One of the more odd decisions this past summer was Manchester City not replacing Vincent Kompany . "Replace" is perhaps too strong a word. You can't "replace" him but you can bring in another live body to give you an alternative at centre-back and provide some competition for John Stones and Nicolas Otamendi . Many of us pointed this out but hey, it's Pep Guardiola, so you naturally offer the benefit of the doubt. He must know something we don't. Maybe Fernandinho (at 34) can fill in too. Maybe Eric Garcia is ready. Maybe Kyle Walker can slide across. Maybe Aymeric Laporte is Iron Man and will never get injured. (Oops: we already know that's not the case.) https://africa.espn.com/football/blog-marcottis-musings/story/3944165/man-city-arent-in-crisis-despite-norwich-shock-plus-bayerns-bundesliga-dominance-is-under-threat
