    I remembered after KDB led CITY to 100 points and PL. He got injured in the next season and Bernado Silva was born. Silva had an extraordinary year and City got 98 point.
    It's not the players. It's the manager.

    Pep Guardiola is one of the greatest managers in football’s history, he knows well there’s no player that can replace Rodri, but a different type of system, formation and tactic can replace him. Even without Rodri, City is still the strongest team in the league and are still favourites to win.

    At first I wondered why he went down so easily with the 10 second Havertz challenge because he held his leg. He probably felt it before the game.

      Not his strength . And with Ake out , Gvardiol is the only option on the left . Gvardiol has improved a lot and city’s vulnerability is on the right hand side , not the left . Kovacic has been better and better in replacing Rodri . So it’s going to be Kovacic or Gündogan .
