how are they going to be able to spend like £400m in a single window?

I'd be surprised if a few more players aren't sold at Liverpool, considering they are all in on Isak and that young french striker at Frankfurt. 

Elliott, possibly Diaz (if fee is high enough).

Liverpool want to sign Rodrygo, reports @ESPNBrasil

I guess this could be a sign that Diaz is off to Barca or Bayern.

I know they didn’t spend anything really last summer but seriously, how are they going to be able to spend like £400m in a single window?

Selling Diaz and Nunez would help quite a bit.

It was obvious Ethan wasn't going to leave Arsenal, as his best mate just signed a new deal as well (MLS). 

There were posters on here who actually thought he'd walk 😆

The links with us were silly as he’d have just as hard of a time getting any minutes here. But it feels like he should be praying that Arse don’t sign Eze. Their supporters were already getting annoyed at Arteta not playing him enough last season. How is he going to get minutes if they have Odegaard and Eze at #10 and Saka + Madueke on the right?

Diaz, Darwin, Eliott, already sold Quansah

So excluding young players - loans or sales, we have to get rid of:
- Disasi, Veiga, Chilwell, Sterling, Felix, Broja, Chukwuemeka(probably count as a young loan).

Possible/optional departures:

- Chalobah(Hope not), KDH, Nkunku, Jackson 

We must buy:

- Cucu cover and another left sided attacker if George doesn't stay to cover LW.

The squad doesn't look too bad. With Pedro and Delap I am ok with keeping eighter of Jackson or Guiu. With 8 games in the CL there will be plenty of opportunity for everyone who deserves it. We don't need luxury players a.k.a. Felix. If we can get Hato and one of Rogers/Fofana/Garnacho we will be ready to go. I know Garnacho gets a lot of hate, but depending on the transfer fee and wages he could be a smart signing. Don't forget he will have Enzo as his Argentinian big bro in London.  Champion of the World!! GET IN!!!

Assuming this is true then it means more than it used to a few years ago.  These days it seems that buying clubs only contact the selling Club if they already have an agreement with the player. Could be therefore that this is happening.

Makes their Madueke signing all the more confusing. Phase 7 Arteta is going to be watching Madueke on the left wing

The price was set for Maignan, we just didn't want to meet it, that's not Milan's fault.

I said the other day we cannot be blind sided to think Sanchez after his PSG performance is the next coming of Gordon Banks, we must go out and get a top class keeper.

But I don't think we will

I have a feeling we might sign Mads Hermansen who is for sale at Leicester.

There are still 45 days or so but this sounds like the plan. 

I am a touch worried about our ability to breakdown defenses. Beating PSG is doable but finding a way past a parked Sunderland/West Ham/Wolves bus is what we will be up against every other week. We could really use Rogers or a creative player for those games. 

Also, would prefer signing a GK - at least a solid cover for Sanchez.

Jaoo Pedro is very creative also

Chukwumueka is too old to count as young loan. Also you forgot about Ugochukwu and Gilchrist.

Since Hato covers both CB and LB with just one signing we fix both positions. After him we are pretty much set. 

My prediction is that Neto will start mostly as LW because he is better than Gittens even tho natural RW.

I’ll wait till gittens has kicked a ball for us before I judge him

Depends on Jackson and Nkunku - if we sell both we will be again rather thin in forwards (as Maresca not trusting George. Also Estevao is still little bit uncertaing, so is Gittens TBH)
