Think we are going to spend an unprecedented amount of money this summer. Like £200m plus.

No too Cavani. Our backup striker is Nacho. I don't know what the kid needs to do to show this. I've said it since day One, when Bony leaves, it is a Winger we need not a Striker. We already have 2. Yes Aguero will get injured, and Nacho will fill in without a hitch.

I like this, but I doubt we'll get Sane. Not ready. And I doubt we'd play many games without fullbacks. He did it some at Bayern, but a back 4 is still his base lineup.
 
Joe Hart
Marc-Andre ter Stegen
Angus Gunn

Bacary Sagna
Pablo Maffeo
Vincent Kompany
Nicolas Otamendi
Eliaquim Mangala
Aymeric Laporte
Jason Denayer
Gael Clichy
Angelino

Ilkay Gundogan
Granit Xhaka
Fernandinho
Fabian Delph
Aleix Garcia
Kevin de Bruyne
David Silva
Samir Nasri
Manuel Garcia
James Horsfield

Sergio Aguero
Raheem Sterling
Kelechi Iheanacho
Ousmane Dembele
This is quite likely. And I'll probably be excited with this team.
 
GK: Hart, Caballero, Wright
LB: Clichy, Angelino
RB: Sagna, Denayer, Maffeo
CB: Kompany, Otamendi, Laporte, Mangala
CM: Gundogan, Koke, Fernandinho, Fernando, Delph, Manu Garcia
LW: Sterling, Nasri
CAM: De Bruyne, Silva
RW: Griezmann, Navas
ST: Aguero, Iheanacho, (Griezmann), (Sterling)
I'll be pleased with this too.not to mention, it has great Symetry too. Not as high on Koke as most, but he'd still be an upgrade at CM.
 
Like everyone elses this is probably as much what I want as what I think will actually happen, as obviously it's all rumours at this stage

GK- Hart, Ter Stegen, Gunn/Lawler
DR- Sagna, Cancelo (or another attacking RB who can also fill in at LB), Maffeo
DL- Clichy, Angelino
DC- Kompany, Mangala/Otamendi, Laporte/Stones, Denayer
CM- Gundogan, Pogba, Fernandinho, Fernando, Byrne, Garcia's
AM/W- De Bruyne, Silva, Navas, Sterling, Barker, maybe one more X factor winger
ST- Aguero, Kelechi

Still room in there for another couple of foreign players probably, maybe keeping one or tow maybe signing another striker or attacking midfielder. Who knows
 
----------------Hart-----------
---Denayer---Kompany---Laporte---
----------------Dinho---------------
-------Gundogan--Pogba--------
Sterling------KDB-------Sanchez
--------------Aguero----------
 
I actually like the idea of Dinho moving towards a CB role when his legs have started to give way.

He's one of the last players we should be thinking of selling.

You are 1 player away from buying a completely new squad. Ambitious, but unlikely.
 
For me, add 5

Stones, Laporte, Gundogan, Griezmann, Sanchez.

Yes, I ignored the fullback positions. Fill those internally.

Quality and Competition over quantity.

IN: Laporte, Gundogan, Gaya, Sebastian Jung, Pogba, Steegen. £210m
OUT: Bony, Yaya, Delph, kolarov, Zab, Mangala, Caballero, Wright, Demi, Zucilini - £50m

Took out Steegen coz apparently he is staying at Barca. Leaving me with 5.

I'll take your team too. Albeit I'll remove Jung and add an inside forward. Perhaps Griezmann or Sanchez.
 
Whoever joins or leaves, I just hope we've seen the last of opposing teams waltzing through our midfield with ease. I think it's fairly obvious that lack of commitment won't be tolerated so it'll all be down to skill and vision. Some of our squad just don't have it.

We will get more than 50m for those players listed ....West Ham and Swansea are already battling for Bony for close to 20m ....Inter want Yaya and Zabba for a combined 15m, China is an option for Yaya we will get 7m for Kolarov, we should get close to 20m for Mangala and around 7 to 8 for Delph .....Demi will be free, Willy around 2m and Zucilini around the same 2m ....around 75m is my guess ...also Yaya's wages of 1m a month will be saved too
