Very adaptable would cost a lot of money but what choice do we have
Calvalho. Christ I hope not.

Genuinely think Llorente would be a solid signing
Ok. Lets say I disagree. A Center back is 5th on our list of needs.How is that wrong? It's exactly what we need.Good centre back, keeper, full backs and an energetic midfielder who can win the ball.
Bonucci will be a poor decision.
That should do it.
Everyone keeps saying this yet we miss more chances than the devil trying to get into heaven. I don't get it. How can we be strong and yet miss so much?A top midfielder
Pair of fullbacks
Keeper to replace the blunder that has been Bravo
Whether or not we believe we can recruit internally or have to look outside I don't care, however these to me are the criticals going into next season
Paralel to that, the following must be shipped out for good:
Sagna
One of Delph or Fernando (or even both if possible)
Kolarov
Navas
Yaya
Bony
Nasri (need to cash in)
Mangala
Hart (need to cash in)
I'm on the fence about Vinnie - I knew Guardiola was trying to oust him in sly manner and I'm not a fan of it. However, reality is that he's costing us with us absences and there is no room for sentiment in this business.
Our attack looks to be our one real area of strength and something we're well covered in. I would be concerned if all I here about over the English summer is talks of buying the latest shiny attacking toy when our midfield and fullbacks are clearing lagging behind.
Bony mk 2, but old as well. Absolutely not for me, I'd be angry if we bought him. Mid table signing at best.
That logic makes sense if you're allowed to play him as well as the other 11 players, but if you add his "physical presence", you lose out on whoever he's replacing's ability to actually run, close people down, run in behind etc, etc, etc. Never in a million years would I want Llorente starting over Aguero or Jesus, nor would I really want to bring him on and start slinging balls into the box, as it would completely cripple everyone else in the team as they aren't suited to that.But is exactly what we dont have up front, a physical presence, doesnt matter that he's 32..in fact makes it more likely that he'd accept a back up/plan B role.
Aguero/Jesus/Llorente, absolutely nothing wrong with that.
