De Bruyne?

[Lankers]

When we sign all three main targets we would have Silva, De Bruyne and Sterling as the attacking trio behind the striker, perhaps. I'd personally want Silva to stay on the left, KDB in the middle and Sterling on the right. Even though part of me wants to keep Silva in the middle, I'd rather have KDB play there so as to get him really really involved at the center of attack and get him to replicate his last seasons form. Hopefully, he will bag a record number of assists whilst scoring an impressive number of goals too.

I agree, I think Silva would be more effective on the left than KDB initially, perhaps give them both a free role to interchange with one another

Maybe I'm just getting too ambitious but I think Sterling is better when he plays out left (only see him play out left a few times to be fair), and we can put silva on the right so we have inverted wingers with KDB controlling the center (he's bigger than both and more physical to handle cdms better IMO).

Maybe I'm getting giddy here but if we do get all 3 targets ,then baring injuries suspensions I honestly belive the league will be won at a canter
Aswell as fairing a lot lot better in champsleague

I admire your confidence.

It would give us fantastic options, but we still have to work out a way of getting the ball back, which was one of our biggest weaknesses against top clubs last season, which may mean leaving out one of DeBruyne, Silva or Sterling & rotating them, to balance the team.

As much as I love him and his ability, we can't keep leaving it to Silva to create 90% of our play, some games last year he dropped off and so having Sterling, KDB and a fit and focussed Nasri can only improve that aspect of our game and give Silva a chance to rest more often

Great point. Delphi? ;-)

you may well be right but i think you are forgetting we still have pellers in charge. sterling will accommodated somewhere due to his price tag, he'll rotate the fuck ouf the 11 and no **** will know their role.

You don't spend possibilly £160M on rotational players , Pogba , Sterling and De Bruyne will be almost guranteed starters every game apart from when we go with a 3 man midfield of Yaya , Fernandinho and Pogba either Sterling or De Bruyne will be on the bench
