SUBS: Given, Boateng, Zabaleta, Milner, A.Johnson, Balotelli and Dzeko

^ This but I'm thinking with the recent comments we'll have Nasri instead of Sanchez, I'd be happy with either of them.

I think there's more to come from Kolarov, Milner, Dzeko & Yaya

The season finished with City as strong as anyone.

We need 2 players ideally. But it won't be easy to sign better players than what we have. Lots of things have to fall in place. And new players may just be back up to what we have. i.e to create a squad from whom we can always rest 4-5 players and keep everyone fresh.

But do you think he is really worth 44M? hmm

Hell no!!! There are only 4 players worth over 40 million. Messi, Ronaldo, Iniesta, and Rooney. everyone else isn't.
 
-------------------Hart

----------Kompany----Lescott
Richards------------------------Kolarov

-------------De Jong
------------------------Yaya

-------------------Silva
-------Nasri-------------------Bale

-------------------Dzeko

BN: Aguero *Rotate starting with Nasri and Bale*, Balotelli *Rotate starting with Dzeko*, Milner *Cover for everyone in the midfield, will play a big role*, A.Johnson *Regular impact sub*, Vertonghen *He and Bale cover Kola at LB depending on the match up + Lescott cover*, Zabba, Barry & Kolo
 
I thought Nasri was best used as an AMC not a winger, isn't that what the Arsenal fans keep moaning about with Wenger playing him wide?

On the left wing. On the right he looks good too. But the left has been meh :/

Here's the squad that I'd love to see... My ideal lineup would be 4141 with DeJong holding, Balotelli as the main striker and Tevez, Silva, Sanchez and Yaya cooking up magic in between. I'm missing a few kids but I'd hope they'd be off on loan. I counted 10 English players so there is room on that front.

Goalkeepers
1 Hart *1
2 Given
3 Taylor *2

Defenders
4 Zabaletta
5 Richards *3
6 Kompany
7 Lescott *4
8 Cahill *5 (we need decent CM cover)
9 Toure
10 Kolarov
11 Baines *6 ('cos we can't rely on Kolarov for a whole season)

Holding/Central Midfielders
12 DeJong
13 Barry * 7
14 Yaya
15 Milner *8
16 Mulumbu (cos we are light at CM and he's good value imo)
17 M.Johnson * 9 (one last desperate hope that he'll be fit and prove himself)

Attacking Midfielders / Forwards
18 Silva
19 Tevez (presuming he'll stay but plays behind a main striker)
20 Balotelli (my main striker but I suspect he'll play deeper more often)
21 Sanchez (cos everyone raves about him and we lack pace)
22 A.Johnson *10 (providing he decides to play for the team)
23 Nzogbia ( we need pace but someone who can handle not always starting)

Targetmen
24 Dzeko
25 Caicedo ('cos we need another pure striker so why not give him a real chance)
