If it was long term it's an issue and I think the window should close before the season starts anyway, but it's not an issue until September
Also disagree on the depth, it's not great but it's no different than anyone else outside city
At CB they have Toby, Vertonghen, Dier as the core 3, Wimmer behind them, and in a back 3 Davies plays there for Wales already.
At striker, they missed Kane for 9 weeks already last year., That's a key injury and it didn't lead to disaster. Son scored a bunch when they played as a hybrid false 9 rotating the front 4 with alli and eriksen
It goes against what poch is saying if they don't sign a RB and an attacker before the end of the month, if they don't depth becomes an issue

You're making my point for me.
You don't have a RB for this weekend and you yourself are basically saying that Poch may have to adapt a different formation to deal with it.
And as you said, any sort of long term injury to Trippier (who btw is still very much an unproven commodity) and it's an issue. You don't have a long term solution.
