Coming in & going out this summer
- Thread starter TBooksbluearmy
- Start date
Think Rodwell may go out on loan. Will depend on his preseason I think.
Few others may leave for one reason or another. List includes:
García
Razak
Nasri
Dzeko
Kolo
Kolarov
Maicon
Lescott might leave although, I'd rather keep him but he needs to do what's best for him ahead of the World Cup.
Going off reports, and influenced a little bit by who I'd like, the 'ins' might be:
Kondogbia - ball-winner rather than 'screening' type defensive mid.
Ben Davies - back up to Clichy and still young too. Has a lot of potential.
Marquinhos
Benat - Prefer Banega but Benat ain't pissed or unfit 50% of the time.
Alexis Sanchez/Erik Lamela - I'd like both but that isn't likely. Maybe on the if Tévez were leaving. Appreciate they're not the same type of player.
Cavani - Not 100% sure about the fit but going off everything on here, it sounds like we're definitely interested. Problem will be beating Real Madrid to his signature. Higuaín a nice alternative nonetheless.
Hart/Pantilimon
Zab/Micah Kompany/Marquinhos Nastasic/Lescott Clichy/Davies
Yaya/Benat Barry/Kondogbia
Silva
Sanchez/Milner Cavani/Guidetti Aguero/Tévez
Players not fixed to those positions obviously as Yaya or Benat could play further up, Milner could play inside as could Aguero and Tévez probably wouldn't even play out wide. Would prefer Aguero inside too but think we'll move to 4-3-3 with him on the left. More so an inside forward than a winger.

Joehannes said:Oh, we've been linked with a few young attacking midfielders too (Maher, Williams etc). Could sign one of them for a decent fee too.
It's our biggest need, IMO. United and Chelsea (and the best European teams) have them in droves. We have very few.

If all the players in the departure lounge actually take off we'd have a pretty seismic change to the squad which may well not be manageable. Nevertheless if it happens here's my pick of some replacements bearing in mind Txiki's Basque connection and the need for 8 home grown players and our search for young English/Welsh talent.

Byram------------Richards-----------------Papadopoulos----------Condogbia
-----------------------------------Barry----------------------------------------------

----------------------------Suarez----------Jovetic------------------------
+ 3 from the EDS for Champs League Squad
(It wouldn't surprise me to see Davies the left back from Swansea and Gangsta Morrison arrive too -they would be eligible for the PL only as U21s)

I see the point but it could happen as in the current rotation system. We need at least three top strikers ( if not 4 like United) to compete on all fronts. The 2nd XI is really in part an extension of the 1st XI plus young back-ups.SergioInAddedTime said:Suarez on bench would never happen...George Hannah said:If all the players in the departure lounge actually take off we'd have a pretty seismic change to the squad which may well not be manageable.
