English Premier League

Manchester City have lost or are potentially going to lose:

Bernardo Silva (elite winger)

Gundogan (Captain and unbelievably clutch in big moments) (lost on a free as well)

Kyle Walker (Extremely pacey and elite 1 v 1 defender, could be leaving for Bayern Munich)

Aymeric Laporte (Defender with elite ball skills)

Riyad Mahrez (world class/all time great first touch and technique)

Cancelo (Defender with elite ball skills, maybe a dressing room problem)

You could build a top four contender with their departures this year.

Would anyone be that surprised if this team doesn't dominate?

They so far have only brought in kovacic, who i dont think is as good as Gundogan. and Gvardiol will probably be brought in, but is he really an upgrade over the defenders they are losing?
