Where on Earth does Bernardo fit in their team when they already have Sané, Sterling, David Silva, De Bruyne plus Aguero and Jesus!? What the fuck!?

Sterling, lol. 

Agüero

Sane - KDB - D.Silva - B.Silva

He fits in, unfortunately.

You said "lol" as if he's easily replaceable/not a great player, not sure if that's what you meant

I don't rate him, that's true. Good backup to have a la Willian, not good enough to be an undisputed starter in my opinion. Let's see how he fares against Bernardo.

4-1-4-1 with no Jesus, and with Gundogan as DM?

Now, I have not yet seen enough of Jesus to put aside my doubts about him, but most people, including many who have seen more of him than me and who therefore are in a position to know better than I do, think Jesus is the real deal. If he is, then it still looks like B. Silva can only play if a good player sits on the bench. Net gain for City? My claim is that it's probably marginal.

Great player, crowded team. I don't think we were ever really in for him like others are saying. Sucks seeing a talented player go to a competitor but lets not panic. Conte has given the board his list and it is their job to do their best and deliver. It is a long summer and both Manchesters are going to be spending 250-300+ last year everyone thought City and United were going to run away with it but who are champions? Chelsea. Titles are not won in the summer.

All these expensive signings Pep's making are very young, too. This means that (much like this season) we'll see them look brilliant and unstoppable one week and very naive and inexperienced the next. For instance, Sane and Sterling can either be brilliant or laughably bad. They do however have excellent veteran leaders in Aguero, Kompany, and David Silva.

Must say, if they sign the players they're favored to sign they'll easily have the best squad in the PL on paper. As we saw this season that isn't the end all, be all fortunately. It does mean that we'll need to also spend huge in order to maintain and compete.

-------------Aguero/Jesus-------------

Sane--------KDB/DavidSilva----------Bernardo/Sterling

----------------Fernandiho--------Fabinho---------------

Mendy----------Stones-------Kompany---------Walker

------------------------New keeper-----------------------

That's insane, tbh.

Gündogan is toast, he won't play much anyway. Jesus is young and unproven, easily benched and rotated as a squad player. 4-1-4-1 with a DM, whoever that will be, Pep doesn't do defence anyway. If they can convince some quality players to embrace the bench, then good for them, otherwise they will need to sell. They still have Nolito for example, he will probably be gone.

Great talent. Potential superstar. One of the possible attacking options to strengthen Chels for me so slightly annoyed he's not joining but that's football.

I'm surprised they're making these kinds of signings under Pep though. He doesn't stick around for long and I highly doubt he'll be in charge when their young guns reach their prime.

And that's the thing. These players aren't in their prime. Signings like this doesn't make them a super team or a team to be prematurely feared. That would take years to build. And even then, there are no guarantees.

Tbh the ONLY way Pep will be winning trophies is if 1:) oppisition is below expectations or 2.) If he creates absolutely perfect team like his prime barca.

His tactics have flaws and as long he doesnt have top top team or opponent isnt good, he wont win it. He had brilliant Bayern team and didnt do anything spectacular. 

Nevermind it will take a while for his team to gel together and all the talents actualy develop fully. By then he might not be at club anymore.

I do fear City abit in 5 years or so, and United too. They will spend like mad to get back.

What we need is improve our team and keep key players. Prime, Tibo, Azpi, Kante, Eden, and improvements should keep us a top for a while.
