Vesper 30,219 Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 1 hour ago, King Kante said: Don't care how long it takes this summer, but, if the club can do it, I want to see this by the end of the window: GK: Mendy, Areola, Kepa/GK3 CB: Silva, AC (new contract), Rudi (New contract), Dave, James*, Guehi WB: Hakimi, James*, Chilwell, Alonso CM: Kante, Kova, Jorgi +1 (James*?!?) AM: Havertz, Mount, Puli, Werner*, CHO CF: Håland, Werner*, Giroud *denotes player that can play multiple positions. For me Gilmour has a chance at CM4 but I really think he would be better off getting some real minutes. Brighton would be ideal, if not there then Spain or something. agree on most but I have a few thoughts to add you also left out wingers first, we obviously need to finish off 2 crazy hard deals to begin with (Hakimi and especially Håland) if both fall through then we are in scramble mode next Guehi is not Chels CB level IMHO harsh, but just my current stance that MAY change, but ATM I am not buying into it, especially due to his height IF we were to keep him, Zouma leaves (I am all for that) and then (a nightmare buy for me) were to buy Kounde, that leaves us with only TWO CB's over 6 feet tall (AC and Rudiger) on the squad, and so does your list as well Silva leaves next year 99% likely as well (he is 6 feet on the nose) and if another nightmare occurs, and Rudiger leaves on a free, we are down to ONE, unless we buy another (surely we would). That is why I am so so against Kounde, he is not only outrageously overpriced, but is a dwarf. Listed as 5-10 and I think that is a lie. Maxence Lacroix (1.90m) is out there now for £25m (confirmed by Wolfsburg). There are others too, including some young giants like Botman (1.95m) IF Alonso leaves, that is more height gone as even a limited option. we also, will soon need a DMF Aurélien Tchouaméni or Locatelli for me, bit it may have to wait (in which case Locatelli will be gone) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for CB, the way I see it is we can roll with Silva, AC, Rudi, James and Guehi to at least Jan. For me, Guehi would only be getting the odd game out of that five. If there are issues then, I reckon you can go in January. As for CM, I am still of the opinion I want a goal scoring No.6 rather than a defensive one. If we go there, I want SMS. I admit I haven't seen much of Locatelli or Tchou so I cannot make an opinion. However, I want to see strength, height and goals from our next No.6 and he is one of the few that I think can do all three. Pace of the league is the only issue with him. As for Alonso, as I am sure you're aware, I am a big supporter of his, so ideally we keep him. For me you only consider letting him go is if their is an offer (or eqivilent) of over €20m.

See in a year or two imo. Think he will need to bulk out a bit for the PL, could see teams kicking him up in the air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gosens would be great, he was who I wanted last season. However, such a deal would require Atlanta taking Emerson if we have Alonso go to Inter in the Hakimi deal. Not sure the club would want to do this as Chilwell would then become a £50m LB2. Edited June 19, 2021 by King Kante Fernando 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
