only players remotely available who make me truly excited and who we need (IMHO) either thus year of next
Mbappe (not going to happen)
Barella my number one want next summer, unless we are (again, so unlikely for many reason) in the Mbappe mix
Chiesa (the only winger, other than Mbappe, who remotely interests me)
Bastoni (but if we get Kounde, then he is likely not coming anytime soon)
Tchouaméni
Theo Hernandez (the only remotely available LB who interests me)
Jude Bellingham (IF he stays at Dortmund, then maybe summer 2023) Saul would have been nice.
Camavinga (if no Bellingham, but Camavinga is likely off to RM or PSG)
and then one who we technically do not need (Oblak)
Håland is off the list due to Lukaku,
and we lost out on the last one, Hakimi (he was only RB/RWB for me, the rest are not good enough, unless we had (and we WERE going to until his horrific Achilles rupture) purchased the right-footed Leonardo Spinazzola and used him at RWB instead of his normal (and strange for me) LWB
Rice is simply not worth £100m, only Mbappe, Håland, and maybe Barella and Chiesa are (and NOT over £100m for the last two)
Pedri is NOT available, so, so not available. Same for Frenkie de Jong, Marquinhos, de Bruyne (and he turns 31yo right after the end of this season), Bruno (and he is a cunt, lol), Joshua Kimmich, de Ligt, Donnarumma, Marcos Llorente, Rúben Dias, Jadon Sancho, Alphonso Davies, and Phil Foden
