Coming in & going out this summer

[Wretched Vengeance]

In

Gotze
Baines
Suarez
Isco
Benat
Marquinhos
Kondogbia

Out

Kolo
Lescott
Kolarov
Nasri
Dzeko
Garcia
Sinclair

Can't see Baines and Clichy as a 1-2. Both too good.

Gotze- Would love , but can't see it.

Saurez- posssibly, divides opinion. Would cost upwards of 40 million.

Not sure how much therefore that would leave for Isco and Benat as I would imagine they would both be expensive being future Spain Internationals.

The other 2 I have not heard of.

PS. I need to ask a question with regard to training.... I love to get a few opinions on things.

Its to do with a variation of pull-ups.

Positions that need strengthening (in order of preference):

Central Midfielder
Benat
Gundogan
Fernandinho

Winger
Bale
Di Maria
Reus

Striker
Falcao
Cavani
Suarez

Out: Kolo, Bridge, Maicon (unfortunately), Nasri, Dzeko/Tevez, Santa Cruz

Other than that, we would only need to replace other departing squad players (Lescott, Kolarov, Sinclair etc.)

 

[ROCKET80]

In:

Striker - Cavani/Falcao/Suarez

Winger/Wide Forward - Bale/Sanchez/Jovetic (Suarez could be added to this list if we're to play 433)

Midfielder - I have no idea on this one Benat/Fellani/Xabi Alonso
We may go for Isco should Nasri leave.

Possibly a young left back.

Out:
Lescott
Kolo (Although I think I read we're to offer him a 1yr contract)
Kolarov
Maicon
Dzeko
Possibly Sinclair and Tevez

Nobody simply 'coming out' then ?

While I personally think he is ungettable (at least this year), Gundogan puts Benat to shame. Benat is a good prospect but Gundogan is literally world class.

Oh yes, this is true. Should have put Ilkay first

id have gundogan over benat every day. Benat did play good in the first part of the season, but he hasn't shown anything over these last couple of weeks. Also he haven't really played on a top lvl before he graduated betis b in 2010 which is late considering he is 26 years old. Also gundogan is only 22 :)

For a CM what about Lars Bender? No one seems to have mentioned him, would be cheaper and easier than Gundogan.

How is he world class, he has the potential to be, but has only been good for one season. There are only a few players who are world class and I think calling Gundogan world class right now is a bit of an over estimate
