It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

Nkunku would be a brilliant signing the guy can finish

We need a big refresh up front? Obviously if Haaland comes in that’s one part but Nkunku would be a serious upgrade on certainly sterling? We shouldn’t even be offering him a contact let alone £300,000 plus a week?!
 
New goalkeeper needed
Steffen is fine as a backup.

The issue is committing to playing the backups in the domestic cup competitions.

If Pep goes forward using Ederson whenever available, and Steffen isn’t prepared to be benched unless there’s an emergency situation, only then would we need a new keeper. And the above is unlikely.

He’s cost us two times in FA cup semis that to me is not good enough

That’s on Pep for playing him, in the name of squad harmony. I get it, though I also disagree with it.

Strongest possible XI, always, for me. If Ederson’s available, he should play.

But the USA #1 is probably as good as you’ll get for a backup willing to get 6-8 appearances a season.
 
Haaland + Alvarez should be enough upfront. The next priority should be a midfielder to replace Fernandinho and a full-back to replace a certain french left-back. That should be our window. Today showed us that we need more quality depth so we can actually challenge in 4 competitions.

Not sure Alvarez will get many games next season. He's coming from the Brazillian league straight into a Premier League team. That's a big learning curve and step up in competition.

After Haaland we need a Fernandinho replacement. I'd like a more mobile Rodri but Tolmie was saying we won't be bringing in a top class midfielder.

We need a left back and we need a Torres replacement.

Knowing City we'll get Haaland and make Pep put Laporte in midfield.

Alvarez will take the Torres spot. A ST/CM/FB will be the list.
 
Haaland, a CM, a Decent back up LB and a pacey winger if we can find someone daft enough to buy Sterling all needed to refresh the squad.

Nkunku would the perfect replacement for Sterling. Works hard and clinical. Will probably score MORE than 30 goals this season.

But like you say, the biggest problem is finding buyer for Sterling. Who would pay him at least £300k a week?
