From the sources I know, it looks like Man City managed to recruit 4 new players for now and this is really done wisely. I think regenerating is one way to improve squad performance because last season I saw a lot of weaknesses in defense. So Pep Guardiola tried to bring in defenders and central midfielders. But one player I know like Rayan Cherki who has good skills and is still young. I hope Haaland can work well with the new players.

Don't forget that City spent over 200 million in the winter. In general, Pep does what he can - flood problems with money. This is his favorite style - if one of the newcomers does not suit, he will be sold and a new player will be bought, etc. Some call this genius Grin

But still, I have a feeling that the happy days for Pep are over, the core of the team is changing and I am not sure that Pep will be able to build a new one that will dominate as before.

I strongly share in your sentiments. I think the glory days of Pep is gone. These names I am seeing in his transfer lists are not dreadful or scary. They will be watered down to ordinary players, just like what happened to Marmoush and even Haaland. Gone are the days presences were given to Haaland in any match.

EPL will be very tough next season and I am very sure that Manchester City is definitely going to struggle like the other teams. Liverpool still appears stronger than them and even Arsenal. If Arteta can go for a world class striker, this might be his year.
