Very possible mate in fairness. I just don’t see us being in any race for Rice, especially if we are as reported trying the sign Gundogan to a contract extension? De Bruyne, hopefully Bernardo isn’t going anywhere, Foden, Grealish already in situ?

Agree, imo we should bring in an older player around 32 to replace Ferny who wouldn't mind being a squad player.

You don’t replace a squad player with Rice unless you intend to make the current first choice a squad player. Otherwise it upsets the balance/harmony. Rice could not be further from what we need.

I could not agree less.

Once a player however good feels his place is safe the decline in standards has begun.
 
I wouldn't be signing Gundo to a new deal. He's pushing on and has been great, but there should be a Succession strategy in place.
 
Bellingham's current contract runs until 2025 so he'd only likely be "attainable" from Summer 2023. I reckon Dortmund would want £120m for him at that point especially if he makes an impact at the World Cup.

Maybe he takes Gundo's place and he can return to Dortmund as part of any deal in 2023.

Gravenberch makes a lot more sense than Bellingham if it’s not Rice IMO, maybe even an easy deal as we’ll be talking with Raiola already
