Sandro, Rooney, and Gylfi all basically play the same position as well
There hasn't been a team spending this since man city first got their oil money
I'm not surprised they can't find a manager, it's not an appealing jobeith that squad, they will obviously have to sell off to buy, and the values will have plummeted
That's a 2 year project to turn them around and get them back tongue top half

You have to stop posting from your phone or after what I presume was heavy drinking.
But otherwise, absolutely, I completely agree.
Its a lot like West Ham, a lot of square pegs being jammed into round holes.
I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that Koeman wanted to play a possession style as opposed to focusing on a single striker.
