Isco

Chelsea with Sanchez and Isco potentially hmm me no like that!

Where would he play at Chelsea? I highly doubt Conte would trust him at CM, and they've got excellent attacking options at the moment.

Not sure mate, I think he can easy play CM just don't fancy seeing him there if he's leaving I would love him here.

Sanchez, Hazard, Pedro, Isco, Kante, Fabregas, Willian. That is looking a bot too talented of an attacking 6 for my palette. :(

I think he would prefer City in regards to style of play first of all.

We'll be freeing up so much money in wages with all the contracts expiring. Give the man what he wants!!

So underrated. Amazing dribbling, great passing, and has an eye for goal.

I hope so. If prefer him here too.

I think Isco signing is wishful thinking. As much as I want him here, we have 3 WC players for 2 positions already in Gundo, Silva and KDB. The only reason we have struggled this season is because Gundo was injured for the season, which is unlikely to happen next year too. Isco isn't going to come here if he isn't a starter, so the only way I see this working is if Gundo plays as the DM.

That is what needs to happen. 4 players for 3 positions with Dihno as a specialist sub and Garcia as emergency and cup DM. Thays our 6 midfielders for 3 positions with 4 rotating starters, 1 defensive specialist and one youth/cups backup.

Balague, yes i know, saying we have no interest in him anymore. I'll leave you to make your own minds up on that one.

Seems like his future contract will be exorbitant in terms of wages, and we are not going to hire such players. And rightly so.
Though the problem still stands: we're in a desperate need of a pressing-resistant No8, who could it be? Can't see any obvious candidatures of the same quality.
Verratti? We can only dream.
Bernardo Silva? Would be difficult to get him, besides he needs month or years of tactical polishing/defensive training to get to Isco's level.
Internal resources? Foden/Diaz are too young.
Who else? Maybe some widely unknown talent from South America?

I don't actually think Balague is as bad as is made out. If he isn't coming to us then hopefully he goes to a Milan club.

If he leaves Madrid and it's not to come here I think I'll die a little inside! He was born to play for us and now is the perfect time to make it happen!
