It annoys people whenever I say it, but I still think it’s true - there is no way we start next season with only a new player and KWP at right back.
Depends on how serious Levy is on giving Poch the right tools this summer. If he keeps asking ridiculous fees like £40m for Trippier then no chance. He’s got to realise the days when he could shift shite to desperate PL clubs has gone. The TV money means they can sign good foreign players where they couldn’t before.It annoys people whenever I say it, but I still think it’s true - there is no way we start next season with only a new player and KWP at right back.
depends for me. If he is PL proven and not injury prone I think Foyth/Dier can cover as 3rd.It annoys people whenever I say it, but I still think it’s true - there is no way we start next season with only a new player and KWP at right back.
Why?It annoys people whenever I say it, but I still think it’s true - there is no way we start next season with only a new player and KWP at right back.
Well, they are all OK but would all make us stronger? We have quite a few of squad rotation acceptable AMs, and don't need more in the Zaha-category. A player with traits like Grealish, who can mix it up between CM and AM, could be of interest but I doubt very much that Grealish is the correct specific candidate.
Because while I like KWP, I don’t get the sense that MoPo thinks he is an upgrade over Aurier or Trippier, and we won’t downgrade our second choice RB. League experience is one thing but when players change teams, coaches, systems, they often struggle for weeks or months to find form, so your second choice needs to be rock solid and I think Poch considers KWP risky.Why?
I think Zaha is overpriced, but even so, this team does look very balanced and dangerous, even if Eriksen still goes.I'm surprised you honestly think all those four players are just ok.... Wan Bissaka i would say is defensively the best and hardest RB to get past in the league, he would automatically make our RB area twice as good as it is.
We currently have so little depth in CM, Tielemans would add way more passing ability to the middle of the park, whilst Winks is great at dictating tempo he isn't too great with his range of passing. Tielemans would add that and has 5 assists playing in a deeper role than Eriksen.
I disagree on Zaha, i think Son and Zaha either side of Kane would be scary. Lucas in the mix as well to keep both on their toes. With Kane out these as a front 3 would be fantastic cover as well.
And Grealish is quite the leader as well, he is dragging Villa potentially up into the Premier league and would add some Dele competition. In our team he would flourish massively.
Not one of these is out of our league.
We haven't spent any money recently and with the unexpected extra cash from the Champions League, on top of decent money we can get on selling 4 or 5 players i don't see why this isn't achievable.
The best thing about this is they all have experience with the league.
Quite interesting to hear your points about these not making us stronger and whey you consider them as only OK. I'm interested in your opinion?
Get real. No way would City strengthen us. They can afford to sell him abroad for cheaper.I would rather Sane than Zaha and most likely similar fees

With Wan-Bissaka’s toughness, you no longer need Sissoko’s covering the right side as much like this season. Winks and Tielemans would be more elusive and set a real tempo. Tielemans releasing the pace of the wingers early, or picking out Kane dropping into his No 10 role, spinning and playing them through.Exactly, i think we would find some real balance, I would even argue that Sissoko should start and Winks or Tielemans partners him considering the season he has had. The options those four signings would bring us would be way better than what we have now.
I don’t think so. It’s just Sterling prefers to play from the left and is having the season of his life and Bernardo Silva on the right could end up being their best player.Come on you can't believe that. I love Sane, but something must be seriously wrong with his attitude considering Pep doesn't start him and being dropped or Germany last summer.

His contract is running down and he’s refusing to sign a new one, so it could happen.I would. Be surprised if sane left at all.
Dude has a giant tattoo of himself on his back... make of that what you will.I don’t think so. It’s just Sterling prefers to play from the left and is having the season of his life and Bernardo Silva on the right could end up being their best player.

I think it’s two left this summer.Must have 3 years left, maybe 2?? I don't keep up with these things, please tell if you are aware.
