Team is fine considering you can't compete with the Prem spending 200 in one window every year.
Missing particular types of player i.e. proper version of Hazard, Odegaard opening spaces and a mobile striker to increase the margin of error. Defense is quality albeit dependent on Ramos and will take some time, maybe few months, maybe a year, to get over departure of Ramos once it does happen.

We've balanced out lack of threat in attack by putting in best defensive season in 40 years. Now it's time to take the next step and improve upfront. But Zidane doesn't like 2 strikers and has too many wingers. So we'll either improve or pay for it.

That Real team is not fine and a bit much to complain about spending when spent over 250m last summer on players that barely play and the one that does in Mendy have argued about before but I think he is poor going forward.

They barely have a world class player. That is not fine for Real.

It is not fine if have another early CL exit.

When is the last time City has had a top team in their group? Feel like they are always playing scrubs in the champions league. Anytime they play a top team they lose (outside of Real Madrid)

This is all building up for Inter to bottle it as usual and give Real Madrid a lifeline to escape the group.

And they barely play partly because of the manager's poor choices and because of injuries. Looked at the very least decent with a very off beat Jović upfront next to Benz.

Define 'fine'. Because you have a very different perception of what it is considering you keep ignoring context.

It's not surprising. But yes, somebody will pay if it happens. Zidane might leave.
