Fair enough but if you ask me, I'd struggle to give you an answer as I love Sandro to bits on the one hand and on the other, I see Fabinho as the perfect candidate available for that role all factors considered. I'll probably go for Mendy + Fabinho though.Paredes and Sandro for me. Would be more than happy with either but looks more and more likely that Fabinho is off the table and with no real links to Paredes I don't really see either happening. Reckon we'll end up with Mendy and Carvalho.
And why are you so sure that Fabinho is not going to happen? Can we say that whatever it was that made Billy, a renowned ITK here, dead sure that Pickford would happen instead of Moraes and yet it didn't happen could happen again. Completely different transfers I know but you get my point, right?
