Re: Squad strength picture - City, Arsenal, Chelsea & United

The squad depth is of crazy quality but our starting 11 isn't as good as Barca, Real, Munich etc yet in my opinion. We aren't far off though!

Only problem is there is only three English players there and we can only have 21 for champions league with five English players included, who is going to miss out.

I count 4 HG - Hart, Clichy, Milner & Lampard

Richard Wright? 3rd Choice keeper...

I know we have others Sinclair Richards Boyata home grown , but some of the players here will have to miss out.

Garcia will be sold and Negredo is the obvious player to leave out of the champions league squad. Of the 5 homegrowns, 1 has to be from our academy. That's why Boyata signed a new deal, because Micah is history. So the 5 homegrown players will be Hart, Clichy, Boyata, Milner and Lampard, with us using an U21 goalkeeper as third choice keeper instead of Wright.

Agreed we are a Centre Half short (Possibly Mangala?) and we don't have Messi, Bale, Suarez or Ronaldo type star
Aguero could possibly step up to this level though!?
I think if you added Messi, Bale, Suarez or Ronaldo to our team you wouldn't make the above statement?

We also haven't got the benefit of referees being in our favour yet!
