Centre Midfield

Well we are talking about Kroos as a potential signing, & his general m.o. is to watch people run about whilst someone else picks them up.

I think Kroos runs rather more than people give him credit for.

So does Yaya but both are a liability when expected to chase oppo players.

I feel if we sign one it will be kroos

Get Kroos. He'd be the jewel in the crown. I'd say to Madrid name your price. A truly fantastic footballer, effortless the way he floats around the football field.

This all day. A midfield 3 of Kroos Gundogan and Fernandinho would fucking boss the league

Glad others have seen this. The kid has the eye of the tiger about him, as well as a pass.

There were glimpses of it against Chelsea last season.

I would put Manu Garcia, Angelino and Maffeo in the same category.

These kids are hungry and desperate to please a man they are in awe of.

Those kids hit the lottery. Imagine coming of age under Pep. The timing for them is perfect.

rakitic would be more likely than kroos imo

Kroos would be the icing on the cake if we could pull it off. We'd boss the league and be a strong chance to win the CL IMO

To be honest, I agree with the OP. Fernandinho and Gundogan are both excellent, but I still think we need one more (unless Guardiola can get Toure back to his best, but that might be optimistic). I'm not convinced either Delph or Fernando are good enough and whilst Garcia is a great prospect, he needs time to develop.

The fact that Kroos was targeted suggests that the club also see it as an area we need to strengthen. It's odd that we haven't really been linked with anyone else, but I guess the club aren't going to spend for the sake of it. If the right player isn't available then presumably we'll just work with what we've got.

Spot on. Gundogan's injury sounded pretty serious and sometimes these injuries lead to subsequent niggles. Delph is average and himself injury prone. I think the issue is our inability to off load players though.
