'Looking forward to it' or 'not really bothered'? Fans on Club World Cup

We asked for your thoughts on Manchester City's upcoming Club World Cup campaign and what you make of the squad after the mini-transfer window.

Here are some of your comments:

Adam: It would take a calamity to prevent City getting to the knockout stage but it's difficult to feel invested in the competition. Based on the latter stages of this season's Champions League, City are nowhere near that level right now and the new signings likely won't have had enough time to settle in.

Charlie: City will do OK in the competition. It's a chance for all our new signings to try out and also to welcome the injured heroes back to the team. Good luck to everyone concerned.

Sunny: Looking forward to the Club World Cup, especially with all of the new signings and how they perform. Great to see all purchases made prior and now to get them to gel together prior to the new season.

Kevin: To be honest, I'm not really bothered about this competition at all. The players are already asked to play too many games so I don't think it's helpful to introduce more games for players who are already tired after a long hard season.

Gary: Disappointed he has not taken Divine Mukasa or any of the victorious U21 squad to America. Surely Pep and his staff can see Mukasa is destined for greatness.

John: Money rules the world of football and the welfare of the players, and the quality of the football comes last. I'm sure it will have its moments; Messi playing, the odd upset, but at what cost? Fatigued players going straight back to the Premier League and the injuries that will be experienced.

Andrew: Great squad but would have liked more academy players for development and experience. Classic Pep - half the squad are 'midfielders'.
