We also need to have at least one DM fit and available (hopefully soon), plus a number 10 that can play behind Jackson (doubtful with Nkunku out and Chukwuemeka also injured). That would help us get the rest of the players in the right places, rather than the Potter-esque tinkering we've seen for the first two matches. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be frank and fair, West Ham is possibly an even more shite team. We lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other news I see CHO is being chased by Fulham, Everton and Forest. Do you think we could get the bidding up to £100m? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thevelourfog Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 City are about to spend £50m on a young attacker who has missed 50 games through injury in the last two years. I hope someone is babysitting Todd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Balogun is behind Nketiah, Trossard and Gabriel Jesus at Arsenal and is refusing to sign a new contract. He wants game time basically.

boratsbrother Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 So after spending nearly a billion, we could soon be lining up with Brighton's number 3 keeper and Arsenal's 5th choice striker. 😭 City must be pooing themselves at the thought of meeting us.

Rob B Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 I’m caught between not wanting any more signings and trying to settle / coach the group, but also knowing that we don’t have anywhere near enough goal scorers in the squad. I think Jackson and Sterling are both good for 10-12 goals this season, but outside of that, and with Nkunku injured I think we’re going to struggle. Take Arsenal, they have Martinelli, Odegaard, Saka, Havertz and Nketiah on the pitch with Trossard on the bench, and Jesus injured. Man City played Haaland, Alvarez, Grealish and Foden on the weekend, with Cole Palmer on the bench, and Silva / KDB to come back in. We have Mudryk and Madueke who have 1 goal between them, and possibly Gallagher to play as a 10 if he doesn’t get sold. Our first choice striker has two PL games to his name, and our second choice has like 1 season at this level, and 7 goals. I don’t want to come across as reactionary because I’m actually really excited by the squad generally - a huge amount of talent and the right manager to harness and develop that talent…. And we look fitter and generally “more up for it” but I called it in pre-season that if we go into the season with Jackson and Broja as our strikers, particularly without bringing in another scoring attacker (Olise etc) it is beyond negligent. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
