The Skipper

Can see Bamford going there on loan tbh.

James won't be benched, he was one of Real's best players last season.

Nowhere near as drastic as Oscar did though.

Mourinho does have free roaming players in the team in Hazard and Fabregas who are both a lot more naturally talented than Salah. He won't give Salah who stil has a lot more growing to do a free role when there are more talented & effective players in the team ahead of him...

People seem to always forget that this guy is only 20 and is already one of the best players in the PL.

Salah is more of a goalscorer than Shaqiri tbh, so I think he would do well under him, especially in Italy, yes.

Let's be honest, he's already proven that he can play well at OM and Lyon's level during his Fiorentina spell tbh (and during his time at Basel IMO). The best thing for him to do would be to join an interesting project at somewhere like Inter.

Why would he go on loan to France when the likes of Inter, Atletico, Roma, Juve etc. have been linked with permanent moves for him?

It would be: Aguero Silva - De Bruyne - Sterling.

As a number 10 Willian is superior/at least on par with Oscar on everything bar finishing/killer instinct in the final third IMO. That simple.

Time to cash in on that Falcao favour I suppose...

Option 1 by far mate.

Varane plays with maturity beyond his years. If Varane was as experienced as Zouma then I'd agree with this but that's not the case at all. Depending on Zouma's growth, Varane-Zouma would be fully ready in a season or two. It really depends on how well Kurt develops.

Well, Inter are a much bigger team than Fiorentina and have made some excellent signings recently. The Inter project is definitely far more interesting than Fiorentina's over the long term. Stop thinking so short term!

Co ownership isn't allowed in the PL & La Liga.

Something like this would be amazing, almost too amazing. I would advocate for Sterling on the right wing, so the XI would be:Courtois Azpilicueta - Zouma - Varane - Luis Matic Fabregas - Pogba Sterling - Costa - Hazard Amazing XI tbh. Won't ever happen though.

Yes please. Home grown as well. Would be a fantastic signing.

Mitrovic is technically better than Lukaku and also has better aerial presence and hold up play. Wouldn't mind him here as a 3rd choice tbh. Good striker who has a pretty high ceiling.

Pogba is the ideal long term Iniesta replacement for Barcelona IMO.

Lol! I meant RB. Blame auto correct.

He didn't play extensively at LB though, he was more impressive in midfield in the Championship. And again, can't blame the board. We've already got a back up Arab (essentially Azpi) but Jose chose not to play him there.

If you're gonna slate a player at least pretend you know about him...

Is Ake good enough to be our back up left back though? I don't know. Can't really blame the club when he was injured quite a bit this season and Jose never gave him much opportunity. You can't put that on the club tbh.

Latest rumours saying that United are offering 40m euros and DDG for Ramos... Incredible. Real must be laughing.
