Don't get me wrong I'm happy we are in for two cracking midfielders but we need a striker more than two midfielders 

Who cares about signing strikers? They are overrated.

The plot thickens...

Simon Phillips very confident a striker is coming in. Plus, sounds like Morata out is on.

Birsa from Chievo is going to Cagliari

Cagliari all of a sudden are activating release clauses, it's Nandez from Boca Juniors.

Based on the profile of players we've brought in the summer and those we've brought/targeting this month, I would be amazed if the club made a 'quick-fix' purchase of a striker.

The penny may have dropped and the club are looking to rebuild fresh with a young core.

Hopefully this is the start of fresh new and young signings and we are going to blow the living shit out of the January window.

We're gonna sign both?!  

It makes sense positionally. A Naingollan-type (maybe not the shooting, but deffo better passing) in Barella, and an actual Backup/Rotation DH DMF in Paredes. I still would prefer Tonali as he is younger and needs time to ease into Jorginho slots a bit and learn slowly, but Paredes is the finished article.

Apparently he's been great at collecting dirty pots and dishes in the canteen.

I think we are spending the Hazard money we get for him in the summer

Two midfielder wow. One make sense, two make 0 sense. We have kante, kova, rlc, Barkley, jorgi. 5 players for 3 position. Imo that is the minimum , 6 is good but 7 is too many. 

[Pizy 18,368]

Signing both would be crazy. While it would be sensational from our (the fans') perspective to have such a gluttony of quality midfielders, it would seem strange from the players' perspective. Paredes in particular is so damn similar to Jorginho. Couldn't see the two playing together so he'd purely be cover for him? Can't see it.

Barella is the one we really want.  

[Jase 43,479]

Barella in the summer for Kovacic?
