Even if those guys were not injured and the performance from manchester city was still bad. The absence of those players will make the performance of manchester city become even worst. I have no faith on manchester city this season.
It seems like that the club was not making some improvements. It was only relying upon some players. As you can see that how manchester city was playing so badly. We can imagine that if manchester city will be missing some players like KDB, haaland and alvarez at the same time.
It's going to be a serious problem caused by manchester city has main mission to defend some of its trophies achieved last season. Pep needs to find a solution for this problem.
I can't really sure about what kind of plan will be prepared by pep but it seems like that needs time to go so well. Even missing KDB has been giving huge impact to the city. The worst thing is going to happen if city will be missing a lot of players.
