Hey Blues, let me set the scene, Pellers leaves, City contact YOU to replace him and offer you a 5 year contract. Obviously you take the job.

The question is, what would you change? Formation, signings, youth, first 11? Or would you keep things as they are now? Would you go all out attack? Park the bus? Go for all trophies?

Thought this could be interesting, so Blues, let us know. You're the boss.
 
Same formation, would demand 4 new fullbacks, a new CM and a new winger.

Change our off the ball tactics, collectively pressing the opposition, wouldn't go all out attack, there has to be a balance, but if the fullbacks are overlapping then a CM has to sit between the two CBS like Busquets does.
 
I'd change everything and destroy the club on purpose - only so I could hear the chants "Willy, Willy, Willy, Out out out!"
 
Do a shite job, get a big pay off and fuck off somewhere hot to live the rest of my life near a beach.

echoed. im afraid i wouldnt jump up from the bench in the correct way if we lost possession.

i couldnt hack the witty put downs on BM :(
 
I’d make the big call and sack of Yaya at the end of this season. I’d also lose; MDM, Nasri and Willy.

With the 4 places freed up I’d bring in a LB and a right winger and Nacho for CL (I’d keep 1 space free (the Messi space). I’d bring in Denayer and look to use him ahead of Sagna as RB or CB cover, use one of the EDS keepers for back up. I’d get Sterling training as a striker as well as a Winger.

Losing Yaya would mean F’dinho and Delph would be regular starters and I’d want more movement / energy. I’d work a lot more on off the ball formation and pressing. I’d have two youth players on the bench every game and use them at every opportunity.
 
First job would be to answer that aged old question " its a barm " then take a shower with the ladies team get sacked, get a box at the stadium with my pay out, happy days.
 
I'd change the formation to 5212

Sagna/Zaba Kompany Otamendi Mangala Kolarov/Clichy
Dinho Yaya/Delph
Silva
KDB/Sterling Aguero

When were on the ball the wing backs move into midfield similar to how they do now, the middle centre back moves up and plays as an extra midfielder so any of the 3 with the best passing ability. So could basically go.

Kompany Mangala
Ota
Zaba Dinho Yaya Kolarov
Silva.
KDB Aguero

Formation 2-1-4-1-2
Silva plays free role

Ideally you'd replace the 2 full backs for quicker and younger players so they could press and could recover to get back in position.
