Those players I listed (Otamendi, Stones, Delph, Sterling, Jesus) are all first team starters. None of the players you listed apart from MDS are in our best eleven.

The point I’m making is that City’s first eleven is not better than Juve’s first eleven.

The Max fanboys on here are willing to bash and belittle our own players just to make him look better.
Shut up butthead, for example Jesus has played 1000 minutes less than Mandzukic. You just picked random players and so did I. Your post is just as useless as mine.

Dude, why bother..
Just ignore them

No wonder Zach, Ocelot, Red, etc taking a break from tuz. Too much troll for our own good.

Very odd for Beppe to talk about Sarri at this point in time

Marotta: “When we choose the coaches we make other considerations, but I think Sarri is one of the most beautiful surprises between the Italian & international coaches. I think it's up to him to decide if he wants to stay at Napoli or not.”

I think we'd definitely be considering him if Allegri decides to leave.
The management would be stupid not to at least consider and interview him if he was available and we were looking for a new manager

Because he’s been injured. Whenever Jesus has been fit, he’s been preferred as the main striker. Jesus played in Old Trafford while Aguero got benched.

Since you still can’t seem to understand my post: if you made a combined 11 of City and Juve players, there would be 5 or 6 Juve players in the team. Same with Juve-PSG. Therefore we arguably have the 4th best team in Europe.

You would have more Juve players in a team combined with Barca as well, but Messi makes all the difference.
Last year and in Max’s first year we definetely had a team which was a top 4 team in Europe. This year Barca, Real, Bayern, PSG and City are better than us and teams like Atletico, Tottenham and Chelsea are pretty similar:

Nah, we have a stronger team this year than we had last year.

All this talk about losing Bonucci and Alves, I don’t think we’ve missed either of them that much.

The addition of Matuidi, Bentancur, Bernardeschi and Costa has definitely strengthened midfield and attack.

Costa has been an upgrade and probably also Matuidi. Bentancur and Berna hardly ever plays and is only a depth upgrade.

Bonbon and Alves are hugh looses that has not been replaced properly. Two of the very best players in their respective positions, and whats more the two defenders we had who could actually play the ball from the back. No our first eleven is a lot weaker, and the other teams mentioned improve there starting 11.

How many great games did Alves have last season? This season, he was one of PSG’s worst performers against Bayern (away) and Real (home). Not a big loss IMO.

Again, I don’t see how either PSG or City have a better team than us. We’ll just agree to disagree on that.

Prior to 2017, nobody rated Otamendi, Stones, Fernandinho or Delph highly. Sterling, Sane and Jesus were considered young prospects, nothing more. Pep is the reason why they look so terrifying this season.

Alves was great here. He's a huge loss whether you like it or not. If he played some shitty matches for PSG that doesn't mean he's bad.

Because they have world class players capable of turning the match around. Players like Neymar and Mbappe. Such level of players that we can only dream off.

Only Alex Sandro would get into the City team from our team

Every single other player would not make the starting 11 not even Dybala

Guardiola could probably convert him into a lone striker I imagine so then it is possible he could get in but not sure how well he would adapt to the role

You exaggerate Man City, come when they play against one of the best teams they will flop and I'll remind you.

Tell me who could start for Man City other than Dybala or Sandro?

Your under the assumption we have to choose Man City's formation. But regardless, you should include Cheilini in the list, and make an argument for Higuaín and Costa.

Remember, Serie A is far more defensive than the EPL and more tactical, do not be overwhelmed by these statistics that Rahim Sterling scores. Just look at the example of Salah when he went to the EPL.
