IF Yaya was to go

[birchwoodgingerste]

Fernando and Sanchez. Fernando would allow Fernandinho to play further upfield in a more advanced role. Sanchez adds a direct attacking option and some much needed pace. He could also play Aguero's role when he's injured. Nasri or Silva would take over Yaya's playmaking role and start attacks, with either Sanchez, Nasri/Silva or Navas on either side, with a striker up front.

Although I've heard Sanchez has been signed by Liverpool. If Fernando is that good of a DM, maybe a bid for James Rodriguez? Less of a physical presence but can become just as good of a goal threat, gets a good amount of assists, young, can play on either wing, attacking midfield, wide midfield etc. Young and will only get better, think he'll be the Iniesta level in the future.

you think sanchez has signed for liverpool pmsl twitter bullcrap again?

If Pogba and Vidal are Unavailable (which they are under our financial constraints), then we should look for a deep lying playmaker/regista, as that's what we'd miss most with Yaya.

Miralem Pjanic
Luka Modric
Koke
Asier Illaramendi
Thiago

Pjanic will cost 50+ million. Not joking look at Roma's hesitation for Benatia.

Modric is most definately unavailable.

Koke would be great but will cost 50 million too (48 million release clause in his last contract). Also, he wants to stay at Athletico and just signed a new contract (reported) today

Thiago - Bayern. Doubt they will sell him after 1 year. Also, better get Kroos if we are after Bayern's players as he would be able to imitate Yaya's passing better.

Asier Illaramendi - not proven enough, and at Madrid

Honestly, if he ends up at PSG, the only real signing we can make is demand Cabaye in return. He can be the DLP/regista

 

[cassyscooterboys]

If yaya leaves and with the addition of fernando I personally would play nasri in front of the two ferns and buy a right sided player in the ilk of reus/Lucas Mora/Sanchez.with yayas fee we should be able to afford one of these and keep the side/ffp balanced

 

[Mancini Manus Domini]

Cabaye please. We'll need more than just Fernando and Fernandinho in the center. What if one them gets injured?

Sanchez as well would give us another line of attack to make up for losing Yaya.

 

[richards30]

Missed a trick not swapping yaya for fabregas imo.

 

[Gundogan's Moustache]

William Carvhallo? Or has he been signed by someone else ?

 

[LoveCity]

Cabaye, seriously??? Some people underestimate the level of our team and the quality we'll need to replace Yaya. Cabaye isn't even a starter for PSG and not that great. PSG bought him as a squad player/option and Verratti is already better.

I would just call PSG's bluff and ask for a straight swap with Thiago Silva.......sorted
