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

The closer we get to the summer window (1st of June), without hearing anything from FIFA, are we less likely to receive an immediate transfer ban, or does it make no odds, could they just spring it on us at the end of May?

We seem to be linked with quite a few players now so don't know if to get my hopes up or not.
 
out:
Gundogan (If he does not want to extend his contract) 20M
Otamendi 15-20M
Mahrez (better for both sides) 35-40 M

In
Ndombele/Rodri 65M
Joao Felix 100M
De Ligt 65M
Rabiot (for free)

We also need a new LB but I cant think of anyone now who is good enough
 
Posted this in the Jovic thread but it's probably more useful here.


Non homegrown
Ederson,, Bravo, Danilo, Laporte, Otamendi, Kompany, Mendy, Zinchenko,Fernandinho, Silva, Bernardo , DeBruyne,Gundogan, Sane,Mahrez, Jesus, Aguero.
Homegrown
Stones, Walker, Delph, Sterling.
Plus I think either U21 or club trained. Muric, Foden, Garcia, Sandler will be with the 1st team squad.

I think as it stands for next season, so as far as I can tell for every one in, in either list,we need one out
 
IMO - we need a top class striker - I'm not sold on Jesus at all.

More pressing - slightly - than striker - is a world class DM to (eventually) replace Fernandinho.

Nail these two positions - and we're set for an even better season next.

Fail to secure both positions... and we're not as well-placed as the current season.

IMO Chilwell for Delph, Bravo, Otamendi, maybe Kompany to be replaced meaning we can have three new foreign imports. No idea who they will be.

Don't think we need a left back with Zinchenko and Mendy but not sue we'll buy a HG in any other position so think Delph will stay. Bravo may go but will we risk a season with only Ederson as our experienced keeper plus Muric and academy keeper, not sure.
I'm sure we'll bring in a non homegrown DM but if it's in place of Otamendi I think Kompany will stay and we'll use Garcia or Sandler otherwise we'll need to buy a CB . Still think Gundogan most likely to make space for the DM after that it's a bit of a juggling act.

Sandler is too old to be considered as an U21 player

Joao Felix: 100 million


That's it.

We've bought Zack Steffen from Colombus Crew so he'll do as a back up keeper i guess
 
Right now, my thoughts are:
  1. Alderweireld (Otamendi) +10m
    Being more comfortable in wide areas, even to the point of playing RB, Alderweireld would offer more flexibility than Otamendi. He could do what Laporte often does for us on the opposite side, allowing Stones to play in the centre and Dinho/Rodri dropping into CB, creating a 3-2-2-3 formation which, imo, is a natural evolution for this team. On top of being available at a good price and being faster and generally more stable than Otamendi, Alderweireld is also a year younger so wouldn't completely block E.Garcia's future like signing another young CB would. We must not lose Garcia
  2. Bertrand (Delph) =
    A stop gap, far more reliable than Delph, in order to allow Mendy a chance to prove his fitness. If Mendy can't stay fit till the end of this season I would understand earmarking more resources for someone like Chilwell. Admittedly, the extent of the likely transfer ban could make a stop gap solution unwise. A 2 window ban starting in Jan would change things
  3. Rodri (Gundogan) -30m
    A DM is needed regardless of Gundogan staying or going but if he does go we could do worse than putting further faith in Foden. I would understand the club replacing Gundogan on top of bringing in Rodri, who looks the most ideal candidate I've seen linked thus far for DM, if we were to go for Thiago Alcantara, such is his quality, but that is unlikely.
  4. Felix (Mahrez) -50m
    Felix is raw but fantastic potential and seems more versatile than Mahrez. Part of me thinks Mahrez should get another season to prove himself but he is basically our 3rd choice RW at this point, Felix being able to play all accross the front (I see a potential ST in him in the future) and maybe even as a 'free 8' is a big plus. He is raw but 100m might be as cheap as he gets. Sancho would be an alternative I'd have no problem going big on in the unlikely event he'd be open to it. Mahrez has been a huge disappointment thus far.
70m net or thereabouts, minus whatever we can get for Mangala (if anything) and some of the loan lads

Fair reasoning but where does Zin factor in all these, esp LB situation ?

Pep said 4 players probably 5 if Ottamendi leaves so change Bertrand for James { versatility and a higher work rate } still think it is Ndombele and all the others are just a ruse and bring in Bissaka and i would be over the moon with that
