  1. Werner and ziyech signing are almost must have. We need one more winger with Willian and pedro gone. ST position, Giroud is 60+,michy is useless, we need one more. Kai signing is the only one that is a bit questionable. Based on the rumor, he will cost 100 m and not sure it is a positional need or upgrade need so like I said it before he better be really2 good.
  2. So that aerial stat % does not mean much. Azpi for a fb is fine aerially but against set pieces, your position mean nothing, and is he good enough to defend against tall striker, clearly lamp say nope and clearly he said yes about alonso. I think there is this view that our set pieces defense problem is only because of lamp, that he is just so bad at organizing set pieces and that the fact that we have many small player and very few aerially good player isn't the reason. So it is ok to have small team and just by being organized, we will be very2 good. I clearly remember everyone said the same thing about klopp. He can't coach set pieces. VVD, matip n Fabinho later no one talked about it anymore. Now, our team instead of getting aerially better player, we replace our tall player with smaller player, and we think it will get better next season.
  3. I don't think we will sign a dm this season so nothing really change. I have tons of question about this signing because of his age but it is free and his contract is 1+1. He can probably offer some "mentoring" for our defender which is a big plus. So all in all, low risk but I dont expect him to transform our defense. .
  4. Psg played marquinhos, paredes and Herrera in front of him. If we are known to protect our d line, sure no problem. But we ask our defender to defend large space, sometimes both of our fb push up high and we have jorgi and kova as dm.
  5. Maybe he is that good in the air but then I checked azpi just for confirmation he is also 59%, n we all know aerial battle is not his game.
  6. Nah, silva is 36,we have to see how he can cope with epl especially if we defend the same way as last season.
  7. Let's start one by one. When we play Rudiger, alonso, Giroud and Zouma together , I don't think we concede many set pieces goal. I can't remember many. Height isn't everything you are right. But let's be honest, Thiago Silva is not your dominant physical center back, not his game. Werner isn't a physical player weak challenge cb. I'll be surprised if Chilwell is better in the air than alonso. So essentially you weaken your already weak set pieces defense. If you combined that with playing Christensen our weakest cb. Good luck
  8. Our team get smaller with thiago n chillwell n if we play werner as cf, and now you want to pair ac with silva. How do you defend set pieces next season is beyond me
  9. Messi joining city will be so boring. If he decide to join us, or United or spurs will be far more interesting.
  10. But if they can't find how to invest Zaha money, they can be relegated and that is worse than getting less money.
  11. New batch of chelsea loan army Welcome
  12. Good signing, alonso is 30 and Emerson is awful. Everyone mentioned that he is good defensively but I watched him closely against Watford, Sarr get passed him with ease. He is quick though so he can go up and down better than alonso.
  13. The big money is Morata and we recoup most of his fee and Giroud for 15 m, key rotation for 3 years, worth every penny.
  14. If messi can leave for free and his salary demand is reasonable, it will be a fun transfer window
  15. Ahh 63, that is a lot but city scored 100+ goals last season. If you watch them play, it is easy to tell why. Like @Jason said 3 new player, it will take time for them to gel and to find a role that suit everyone. Werner Pulisic - Havertz - Ziyech Every single one of them have to adapt their role. Werner is used to play with a striker partner so he can just focus on making run behind. Ziyech was the star at ajax, what happen when he is not the star. Havertz, I don't know, never watched him.
  16. I don't think even city top 4 scorer scored 65 goals in pl
  17. No 8, no 10 doesn't really matter. It depend on what you are asking of him defensively.
  18. Never watched him and he better be absolutely world beater.
  19. Yes. Mount ia fantastic. Low usage, pressed hard, excellent off the ball. If Werner cost 100 m then nope.
  20. He better be damn good, huge transfer fee for player that we don't really need.
  21. There are many thing that I disagree with you there. With any player my question what is your weaknesses and strength. If you have a glaring weakness, you better have strong skill set at other area. Take one Chelsea most hated player Alonso. He is freaking slow for a fb but his passing is very good, his finishing is fantastic and aerially he is very2 good. With Kepa, his shot stopping skill has been awful. That is clear to see. He also can't catch crosses. His distribution is ok. So what is he good at. So GK is a big problem. The bigger problem is that it is very2 difficult to move him. So I hope he can get better, this is a question that I can't answer.
