We needed three new defenders and two new midfielders this summer at the very least.

He hasn't delivered.

We will only loan them out if we did sign them

We needed 2 CM's to replace an ageing Yaya and Fernando.

A CB and LB to replace Mangala and Kolarov.

No idea why these areas have been neglected.

It's neglect of the highest order and piss poor from the club. These two areas have hindered us for years yet we've stood idly by and spent fortunes on areas we haven't needed too.

Funny how his biggest fans go quietest when our frailties are exposed the most.

I can't understand it either.

Txiki - "Pep what system are you wanting to implement here at City and what will you need?"

Pep - "Something fairly similar to how my Bayern team was set-up. Starting from the back my keeper needs to be able to play football, My Cbs need to have an extensive passing range and be comfortable under pressure whilst on the ball, I need a midfield that control 65%+ of the game....."

Txiki - "Say no more Pep, young attacking players it is."

We've all been saying the same thing since about December 2012. We addressed it to a certain extent by bringing in Fernandinho in Summer 2013 and Gundogan but what have we done other than that and about left back? I find it utterly bizarre!

Plus Bony, Fernando and Delph who I bought anticipating your arrival and are exactly the type of players you had at Barca and Bayern. Ive got you covered at CB have you seen the tapes of the otters sliding challenges and the mangler has the turning circle of a cross channel ferry.
