Yes, I can just see Zaha as a fernandinho backup or retaining possession with close to 100% pass accuracy as a Silva substituteZaha?
Not in Kev or Silva's class, but then neither is Gundogan.

By 'within 50%' I meant up to £75m. £50m for Gundog & £25m on top for an upgrade.I think it’s unrealistic to get an upgrade on Gundoghan for circa £25M.
Gundog's spent many months injured since he's been here. Allied to the fact the team he's struggling to get a start in has broken nearly every record there is to break, I don't think he's in a strong position to protest.The trouble is mate those “someones” cost a hell of a lot of money (As would’ve Gundo pre his injuries) and demand to play week in week out, whereas Gundo, (like Navas before him), seems really happy here, and content to do a very competent job, as a squad member from the bench, whenever the need arises.
Who mentioned anything about back ups?I know i've asked this question before but forgot the answer now. So humor me for a 2nd with names of these backups who'd challenge Silva and Kev but yet be happy with a back up role?
We should be signing players to challenge these two, not ones who're happy just to warm the bench every week.
No domestic team, in whatever country, can carry two world class players for every position as it’s totaly impractical, both in terms of cost & squad harmony.Who mentioned anything about back ups?
Forgive me if I'm incorrect! but did Pep say when coming to City that he wanted 2 quality players 4 each position?No domestic team, in whatever country, can carry two world class players for every position as it’s totaly impractical, both in terms of cost & squad harmony.
Are you seriously suggesting, that both KDB & Merlin aren’t really all that, and, therefore, need to be shipped out in order to be replaced by a couple of better players (who also have to be attainable, don’t forget) asap?

Sold. Let’s start making room for Academy players to step up.
