14 games, 1 goal, crazy drama with JA national team. Yep, his career at BayArena is looking sparkling.

His output so far this season is making Willian look Salah 2017-18 like. Huge disappointment so far. Leverkusen would be in relegation battle if not for Kai Havertz. Still may be. I think their manager is shit, given the insane young talent that squad has.

I would not be shocked to see Heiko Herrlich get the sacking by the holidays if he keeps up the turgid pace. He has crazy talent at his disposal and yet sits in 13th place in an 18 team league.

Worth the risk. 

If Drinkwater cost that, then 32 for a young upcoming player is worth a shot.

The links we have to some players last longer than some TV series!

We've been linked with Bailey getting on 2 years now - and victimpool.

Just one of many that we wont sign but still be linked to the next year!

Think if we sell CHO we might go for Bailey?!

With Willian still here he will still be on the bench most of his time.

Bailey is a left-footed inverted RW, CHO is clearly better on the LW.

With Eden clearly leaving so it seems its a replacement we should be looking for NOW.

ATM prefer Hirving Lozano at LW, unless Bailey comes as backup RW (instead of Malcom) at a fair price. Bailey would struggle at LW IMHO.

My big 'get it done' post had

LW Pulisic

LW Lozano

RW Suso (due to Nicolas Pepe crazy price of £72m set by Lille)

RW Malcom 

Malcom plus cash deal for Willian looks dead, so in my actual true wish list (assuming Eden and CHO leave)

I would love our wingers to end up after summer as

LW Pulisic

LW Lozano

RW Nicolas Pepe (get Lille to come to £55 to £60m)

RW Leon Bailey

RW/LW backup  Pedro 

Add in Jovic and Piątek both (or just Icardi)

Tammy as 3rd striker (if just Icardi comes then I guess keep Giroud and let him battle it out with Tammy)

that would be a wicked front attacking 3, stronger than we have now, even with Eden and CHO leaving.

Well you know I'm all in on all that lot. I THINK too that Loz MIGHT be the better starter too but I'm happy with Pully.

If we can get Bailey at that price we should go for him
