. The idea is that those players give the team time to get into the right positions so there are no large spaces between them, meaning City can counter-press efficiently as soon as they lose the ball.
Interestingly, this summer, City could lose Bernardo and Gundogan and sign Bellingham , meaning suddenly the midfield balance is way off.City will be looking for a Gundogan alternative if he does leave rather than replacing him with a different type of player.
Barca seem to grasp their limitations this summer and believe they could sign Gundogan but could not buy Bernardo, their target of the past transfer windows. That closes one route for Bernardo, who is open to an exit, but the potential of bids from other top continental clubs still exists.
