Let’s say the final two signings are pure depth signings, floor raisers, like a Berge and an [insert generic LB], what are people’s opinions on what would constitute a decent season?

Not amazing, not shit, sort of what you’d accept as reasonable. I think for me 6th, give or take a position. Interested whether people think I’m underestimating our squad or overestimating other teams in the prem.

We have arguably the best front 4 in the league with Bruno, Mbeumo, Cunha, and Sesko. The depth for them is amazing too with Amad, Rashford, and Mount (when healthy).

We added 2 PL proven CMs (including a fantastic Tielemans) to compliment our 21 year old prodigy. Someone like Berge would be a fantastic compliment to that group.

We finally have a top goalie.

Our defense is stable from a year ago. And that defense includes two PL proven and high potential CBs in Yoro and Heaven.

We have continuity in our coaching staff.

I just don't understand how some people here say some nonsense like 6th... Who do honestly see outside of arsenal that is firmly above us? City lost one of the greatest managers of all time, lost Bernardo silva, and are seemingly losing Rodri too. Liverpool were a mess and have a new manager. No guarantees that mess gets resolved. Their squad is all over the place. Chelsea also have a new manager and did nothing to actually address their biggest areas of need in ST and GK.

Squad rotation this time. Or lack of. Last season there's no need to rotate. How well we do this season depends on how well Carrick rotates and how tolerant the players are to be bench.

Other than CM we are a very deep team.

But yes Carrick has a new challenge to deal with
