Hmmm thats kind of expected to be honest, they cant sell ALL their players. Bernardo is leaving for sure ( HAS to be for us), IMO the interest in Mendy will be greater than the interest in Sidibe, so i think Mendy might leave before him. As for Midfield, looks like we are acting fast for him, so hopefully we get him and block United and City from getting Fabinho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If psg come in for Bakayoko we will miss out on him as well cause he was quoted saying he will find it hard to reject psg with Matuidi rumoured to be leaving psg in the summer i can see psg going in for Bakayoko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AOIRO 64 Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Bernard Silva << 3 years before David Silva and Mata. Right wing need to defending ability , because Hazard isnt contribution defending . Bernard Silva < Willian Pedro < Sanchez , I think Sanchez is perfect to complete Trident ! Bakayoko is defensive player , not good at passing . Matic is poor passing , it cause reducing attacking times . Faninho is better passing and atacking . We have to get Fabinho now !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcos is pretty competent in almost every area of the game, proper all rounder, maybe quite weak defensively but he's improved as the season has progressed. He's better in almost every area of the game than him though. I think the only real thing Marcos has over him is his height. Emerson is having a breakout season at Roma, proper complete full back. Doesn't have a real weakness. A lot of Roma's attacks go through him on the left, but he's also quite strong defensively. If we compare him and Alonso statistically he blows him out of the water: Some maps comparing him to some PL LBs/LWB. He'd be a very smart, Azpilicueta-like signing I think. Still hasn't his prime yet either so is also going to get better. Edit: @manpe I forgot to actually add the images. Also added images of left backs with similar profiles to him.

Unionjack 7,532 Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 I know we need 4 or 5 upgrades with a bit of luck to run riot in Europe but another problem we have is our severe lack of Homegrown players! And with JT and maybe others leaving or going out on loan it will be even worse. What we have been doing is putting in under 21s to help that out but they dont help the team any as they dont get used. I know theres a lack of top HG players but its something that we have to look at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Chalobah and RLC stay we will have: Christensen, Baker, Cahill, Chalobah, Musonda (???), Loftus-Cheek, Aké, Moses and Fabregas. Not forgetting Aina. I just feel he is going on loan.

Thats what I mean. We are filling up with players that we shouldn't be considering if we are serious about Europe. I'd keep Chalobah (even tho we will be bringing another in and probably still be keeping Matic,Cescy,N'Golo too. Id keep Christensen if he had a good pre season and looked like a good enough backup but I'd still buy a Cahill upgrade. This of course depends if Christensen would take a benching - I doubt it.. Not sure about Charly. If he cant make a go of it at a place like Real Betis how will he manage here?? And I'd send RLC out on loan where he shoulda been this season. Ake will be either sold or back on loan to Bournemouth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently we have 13 nonHG players. If Begovic leaves and we will not replace him with HG GK we will have 14 nonHG players - that will leave only 3 spots open Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must admit, I didnt realy know him except for a fact he was some guy that replaced Digne in Roma, until a week ago when we were linked. But he is getting lot of positive talk from everywhere now that I checked a bit more. Might aswell as you say be a hidden gem. Since he is already playing as wingback in serie a, Conte interest is probably true. From what I heard he is quite attacking dribbling type of FB and with Semedo on other side, we would be more than creative enough in attack even if we have Kante Bakayoko midfield. Add a good scoring RW and this team gets serious boost. Our first 11 would be good for years. Tibo, Azpi, Kante, Bakayoko, Semedo, Emerson/Marcos, Eden. Only Costa and possibly RW would be older, while Luiz and Cahill have perfect replacements in Christensen and Zouma already in the club. Probably the only black spot of such team would be no english players, but I have accepted the situation. As much I would kill to have more english players, better to have good foreigners than average englishmen. English players werent so poor in ages. Barkley, Ox, Ward Prowse, Bertrand, Keane, Gibson and thats about it who we can buy. They are absolutely nothing special (maybe Ox could do well) and I realy would prefer us giving chance to at least Baker, Aina, Tammy. I hope the club wont fuck up and pay ridiculous amount of cash for Barkley, when we have Baker. The Skipper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we need to promote one or two youngsters, possibly more if Aina, Nate and Ruben all leave on loan. I would keep Cesc as backup for another year. Tbh as shit english players are atm, we should take this on positive note and promote OUR own youth more. The only english player I would consider atm is Oxclade Chamberlain and use him as some kind of utility player, since he is decent on wings and good in middle. We need depth anyway. If we get top RW I can see one of Pedro/Willy leave and that will leave us short. Ox would be nearly perfect for such role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they have to be high quality signings. Christensen is coming back definitely, and he is a very good player with plenty of room for improvement, so ideally he would be our CB signing. Bernardo silva is the obvious candidate for the RW, and the one i want the most. We need an upgrade on both fullback positions, Nelson semedo and Benjamin Mendy fit the profile of players i want. Midfield is a bit trickier, because im certain that PSG wont sell Verratti and im not that big on Bakayoko, but he looks like the one we are gonna get, so he will have to do. But ideally, i would want Naby Keita. so thats 4 signings and a returning loanee, quite doable i would say The Skipper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
