It can be partially sorted without adding extra personnel this season. Haaland took his chance in the first half vs Leicester then things would have been a little more comfortable. Pep could tweak his approach to stop us being vulnerable to counter attacks. He has recentely started to add a little more variety in our attacking play too to help us get out of the rut.

Who joins us in January?

- Start date
No DM? Seriously after the last few months?Probably squad fillers than players who can really help us. Those type of players won't move mid season or if they did they would cost us more than we are willing to pay for them. Defender is the only position I would move for in January, especially with Nathan Ake's injury concerns.
Pointless wasting money in getting the wrong player this month. All the better players tend to be involved in their own battles for winning trophies, Champions League places and there are not many top quality out of favour players at those clubs either. Could easily end up with another Kalvin Phillips or even to some extent Matheus Nunes.No DM? Seriously after the last few months?

Pointless would be doing nothing after watching whats unfurled infront of us since the start of NOV. We simply cannot carry on with no DM, it would be certified lunacy!!Pointless wasting money in getting the wrong player this month.
If the quality isn't available? The new players still have to fully adapt as well so there it won't be a smooth transition into life in the Premier League.Pointless would be doing nothing after watching whats unfurled infront of us since the start of NOV.

If we don't get at least one prime central mid this window we are cooked. This run of injuries is going to continue all season long. A defender is also an absolute necessity. I'm also worried that without some cover, Haaland will break down. I'm not particularly a fan of either player, but why isn't Pep giving minutes to McAtee and O'Reilly?
Finding one in this window is near enough impossible. Face it we are cooked in winning the league and despite squad depth and our recent form we still in a decent position for the Champions League place.If we don't get at least one prime central mid this window we are cooked.

You talk like you've spoken personally to all these players, you don't know at all what their thinking is or what their ambitions are. Or what kind of money would be on the table for them and their agents.The Release Clause.
Both and the player would not want to move just yet either. Similar with Zubimendi (although he is carrying a back injury). Porto are in a middle of the title race and are on course for the latter stages of the Champions League. They aren't going to further weaken themselves at this stage and they aren't going to do us any favours either seeing we have poached their DoF.
If City are intent on doing something they have the means and capability to do so. For the first time in a long time Pep has spoken publicly about making January signings which I think could be an indicator that the club are working on deals already.
