Premier League 2020/2021

No Messi-Xavi-Iniesta, no party.

Money are irrelevant past a certain point. You certainly can't buy your way towards the top 3 in the world. You need more.

Come on, you can say Pep have City playing great attacking football for the most part and all that, fair enough, but there really is no defending his defensive signings at City, sooo much money down the drain.

In Klopps defense, at least he didnt spend basically unlimited money on defenders and still have the defense looking painfully average.
Peps defensive signing for City really have been poor.

True. He hasn't been able to make rock solid defense.

His physique reminds me of barca days Bartra. Great on the ball, good decision making but mediocre athletically. Someone like Vardy smokes him with his pace, someone like Dzeko would absolutely bully him. He has to put some mass on, that build is embarassing for a centerback.

That said I would still bring him. He can battle it out with Araujo for the 3rd and 4th CB positions.

His two fuck ups today were more switching off and lack of awareness.

He looked ok for pace prior to that.

I'm willing to give Garcia a chance though.

Partner him up with the likes of Araujo and he'll do good I think.

That's what I've been saying. For all the money they have, the players they bought aren't worth the sums they paid for them. They brought too many promising players for big money, and not too many of them confirmed.

That's the fault of the staff including Guardiola, since it's hard to believe he doesn't have a big word on who comes and goes.

Rodri is a Busquets Copy!

COnstantly getting runned out

 

[jairzinho]

Worse City team in years. They can really use a player like Messi now.

:vdb:

Messi inadvertently made the better decision "staying here".

 

[serghei]

Prime examples are Mendy and Walker. Two of the most braindead defenders in the world.

 

[messi2140]

This is genuinely impressive from Pep. The man has spent almost 1 billion euros in players but his team is quality wise getting worse. Guardiola will actually fit like a glove under the Bartomeu board.

 

[Devils]

Oh my god at this City defending.

 

[FinBarcelonafan]

Mendy... So stupid

 

[serghei]

Those pens they make ...

 

[Devils]

Stunning.

City have literally been torn to shreds.
