Man City is in need of streamlining the squad, but they still welcome all the players back to practice when preparing for the new season.
Man City returned to the training ground on July 28, and the team won in the first fighting exercise was really noticeable.
In the 6 -person squad, there was Rayan Cherki, the summer contract from Lyon made the fans extremely excited. Beside him was Vitor Reis, the young center -back was recruited in January and was originally planned to lend, but now it is possible to be able to retain Etihad for the next season.
James McaTee – a player who will almost certainly leave – also appear, but Man City still maintains the demand price higher than the suggestions of about 25 million pounds have been made. After being injured to rob the opportunity to shine last season, Oscar Bobb is now determined to stay, even though the time of competition will be more limited after the presence of Cherki.
In the center of the defense, Manuel Akanji, who was once highly appreciated when signing a contract by 2022 but now loses the credibility in the eyes of a part of the fan, so much so that they want Vitor Reis to be given more opportunities.
Finally, Ilkay Gundogan, the old general who caught criticism of the previous season but still stood firm, and until now he was still determined not to leave, despite a series of rumors and the fact that the club had never confirmed he would keep him back.
Of the 6 people mentioned above, only one name is guaranteed in Pep Guardiola's plan for the next season. However, it is clear that the rest are not trivial. If not, they could not beat the teammates with a stronger future in the training day.
Practicing with Guardiola helps the players feel they are still respected, and for the rest of the squad to see that being listed on the liquidation list does not mean being treated coldly or disrespectful. Business decisions are necessary, but do not forget the players are also human.
The article has no ironic MU and “the edge of the squad” – those who are asked to not practice with the first team, because each club has their own working environment. However, look at what Man City is doing, and it is not difficult to understand why they retain internal satisfaction for a long time.
Erling Haaland once publicly expressed disappointment when Jack Grealish was not allowed to attend the FIFA Club World Cup with him, and Greealish was comfortable sharing the image of the training during the vacation – which is a testament to the mutual respect between the club and the players. If Greealish or anyone else stays in Man City next season, it will be much easier if they are not isolated in the summer.
These may not help players win the main kick in the opening match with Wolves after 3 weeks, but each time they impress the training session, their value is strengthened, both with coach Guardiola and the teams are watching.
