not worried. Fred is a poor man's Kante with a bit more goals to him but thats it.

United and Mourinho busy early indeed. Fred looks done and they've apparently inquired about some other super expensive players.

They will be the biggest spenders in summer that's for sure. But as long as they got Mou at the helm I doubt they will surpass City. Mou will never change and everyone knows that. Even if they would sign Neymar, Bale and Mbappe, he would still be pumping crosses to Fellaini in attack when he needs a goal and he would still surrender posession in every game against a side who can play football. Utd have invested hugely for years now and assembled a big big squad with at least 2 very good players for every position all of them in or approaching their best years yet they keep buying and buying instead of letting that squad settle. Mourinho needs this constant influx to keep the players on their toes and so he does not need to build tactics and formation around a team or actually develop some attacking tactics. All his magic is loading his box with players to keep it tight at the back and hope for the individual class of his star players to score a few goals up front. This time around because of his fetish for big strong players he failed to buy genuine class though. The 200m they spunked on Lukaku and Pogba could have been spent on real world class players in their positions. Fred might seem an anomaly here but he is likely not to be a game changer.

Out  140m

Morata(50m)  Batshuayi(50m)  Drinkwater(25m)  Zappacosta(15m)  Cahill

 

IN 190m

Lewandowski(70m)  LeonBaily(70m)  Jorginho(50m) 

Where you get this prices from?  I doubt that Bayern let go Lewa for 70m, think that they prefer to stick with him more than sell for less than 100m, Rummenigge implied that multiple times. Also I'm very skeptical about Moses as fullback.

You have Sané, Sterling, Bernardo Silva, David Silva, and Kevin De Bruyne. You've just walked the league with and unstoppable attack, had a crazy goal difference, and finished on a record 100 points.

So what do they do now? Oh, just target Mahrez and Isco for a combined ~€180m. How is anyone meant to compete when City literally have unlimited money and are not bothered or restrained by FFP at all?

It's actually taking the piss now. Surely they are breaking FFP rules.

Really wish we can go after Hakim Ziyech, he would flourish under Sarri. One of the most creative players in Europe. Ideally i want us to add Jorginho and Ziyech to our midfield. 

[Trueblue9877 6]

Players that I think should be sold, Pedro, Willian, Bakayoko if a good offer comes in ideally at least £20 million and Gary Cahill, maybe Fabregas too to get him off the wage bill, he's struggled a lot more this season and he has made some disastrous mistakes this season but I really wouldn't mind if Fabregas was moved on next summer instead.

I think the jump would be too big for Ziyech right now

Lot of big time moves happening amongst our rivals already. 

-Liverpool have Naby Keita incoming already and are going hard after Fekir who seems very likely to be their #1 target.

-City are after Jorginho and Mahrez

-United look dead certain to sign Fred and Alderweireld and now Alex Sandro as well.

Obviously we need our managerial situation sorted first, but hopefully transfer stuff is well advanced already.

It's Mundo Deportivo. It's a Barcelona publication. It's one day before Real Madrid's biggest game of the season. Go figure.

I really don't, i think he would be ideal to play the Hamsik/zielinski role that Sarri had Napoli. Just a great fit that i can't see going wrong.

Jump from Eredivise to EPL for playmakers hasn't been successful recently (Delay, Klaassen, etc).
