Im not hating. Im just saying with a midfield like ours a CHL spot should be guaranteed. Just like mancini won premier league with City. It wasnt his football knowledge for most of the time, but rather individual quality of the players.
So thats what im saying. Not hating or being smart ass. Just saying that with the players we have top 3 is a must. No matter the coach.
I dont see our squad is a guaranteed CHL in the league.
Despite Jube, there are napoli and roma who has much more balanced squad than us.
Maybe our forward line is top 3, but our defensive line is disaster level compare with both teams. We have bunch of medicore RB/LBs plus dont even have a decent 3rd CB.
I dont see our midfield a guaranteed top 3 either.
On paper as Ed suggested, we currently have:
banega, kdog, brozovic, medel, melo
Banega/Kdog/Brozovic is our best combination on paper, but we all know it is not solid enough defensively.
as for Napoli they have Hamsik/Jorginho/Allan/Giaccherini/Zieliński/El Kaddouri,
Roma: Naingglan/De rossi/Strootman/Vainquer/Florenzi/gerson etc, just saying Naingglan/De Rossi are probably better than any of kdog, brozovic, medel, melo.
Our team is simply lack of balance, dont see we can "easily" walk into top 3 with any coach.
