The Inability to Change Things Up in a Midfield That Was Getting Overrun

Manchester City lost 1-0 to Bayern Munich in their Champions League clash. The game revealed one of the few remaining shortcomings with respect to squad depth, says Gautam Batia. I think we probably lacked the ability to bring on another holding midfielder who could have helped screen the defence alongside party. We'd put a bid in for Declan Rice. And hopefully Bayern Munich kicked the fuck out of Manchester City in midweek. That would be... Well, except for the fact that we also want them to stay in the competition and have to play Real Madrid further down the line.
