete with Chelsea and Tottenham next season.
Pep has certainly had a first season to forget.
