Injuries, losses, VAR decisions have seriously dampened the mood for many City fans.
But there are nice things to look forward to this season.
First, we expect Laporte and Sane back in February or even late January. Give them 5-6 weeks to regain form and then, hopefully without other bad injuries, we will be a formidable unit for the final stages of the competitions, especially the CL.
Second, we know that we have in Foden a world class midfielder in the making. Despite all the gloom about his playing time and status, he will get chances and is about to explode as a top top player.
Third, our new signings are finding their feet in England and can only get better. Rodri is a bit understimated on here, he is brilliant. It's not his fault we have been a bit shaky in defence. Cancelo's ceiling is really high, he is a top player. Angelino is underrated. People judging him on 2 starts and dismissing his ability are really harsh on him. With Cancelo and Angelino (or hopefully Mendy) we can be devastating on the flanks, our attack may get new dimensions.
Fourth, we have a lot of players who are on the verge of entering their prime and hopefully getting even better: Raz, Bernardo, Jesus, Ederson, Stones, Laporte, Cancelo, Angelino.. Raz is on the verge of becoming one of the very best players in the world. Can he get even better and become the best player in the world? Same with Bernardo, who can only get better this season and might be a proper magician for us, apart from covering most distance in the league. Gabby can only get better. He is another one who is being judged harshly by many City fans. His goals per minutes ratio is better than Van Nistelrooy's (!) and he is just 22 y.o. Ederson is another one who can establish himself as the best in the world in his position.
Finally, Kevin. He started the season brilliantly, but got injured. Now he is regaining form and will hopefully give us many magnificent performances this season.
Plenty of things to look forward to.
