All are realistic, however the least likely is Gotze/Reus. In that instance the names are just umbrella terms for players of that ilk.
Hardly a FM indulgent post standard.

Can't see it, we would struggle to fill our homegrown quote without him. Plus the fact he is bloody good player at full fitness.LoveCity said:This would be a mistake. I don't want to believe it but as has been said quite a lot, Goal have some decent scoops nowadays (Soriano, Txiki, etc.). You can't just sell off our only active academy graduate when he is a fantastic player in peak form and represents our youth system as a whole. Plus homegrown and club trained players are very important these days in the PL and CL squad rules.

Manchester City will demand at least £15 million from clubs hoping to sign Micah Richards this summer, Goal.com understands.
The 24-year-old has indicated to City officials that he may look elsewhere at the end of the season, with Pablo Zabaleta's form and a succession of injuries having hampered his progress under Roberto Mancini.
The City boss would be open to allowing Richards a move away this summer after failing to receive an offer for him in January, despite interest from AC Milan, and would look to accrue between £15m and £20m for his services.
Richards made his first appearance for the Premier League champions since October, having recovered from knee surgery, on Wednesday against Wigan but Mancini was critical of the defender's performance, which lasted 83 minutes.
"I think that he needs to work a lot," the Italian asserted. "I didn't like it [the performance]. I am happy because he comes back to play but I thought that he was in better form."
Richards's long-term absence has seen Zabaleta shine at right back for the champions this season and the England international knows that he may have to move in order to secure consistent first-team opportunities.
Speaking following his return against Roberto Martinez's side, Richards voiced his frustration over being out of first-team contention for so long.
"Five-and-a-half, six months - it is quite frustrating to be out so long," he admitted. "When I came back I was playing really well.
"Now Zaba has been class this season. It is going to be hard to get back in but you know what football is like, one minute you are in and the next you are out. When I am in I am going to have to take my chance."
Arsenal and Liverpool are reported to be monitoring Richards's progress ahead of the summer transfer window but City would rather sell to a non-Premier League club.
Interesting picks but not 100% sure on Jovetic, perhaps Isco as he is more on the creative side, Jovetic is more striker than AM/Winger, at least that is what i think. Also I would pick Kondogbia/Paulinho/Fernandinho over Obiang, although I really don't know too much about Obiang. Also, aint 17 million a bit much for what will essentially be a back up CB? For CB situation, I'm more happy with trying to keep Kolo and Lescott on lower wages than go looking for others, good CB's ain't always easy to come by.greasedupdeafguy said:ThisNoahCity said:Need to sign a CM!ethan23 said:I hope we keep the majority of the Squad

Benat seems the most likely at the moment as his contract is running out, 10-15 mill would be a fair fee. Seems we're also looking to buy an athletic midfielder like Obiang or Kondogbia.
Cavani - Striker
Jovetic - AM/Winger
Obiang- CM
Benat - DLP
Papadopoulos -CB
Versatile defender to replace Kolarov. Zuniga apparently linked today, possibly Byram if he can play LB.
Omar Abdulrahman - Low risk, good for Marketing and has great potential
That would probably complete our squad for the next three or four years. If Dzeko, Kolarov, Lescott, Sinclair, Maicon and Boyata are sold the Net Spend wont be that great.
