Name some!Champions League certainly helps but i don't think you can say 100% absolutely that elite players won't move to clubs without champions league football. There are plenty examples of where it's happened, including to us.

Not true really, and he might sign he might not nobody knows,but even if it was haven’t we won more trophies, more leagues than anyone else doing it our way ?He won’t sign for us anyway we do same thing every year want the big player of the moment but end up with someone else
For us? Tevez, Yaya Toure, Silva, Dzeko.Name some!
For other teams? I'd say Chelsea haven't had too much issue recruiting players lately. Im not a massive Enzo Fernandez fan myself but he went there off the back of winning the world cup and was highly sought after.

Chelsea throw out mental offers to players who don't have anything better. What choice did Fernandez have, go back to Benfica and earn a pittance each week or bank himself tens of millions and move to Chelsea. Easy choice.For us? Tevez, Yaya Toure, Silva, Dzeko.

I can only assume that this view comes from social media sources speaking about who the club wants to buy because it does not come from the club. As such, it is speculation, while deals are generally done in absolute privacy until announced.He won’t sign for us anyway we do same thing every year want the big player of the moment but end up with someone else
This idea of our constant failure seems completely at odds with our success on field.

My point is there are examples of elite players moving to clubs without champions league football. Including to us. I'm not saying Wirtz is coming to us but I wouldn't write off any signing on the basis we'll be out of the champions league for one season.
Joining a club as well resourced as ours, on good wages and one that is capable of challenging for the Premier league title is an attractive prospect in of itself. Players will forego a season of CL football if the project is enticing enough.

I am not sure if we can point to what we did 15yrs ago as proof it works.My point is there are examples of elite players moving to clubs without champions league football. Including to us.

Some players will, Wirtz probably won't when he doesn't need to.

This opinion is bang on... But will get ignored by most as the way we conduct business isn't entertaining enough for them.I can only assume that this view comes from social media sources speaking about who the club wants to buy because it does not come from the club. As such, it is speculation, while deals are generally done in absolute privacy until announced.

As always we'll operate professionally and bring in the best available. The results on the pitch (not this season of course) speak for themselves.

I'm not sure one way or the other what will happen with this transfer. My gut is it probably wont happen. All I was saying was you can't absolutely write off a transfer on the basis of no CL football. I was asked for examples so I gave them.

Will be on his way to Real, with Alonso, after last night.
Carlo Ancelotti will be out in in the summer and Alonso will want to take Wirtz I would imagine.

I thought he was pretty good for most of the game mate? They all lost the plot when the Arse went 3 up to be honest.

I thought he was poor but he had no help in there with him.I thought he was pretty good for most of the game mate? They all lost the plot when the Arse went 3 up to be honest.
He's excellent, I think it would be KDB-esque transfer in terms of impact on our style of play and his importance to the team.Honestly, is he that good? Been spoke about like prime Messi.
He's sort of like a Foden (playing well) and KDB hybrid.

You'd think something has to give with Real. They can't stack all the world's best youngsters and keep them all happy.So Camavinga may be available then?
