guess next season's squad

Yeeesh! Hope you are wrong. Debryne wide. 4 players who are weaker defensively. I do like Draxler though. Don't like the idea of Dihno as a full time starter. He is getting up in age.
I don't think Draxler is what we need, he's had an alright season for Wolfsburg but Arsenal passed on signing him a couple of years back for a good reason - too inconsistent. He's like a poor man's KDB. Don't think we've been linked (from what I can see) and rightly so.

Draxler improves ball retention. Quick thinking like DeBryune. Not as explosive, bit technically Superior and quite the physical specimen.

That said, Arsenal passes on everyone. They hate paying. Perhaps that's a good thing.
 
Fixed it. :)
Gunn will almost certainly go on loan somewhere, being 3rd choice would do nothing for his development, the only other one I' d change with is Kante for a wide attacking player hopefully Sanchez, to play alongside Aguero and Sterling.
 
Hart, Rulli, Gunn
Sagna/Vrsaliko, Clichy/Angelino
Laporte/Denayer/Mangala/Kompany
Fernandinho, Gundogan, Kante, Thiago Alcantra (plus A Garcia)
Silva, Nasri, De-Bruyne, (plus M Garcia)
Aguero, Iheanacho, Alexis Sanchez, Sterling

How much would that cost? Under 150m, I would think, plus some money from
Navas, Kolarov, Bony, et al

Obviously, someone like Pogba would be on my wishlist, but I don't know how realistic that is, or whether he'd be value for money. I'd feel pretty confident going into the season with this squad...
 
Hart, Rulli,

Vrsaljko, Maffeo
Kompany, Denayer
Otamendi, Stones(or Laporte)
Clichy, Angelino

Gundogan, Fernandinho, Delph, A.garcia,
M.Garcia, Nasri, De Bruyne, Thiago

Sanchez, Sterling, Barker
Aguero, Kelechi
 
Seriously we need to forget Laporte and gundogen , leave them alone at their clubs to regain form n fitness.

Look at this again next summer.
 
Hart, Rulli,

Vrsaljko, Maffeo
Kompany, Denayer
Otamendi, Stones(or Laporte)
Clichy, Angelino

Gundogan, Fernandinho, Delph, A.garcia,
M.Garcia, Nasri, De Bruyne, Thiago

Sanchez, Sterling, Barker
Aguero, Kelechi

Wouldn't mind this but personally I can see us getting both Laporte and Stones, Denayer right back with Vrsaljko and Sane for Sanchez and we'll probably wait till like January till we sign gundogan

Hart
Denayer - Stones - Laporte - Vrsaljko
KDB - Dinho - Nasri
Sane - Kun - Sterling

That team would get an absolute twatting by half the league mate!
 
Wendell is a really good prospect but I can see him going to Spain next.
Loses the ball too much. His tackling style is also annoying. He is always in a hurry to get nowhere. But what I dislike the most about him is his single minded arrogance. Reminds me of a more skillful Kolarov. I know he is young, but he is not my type of player. There are enough young fullbacks with potential, we don't need to get one that lack team chemistry skills. Regardless of how athletic he might be.

Yikes, you are bouncing everyone over thirty bar Komps and Dihno. Interesting.
 
a leader & new captain. Kompany has been absolutely fantastic but is far too injury prone.

Pogba

Alexis Sanchez

A centre half,Laporte

We go from there.
