Manchester City midfielder Stephen Ireland is confident the new additions at the club will strengthen the squad.

City have secured the signatures of Gareth Barry and Roque Santa Cruz and with more in the pipelines, Ireland can see a new and improved playing list taking shape.

"What has happened this summer is really exciting and the squad is going to be a lot stronger, that is for sure,” he said on the club’s official website.

"Players are going to have to be flexible and that is great.

"Gareth Barry is a very shrewd and clever signing by the manager. He is a top-class all-round midfielder who will give us more balance.

"The great thing about Gareth and Roque, who is another crucial addition, is that they are players who are in their prime.”
