Poor Pre-season

[bluepill]

Gave up after the first half abomination.

You could drive a bus through our midfield.

missing Yaya, Fernando, Fernandinho & Delph.

Garcia should have started given how he's played

[Rowley Birkin QC]

In 'Typical City' days I rarely took much notice of pre-season form, as (inevitably) after a good pre-season when we won everything, we invariably collapsed and found ourselves in a relegation scrap by the end - and when we had a poor pre-season it often signalled we were going to be OK!

Not so much these days, but I too am a little concerned about our preparation here. Aside from Sterling and maybe Delph, no significant strengthening of the squad and important deals (we hope) still yet to be done - but very late and the season already about to get under way. Copa America hasn't helped things either.

Must admit I'm a bit gloomy about City as everything currently stands (although that might have something to do with my general demeanour at the moment)

I have to say that I'm a bit concerned by our pre-season. It wouldn't surprise me at all if we got off to a poor start in the league.

wouldnt mind him sorting out the defence before the season starts

or it'll be chavski again

[Stephen Paul]

It's all a plan 

[Swiss]

Maybe Pellers is sending a message to the board... Get me some players!

Still need to sack off Sagna and Clichy

Mangala should be sent out on loan and we get in a 25-30 year old defender.

+ 1 midfield general & De Bruyne and then Bobs your uncle, we're sorted.
