Manchester City made history by winning their fourth consecutive Premier League title last season, accumulating 91 points. The club has been active in the summer transfer window, bringing in Savinho from Troyes and selling Julian Alvarez and Sergio Gomez. Pundits, such as Danny Murphy, have identified the midfield as an area of concern for City, particularly highlighting the impact of Rodri’s absence on the team’s performance. With Rodri being a key defensive presence in City’s lineup, Murphy suggests that the club should target a midfielder who can provide cover and bolster their defensive capabilities.

City’s vulnerability without Rodri was evident in the three Premier League games they lost last season when the Spaniard was suspended. With Rodri leading the team in combined tackles and interceptions, his defensive contributions are seen as crucial to City’s success. Bringing in a midfielder who can replicate or complement Rodri’s defensive abilities is seen as a priority for the club as they aim to maintain their winning streak in the upcoming season. Murphy’s analysis underscores the importance of strengthening the squad in key areas to sustain their dominance in the Premier League.
