Gabriel, Saliba, Kiwior, Zinchenko, Timber, Tomiyasu and Benny Blanco all 26 and younger. Shoot that shit into my veins let’s fucking go.
if you exclude zinchenko (which i do, because he plays a completely different role and isn't interchangeable with these players), we have a group of center backs and combo defenders on par with any club in the world. city are able to rotate their defenders and endure injury issues better than anyone because of the versatility and depth they have, and this group is starting to look an awful lot like theirs. plus: the oldest one is only 25. their ceiling as a group is probably still 2-3 years away.
if we can wrap up tomiyasu, we will have an incredible platform back there and i think we can really focus our attention on bringing in an A+ attacking player and a younger midfielder to replace one of jorginho or partey in the summer. the osimhen links make sense when you look at how well manned we are in other parts of the pitch. next summer will be about quality and not quantity.
