No one has both their out and out strikers missing. Aguero would not have missed what sterling did. I love sterling but his end product is still no where near a striker.

Would you say any of your 6 are things for which a manager has some responsibility? I only ask, because there is no explicit mention there of the manager and his decisions. If you think there’s no blame with him fair enough, just wondered.
(And this isn’t a WUM reply, I’m a big Pep fanboy, who thinks he’s brought football to City the likes of which we’ve never seen).

I'd say he has to take responsibility,to differing extent,for everything I mentioned.His tactics and substitutions of late have left me baffled,is that down to my second point?
 
All of that and not getting in a younger Fernandinho type player.

Rodri is a lovely passer of the ball but without Fern our defence is too easily exposed.

Terrible recruitment and squad management over the last few years. Keeping hold of ageing players too long and then not replacing them with the same quality when they were younger.

That and having players who need 10 chances to score 1.

I do think that’s a valid point mate. And re 3) that was my biggest hope if we’d been able to bring LM in, that the chance conversion rate would get a boost. I love Raz to bits but he misses a lot as well, as does Jesus.

No,I agree we are badly missing a striker but I dont think all our problems will vanish when Aguero or Jesus return.We need a different type,a no nonsense sort who doesn't suffer fools and will let defenders know he's on the pitch
 
1. ‘Some’ poor recruitment
2. Lack of belief
3. Mental fragility
4. Missing key players
5. Wrong personnel (players that don’t fit the team; still good players)
6. Current style of football doesn’t work
7. Ethos of the team seems to have disappeared; only appearing in spurts.

All of that could be wrong

We need another dinho that can read transition and stop them. But a good striker would fix a lot too imo. We have way to many chances to not score. Even Jesus is take a few tries before finally scoring. We will have a hard time filling agueros shoes just like Kompany. But a good offense is always the best defense.

Yes Aguero wouldn’t have cut inside like Sterling for the one on one. He might have hit it straight at the goalie but not stupidly cut inside.
