No wonder for anything that happened to us in last 6 years. Its undeniable that they are talented bunch, perhaps very top tier, but the lack of work ethics is what brought us misery.
Well tbh we didn't really "miss out" on Gomez. He was an AMC here that didn't make it at Dortmund either and only converted to LB last year. Paying 30m for him after having one good season in Belgian league is also quite risky. Not so much for City but for us clearly.
With Alonso about to sign for us I hope our plan is to bin this guy next summer and have Alonso + a new starting LB in 2023. Alternatively Alonso + Balde depending on how well he does out on loan.
