I wouldnt be against this. We need to give Emery the option to rebuild the team. While Xhaka has improved and is an important cog in the machine i think we could do better. 40m plus we'd be foolish not to look at it.

Can you name one midfielder as good as 2018-19 Xhaka, that went for 40m or less last summer? Not trying to attack you, I'm genuinely curious.

This question relies on the assumption that Xhaka has been great.......

You could ask the same thing about 2013-14 Coquelin (No one knew about Kante)

2014-15 Giroud (Aubameyang/Lacazette/Higuain and later on Mbappe and Dybala)

2011-12 Walcott (Griezmann)

2017-18 Mustafi (De ligt)

But to answer your question, Torreira.

To give my actual answer, no one here is a scout so your question is kind of pointless IMO. You're asking people who have no financial incentive to do so, to scout around Europe and the world for what exactly?

Plenty of players who are better than our lot existed before anyone knew of them and I Just listed a few in brackets. We just need to find them before they blow up like how we used to do with Pires, Ljungberg, Petit and the rest.

Not sit here asking baseless questions like "Who is better than Xhaka at that price?" As if Sven or Luis Boa Morte post here.

Fabinho 40m & Jorginho 50m (+Sarri). Arguably both back then were less divisive with more hype than Xhaka.

Now that Ramsey has left, he's our best midfielder. That says a lot about our current options, but you'd be stupid to sell your best CM unless they offer crazy money. Which Inter won't.

Let's get rid of Elneny and buy a proper world class Ramsey replacement instead. Keep Xhaka for depth.
