Is that 3 players then!:))
Felix haaland bellingham
I think he would be perfect for us
Me too. I like the idea of him and Godri forming an unbelievable midfield combo.

My first two choices were Sanches or Bissouma, i thought Bellingham needed another year, but during this poor run without Haaland the lad has stood up, it is clear that the team is relying on him for leadership and dynamism , this summer might be right?
Can’t see Dortmund letting both of them go, in part for that reason. They are a selling club but they’re also pretty good in structuring their sales such that they don’t become dangerously destabilised over any given summer.
Sancho last summer
Haaland to leave this summer
Bellingham 2023 IMO
I think I tweeted him exactly that a few months ago.

Bellingham has looked class whenever I've watched him.
Are we pursing him? Is he interested in us?
If the answer to both of the above are, "Yes," - then I think it's quite a bit more likely that we'd be able to land Bellingham, then my dream signing, Haaland.

Just feels like a dipper in waiting this one, i suppose it depends on Klippertys long term future, as in his system he becomes yayaesque which I don’t want to see… not sure we can fit him in, timing wise, to the squad, we’re gonna have to prioritise other areas which effectively means the boat my fail to dock… pray he doesn’t end up at klanfield any time soon!

How old is young Jude these days?
It's been a while since some pundit has reminded me.

Hes gotten way too much hype at a young age to ever "settle" for the Rodri/Fernandinho role. Hes also not nearly technical enough to be an 8 for us. He'd probably be perfect at Liverpool.
It's the same issue with Pogba really. If he wanted to he could be a generational world class 6. But he's never going to accept that role. He was widely considered one of the best CMs in the world when Juve built a midfield 4 around him. He also looks great for France, when Kante does the dirty work and they stick Matuidi out wide and have 4 CBs in the back line.
Finding CMs that have best in the world technical skills, but still stay in their lane and graft is incredibly difficult. Finding world class players that are willing to be busquets but are still athletic enough to track back in England is even harder.
So in short be prepared to hate Bellingham because he will surely go to a domestic rival and spend a decade there.

Staying another year, obviously waiting for Real :)
Still eligible to win Young PotY in 2027 and could actually finish his playing career at Birmingham in the year 2040.
With the price of gas, I think we could very easily do both this summer, time to really piss everyone off.
If Pep signs up for longer , a good freshen up of the squad could well be on the cards.
