Anyone care to explain to me where the squad places are assuming we’re willing to spend 200m? There’s just no room for anything other than a striker and a LB and I don’t see mendy leaving. Who’s making room for Grealish (absolutely convinced that one is near zero from fan perspective). Fern is extending and I mentioned the LB situation….

It’s all there for a striker. Pay the extra 30m for Mr. Haaland and call it a summer. Release the sancho sell on if you have to.

Save the Grealish money for next year once Gundogan is a year older and also pick up a DM.

Raz will get his extension and pay rise, extend Mahrez by a year and get his raise, KdB got his raise, and give foden the bag. Eaaaasy summer? Haaland isn’t on anything crazy compared to the rest. Settled.

To Chelsea probably but if he actually is available for that, I reckon it could speed up any decision we make on Kane

I’m not sure they are willing to let him go and for that price, but I would take him before Kane without a shadow of a doubt. He and Kevin have been great friends for many, many years

Doubt they would even consider that. Fairly sure that was Gabbys second choice and a swap deal is nonnegotiable. To your point, i’d have him over Kane.

I think the shit might hit the fan if UEFA follow through on this morning's COPE story and ban Madrid, Barcelona, and Juventus from next season's CL. Will have ripple effects throughout the market as those clubs will undoubtedly have to slash their wage bills further.

It's interesting that Ronaldo has basically said he's off and has done everything he wanted at Juventus even though they qualified for the CL and would be clear favourites for another Serie A title with a new manager/Inter selling everyone. A couple of weeks ago all the talk was that he was happy as long as they were in the CL.

Maybe he and Mendes know something we don't about Juventus' CL situation.

I'm on the fence as to whether UEFA have the balls to do this. I hope they do because it'd be delicious.

On Ronaldo, a return to Portugal or the rags?

Currently, no room for anyone other than a striker, who takes the squad space of Aguero. Garcia leaving doesn't free up a squad space. Once/if a striker comes in, regaedless of nationality, squad is full and it is one in one out for any other signings. Including LB.

Agree with the rest myself.

Wow, I hadn't realised we were back on the limit with the squad. So basically someone has to leave for every incoming after the striker?

Doubt it will come to that though. But wouldn't it be sweet.
 
Not that Inter would EVER sell lukaku for 75m, this is complete nonsense, but if for some reason they did, he should be here tomorrow. absoiute no brainer.

100%. Been saying this on multiple threads. At least if we want the squad to be eligible in all competitions, i.e we arent going to shun players for the CL which many are happy to take for granted.

We are at full capacity now, a striker replaceds sergio, Garcia's space is irrelevant, Dinho stays, still at full capacity.

Persumably Carson may leave, but his space is onlynfreed up if a club trained keeper replaces him, any other keeper takes the space up again.

I mean I'll be honest, I'm not a football scout and I can't bare Italian football so I've not seen tons of him.

I'm just at the point where I think any natural finisher in this team playing in the 9 position would be eating good all year every year.

That explains an awful lot of what I've heard about this summer's window. I should've maybe been less lazy and checked this myself weeks ago!

It’s time to stick the dagger in though. We’ve got the full bag for ONE man. I don’t think you play around with the CF position. Just ask Atleti and chelsea.
