2019 Summer Window - Whom do we Need ? - Whom will we Sign?

Could see the squad change this summer in a big way.
Bravo released
Mangala free
Nico sold
Delph sold
Gundogan sold cash in before goes for free
Kompany coach/backup
Mahrez cant decide maybe given a season or he might want to leave.
D.silva transitioning out

American goalie fulltime No 2
Wan bissaka & chilwell in.
Johnathan tah
Ferna back up
New winger/front 3 player if mahrez goes. Hopefully leon bailey. Added advantage he is sterlings best mate.
Foden taking more game time.
2/3 Eds garcia/sandler/Douglas Luiz etc taking up more squad places.
 
I personally wasn't thrilled with the idea of selling Otamendi this summer but with a potential transfer ban in 2020 it may mean we can't afford to offload him then, so we do it now and bring in the replacement. Extend Vinny one more year. Loan Sandler to Girona, let Garcia be the fifth CB. I expect the club to sell Tosin.

Then of course a left back and defensive mid. I think the fourth player would only be if we sold Gundogan. Should be a more exciting summer than the last one!
 
Could see loads happening.

Forward
Maybe cb if otamendi leaves.
Maybe rb if Danilo wants to leave.
Maybe a cm if gundogan gets sold and David getting older.
Maybe even another winger if mahrez wants to leave but I think we’ll give him another season.
 
No personal feelings about any player, just an interesting prediction.

Out: Bravo (free), Mangala (free), Otamendi (25m), Delph (20m), Gundogan (35m), Roberts (10m), M.Garcia (15m), D.Luiz (20m). Sandler (Loan), Muric (Loan), Garcia (Loan) Total: 125m

In: Steffen (already signed, 8m), De Ligt (65m), Ndombele (65m), Chilwell (40m), Jovic (40m, loaned back for 1 year).
Total: 218m

Net spend: 93m

Ederson, Steffen

Walker, Danilo, Stones, Laporte, De Ligt, Kompany, Chilwell, Mendy

KDB, Silva, Fernandinho, Ndombele, Zinchenko, Foden

Aguero, Jesus, Sterling, Sane, Bernardo, Mahrez

17 foreign players, 4 home grown, 1 club trained
 
Wan-Bissaka should be a priority. Would allow Walker to rest a bit more, and play CB in a pinch. Don’t know if he’d be as good in a 2 as a 3, but we dominate possession and his pace would likely be higher than any CB we have.

DM - Saul, Ndomebele
CB - De Ligt, Skriniar, promote Garcia
LB - Not sure, maybe Chillwell
Striker - Don’t know if we need one, but only having 2 strikers playing 60 games is dangerous, especially given Kun’s age & injury record
