Disagree. Sanchez replaced Wimmer and Fazio (Sold after Loan to Roma) His signing had nothing to do with Walker leaving. I suspect had Walker stayed, Sanchez would have been signed against to exits of both Wimmer and Fazioi dont think walker staying and not signing Aurier has made any difference to our season and it allowed us to bring Sanchez in, without him and Tobys injury i think we would be a lot worse off
Lets put it another way.
Are Davies and Trippier an elite set of full backs that are fit to play for an elite champions league club?
But neither of those transfers out put meaningful funds back into our transfer kitty. It was the money from the Walker transfer that funded Sanchez.Disagree.

This is very much the truth. Whether we like it or not. As disappointing as this week is, we have lost to an elite team. No two ways about it, Juve are in the final consistently in recent years.We're not an elite club.
@TropicalYid tell me why you think we are?
Why we are what?
An elite club, people have disagreed but no one has said why they think we are?
I really dont know what you are quoting me on. sorry mate.
There are not a whole lot of LBs in the PL who are better than Davies this season. There are a couple, but not many.
Statically only Ashley Young has been better than him.
Alonso, and that's about it. Young and Delph have been good for the Manchester clubs, but not categorically better than Ben imo.There are not a whole lot of LBs in the PL who are better than Davies this season. There are a couple, but not many.

It's strange to see the criticism here. He's been outstanding this season. You can go on about needing elite fullbacks, but Ben has been performing at an elite level this season.
