It’s Quiet 20 - What is the Wirtz that could happen?

I've just had it with our midfield being crap.

I could understand if we were outplayed by PSG/ Juve/ Real Madrid like we were but we're being outplayed by Leicester, Sporting and Feyenoord in midfield. Quite a few others too.

Don't forget what he did in the tail end of the Real Madrid 1st tie either.. but Rico got all the blame.

Like you said.. it's harsh but Sabotage-ovic is not even a league 2 DM.. never mind a PL DM. He has to go!
If you called him Sabotage-ovic once and then moved on you could have got a point for wit. Referring to him only by that silly nickname makes you come across as those weirdos under every facebook post spewing their brainrot like it is their only language. "Penaldo", "Pessi", "Ueafalona". Incredible to see from grown men

Kovacic isn't a good dm because he isn't a dm. Poor squad planning and incredibly poor adapting fron Pep this season is to blame
 
Only Walker and Grealish are leaving.

We still have: Ake, Stones, Foden, Bobb, Carson, 3 of the academy to fill out our quota of 8 domestic slots.

Now if one of Stones or Ake is moving on (which might be hard to do).. I could see an opening but I doubt it.

And we could get an English backup keeper for not a lot to make the numbers work. We don't have to go in for English stars.. and we should give the English academy players we manufacture a chance to save us money.
Pointless in having stones or Ake...perma crocks who aren't on the pitch enough

Happy to see Grealish go...absolute flop imho

Foden and Bobb are club trained whereas Carson, Ake and Stones are association trained. Means we have a spot free, wouldn’t be surprised to see us go for Wharton as he fills that spot and plays in a position we need cover.

I think the club will look at whether we can support crocked defenders with very little time left on their contracts. Ake has two years left and will only play 683 minutes in the league this season. Stones has one year left and is likely to finish the season on 545 minutes. Brilliant player as he is when fit, he’s never fit. Even Akanji will likely miss half the season. We have 7 players who can play at centre back in the squad but 3 of them have been available for less than half our league matches.

As it stands we have one too many foreign players, if say Kovacic and Nunes leave then we have a single spot free.

I could see Gundogan possibly staying but maybe left out of the champions league squad.

Huge question marks obviously over Ederson, KDB, Bernardo and to a degree Ortega. It would seem though we may have a one in one out policy with foreign players this summer.

As it stands we have 2 too many players for the free list, neither Echeverri or Reis could have been registered for the C/L squad.Think you're right about Wharton being the obvious choice to take Grealish's spot on the 4 homegrown list,also about Gundogan not being included in the CL squad..
 
Munich wants to buy one of David or Woltemade , Wirtz and Nico Williams. Don’t know how they going to pay for all of them but I guess they will try to get rid of Gnabry, Sane and Coman who wants to leave anyways

Keeping Gundogan as the new kit man?
 
We need to invest in some real quality as Madrid aren’t stopping are they? TAA and now Zubimendi looking likely? Bayern bought some quality in the last 12 months and going for more as well.

We only need all our players back according to Pep

They can have Trent. He will grab a bag of assists but any winger worth their salt will just utterly decimate him.

Zubimendi I am yet to be convinced by in all honesty.

I watched him for Sociedad against United and thought he was average and lightweight. He is a good player but if Madrid are willing to let Camavinga go for him they are losing not gaining.

My point was to be honest mate that they are continuing to hoover up talent? Camavinga may be the fall guy as onece TAA arrives then Valverde can go back into midfield?
