The Wish List

and yes its unrealistic theres no way Mkhi and Mustafi will leave. There wages are too high. Theres also no way we will get FOUR amazing, young centre backs especially for the prices you listed.

 

Lewis Dunk

 

Its called WISH LIST for a reason.

 

My wish-list breakdown because I am bored as hell at work

Ins (Bold = done) -
Martinelli - £6M (£3M this summer)
Saliba - £27M (£4M this summer)
Ceballos - LOAN (£4M this summer)
Pepe - £72M (£20M this summer)
Tierney - £25M (£15M this summer)
Ruben Dias - £54M (£20M this summer)

Total face value - £188M. Total this summer - £66M

Outs (Bold = done) -
Ospina - £5M
Benaccer - £4M fee from sell on clause
Koscielny - £4M
Mustafi OR Chambers - £20M
Elneny - £8M

Total sales - £41M

Probably bring this summers payments down to around the £50M mark, absolutely spot on in my eyes. Even room for Dani Alves if there's time

 

You're reading it wrong. It's one CB out of those options and the other mentioned players. With the Mustafi links hopefully my list is not too unrealistic.

@GDeep™

 

ok i was gonna say. Tbh I really hope we dont get Rugani, ive heard really bad things from Juve fans about him. Id rather we get a younger centre back like Boubacar Kamara or Malang Sarr. I think tho we should try and get Romagnoli. They want Bielik and there in heavy debt. Perhaps offer like £30m + Bielik to hopefully get a deal

 

BEST POSSIBLE WINDOW:

In:
Nicolas Pepe - £72m
William Saliba - £28m
Dani Ceballos - Loan
Gabriel Martinelli - £6m
Kieran Tierney - £25m
Youcef Atal - £20m
Presnel Kimpembe - Loan Option To Buy For £30m

Out:
Krystian Bielik - £10m
Mohamed Elneny - £10m
Shkodran Mustafi - £25m
Laurent Koscielny - £9m
Petr Cech - Retired
Aaron Ramsey - Released
Stephan Lichtsteiner - Released
Danny Welbeck - Released

Thats the dream window

 

Outs: Jenkinson (2m), Mustafi (10m), Mavrapanos (loan), Kolasinac (15m), Maitland Niles (25m), El Nenny (5m), Iwobi (30m), Mkhi (10m).

In: Umtiti (15m loan with obligation), Coutinho (20m loan with obligation), Tierney (25m).

 

Love it minus Kola. At the very least he can act as team security.

 

Kimpembe, Atal and Chilwell(next summer)

 

Tierney + Upamecano

 

Tierney as Monreal too slow now
A New CB
A New CB
A Nwe CB
A New CB

yes a new F**king CB or we are doomed

 

Seamus Coleman.

GK: Leno
RB: Coleman
CB: Sokratis
CB: Holding
LB: Kola
Cm: Torreira
Cm: Ceballos
ACM: Özil
LW: PEA
RW: Pepe
CF: Laca

 

Tierney + Upamecano + Coutinho + Sangare

 

Leno
Bellerin
Holding
Romagnoli
Tierney
Torreira
Xhaka
Ceballos
Pepe
Coutinho
Lacazette

Martinez
AMN
Chambers
Sokratis
Kola
Guendouzi
Willock
Özil
Nelson
Saka
Auba

Monreal
Iwobi



Maybe try Mustafi and Miki plus 25m for Romagnoli. Then pick up Coutinho on loan. Tierney for 25m.

 

Arjen Robben and Frank Ribbery on a free need that leadership get Icardi he’s quality and undermined There’s loads of quality players out for free I’d rather pay a big wage then a transfer

 

Robben would have been a good shout, until we signed Pepe. Ribery isn't what we need .

 

GOOD SOLID CB
