No point to continue with 4231 without Nkunku. We absolutely have no one to replace him. Maybe we are switching to 433 in which case 6 central and defensive midfielders would be ok. Caicedo, Enzo, Levia, Adams, Santos, Gallagher. But if we are bringing 3 MFs Conor may leave. And Ugo is still here. 

Only way is getting 2 more midfielders makes sense, really. Two DM’s + Enzo in a 4-3-3.

That's a risk in any context, we've signed multiple players with proven pedigree these last two years and look how that ended.

Of course, there is risk in any context. However, small sample sizes come with inherently more risk.

But in reality he has apparently been out for months and is still quite a long way from being fit. Not until after the first international break.

yes, the yanks are always whingeing how is never fully healthy for the US Mens Sr national team

Pretty sure I was reading over a month ago that we were agreeing something with Lavia and told him to wait. For example... 

Now Liverpool fans saying he just started following Shields on instagram. I don't think he is all Liverpool like previously suggested.

imagine

scuppering/pwning

Brighton (we buy BOTH Caicedo and Kudus, we already smacked them down on Colwill)

Pool (we buy Lavia)

Juve (Lukaku + a fair amount of dosh for Vlahvovic)

and

Bayern (we sell them Kepa (weeeeeeeeeeeeee) and buy Mamardashvili)

the last 3 are some of my oldest. deepest hatreds in football (along with Manure, Spuds, Arse, Barca, and Real, plus newer ones in Citeh and PSG)

and the newest annoyance is the first one listed above........... Brighton

If we get Lavia, Caicedo ain't happening.. I mean I like Lavia but got so invested in Caicedo and the news today that we were close.. would be disappointing.

We simply cannot miss out on Caicedo at this point. Lavia’s game is not mature enough to be the main, sole DM at a club with top 4 ambitions this season. So if we end up getting him instead of Caicedo we will struggle.

But if we get both somehow then who knows how high we should aim.

But why not meet valuation of 50m but offer 48m?

This reminds me of City offering 90m for Rice. 

Could be in both cases just pushing rivals to spend more. 

That’s definitely strange. Saw someone elsewhere mention that maybe we let them keep some of the Livramento money we were owed?

I was just about to make a depth team based on these signings

GK - Sanchez, Marmashdaville and bettinelli

RB - James and Gusto

RCB- Thiago and Disasi

LCB- Colwill and Badman (major battle for who gets top spot this season as I just took out colwill off my fantasy team because he now has serious competition in badiashile)

P.S LCB is very dependent on who Thiago can get the most out of. At times last year Benoit played like a badman but looked lost when Thiago was out injured. I hope colwill has more confidence and could be future captain 26.

LB- Chilwell CuCu and Maatsen (Hall loaned to Palace and straight into my fantasy team, Cucu probably demoted to cup games and cameos. Maatsen could do with a prem loan but we cant risk playing cucu for 6 months

Pivot -Enzo, Caicedo with lavia (better prospect than adams) and Santos as depth

AMF- MF Kudus pleaaaaase. We are screaming for a lampard type player for 10 years who can chip in with 10-15 goals a year. Chukwuemeka as backup.

RW- Sterling and Noni (not my favoured side of attack). Kudus could do a job here until Nkunku is back

LW- Mudryk and Sterling as a back up but I'd prefer to attack the side that doesn't have Sterling lol.

ST- Jackson, Vlahovic, Broja

So our 25 man squad would be as follows

Sanchez

Mamardashvili 

Bettinelli

James

Gusto

Chilwell

Maatsen

Cucu

Colwill

Badiashile

Thiago

Disasi

Enzo

Caicedo

Lavia/Gallagher (I think we know who is superior and it would be net zero - 10m loss for this to go through)

Santos

Kudus please ffs

Sterling

Madueke

Mudryk

Jackson

Vlahovic

Broja

This is a realistic 23 man squad we should have been aiming for since the end of the season. Team still needs a season to gel but i think we can get top 4 or 6 and challenge for a cup. Maybe go for the league the year after like arsenal did. This is all dependent on if we can get caicedo and kudus over the line.

Wanted to point out why lavia >gallagher

Today might be the most important day of this summer transfer. Let's hope it's Caicedo and Lavia or at least Caicedo and Adams, if it's Lavia and Adams, not confident we can get Top 5 this season.

You and a few others were saying there would be massive differences in getting Enzo in or not. Reality is - football doesn't work that way. 

 

Caceido isn't prime R9. Great player, but the gap in him and Lavia isn't gigantic. We are going to be competitive either way.
