Tbh, the RCB gets played as a Half Back in the current system. Not sure you need a 'real' CB for the position. Dave and James are fine imo for that position. 

Well, either we get a RWB then or an out-and-out CB.

If we sell Zouma, we'll have only 3 out-and-out CBs in Rudiger, Christensen and Silva and I'm not sure Silva's fitness, especially, will hold up for an entire season. If one of them gets injured, then James or Azpi will be moved to the middle three, then leaving the other one for the RWB slot with no backup. Of course, Tuchel could switch to a back 4 or CHO can be used as a RWB but god knows where he is now in Tuchel's mind.

We will sign Traore or promote Livramento. We have CBs coming back from loan and in the academy too. We need to find ways to utilise what we have before spending a 30-40m of squad players. Especially if we want to buy Haaland or Mbappe.

Why are you guys concerned about MF? We have 2 ballon d'or candidates 😌

Because our depth is 1. We have 3 MFs competing for 2 spots. If Kante gets injured, we can't win the league with Jorginho/Kovacic pivot.

agree. we completely ran jorginho and kante in the ground after kova's injury and it bit us. we need another one for cover.

With Billy going, we must have someone in mind, even if that is Gallagher.

I think it's because a loan is the best thing for the players development. Keeping him here to play half a role another season will stunt his growth. Gallagher spent last season at West Brom, I think he's ready to cover. I would definitely prefer someone like Barella or Locatelli to improve us though.

I suspect Gallagher will go on loan again. Tuchel reportedly wants a midfielder signing.

gallagher could actually work. he is very flexible can play every position in midfield, so for sure he can dapt himself to the player next to him.

instead of 70 million for Hakimi or 50 to Rice

give them for Nico Barella - what a warrior  🤩

 

Barella - Jorginho- Verratti - thats why  Italy going to  Win EURO

Doku has so much potential wouldn’t be surprised to see Dortmund pick him up.

Spinazzola's injury means Emerson gets some playing time to hopefully increase his value.

Err, is it a good thing if the value goes up for an unwanted player? That would just mean less clubs can afford in signing him.
