Yes and that paid off, however, an injury to Laporte and we’re in a massive massive hole.
Beside lacking a Left Footed player at CB, a "Top Drawer" at CB was not the main cause of our problems this season.
It was an issue, but not the biggest. It's just the obvious thing that most people focus on to try and explain our problems this season.
& at 20 years old Claudio Gomes is for the loan/get sold. He himself would rather a permanent move.

I disagree. CB’s were amateurish at times. The main issue was certainly the pressing from midfield causing them to be exposed but individually, other than Silva, our biggest issue was a lack of someone good enough to play alongside Fernandinho. We ain’t winning anything with Otamendi at 32 or John Stones in the mentality fragility he’s displayed, so it certainly is our one of two biggest issues.

Not sure about that Stones and Otamendi had pretty poor seasons without Laporte beside them. Fernandinho excellent as he at the basics isn’t a natural centre back and is still adjusting the role.
Another season without a Kompany replacement gives Liverpool a head start.
We’ve already pretty much lost Sané’s X factor that was so good against Liverpool. He’s scored and assisted against them regularly as well as winning a penalty at Anfield. That’s been a significant loss this season.

Ezzy you know the square route of fuck all pal.
Not sure why posters are so hostile towards Ezzy personally .
If at the end of the transfer window nothing comes of his predictions then he will look foolish, and if he is right then people can start to take notice .
Not sure that Super Joey Hart has contributed much of interest to the forum.
4 Done
Houssem Aouar (22)
Thiago Almada (19)
Rayan Ait Nouri (19)
Amad Traoré (18)
3 Left.
Mohamed Ihattaren (18)
Eduardo Camavinga (18)
Alessandro Bastoni (21)
So we are going to loose Silva and Sane and replace them with Aouar, Almada, Amad Traore, Ihattaren and give more game time to Foden Barraf and perhaps Doyle and Bernabie does not really seem to make much sense

In due time you will then. but just remember that for the past 2 years:
we have had 6 TOP Internationals in Attack.
we have had 6 TOP Internationals in Midfield.
I know of one manager who rather enjoys a bloated squad. it Gives him the chance to tinker and overthink to a greater extent.
you have to be 22 years old to be on the A list CL & Prem League list.

Sorry @Ezzy I didn't really mean foolish , that was rude and unintentional. No offence intended.
What I really mean't was that your information would be considered as " less reliable ".
I think some people don't like when someone says a deal is done when nothing is signed yet. I remember few summers ago, you had some people saying Jorginho was done and while their information about the very mutual interest was true, we saw it could change very quickly as the market is very volatile.Not sure why posters are so hostile towards Ezzy personally .

If you look at the top journalist on transfers like Fabrizio Romano, he will tell you the strong interest of some clubs for some player but will hold on the "Here we go" until it is done done.
Di Marzio said Neymar was signing for Barça last year and it didn't materialize and he got a lot of shit for that.
