Sam Lee:
Bernardo could stay (duh)
Torres is the Gvardiol-alternative
Walker could still leave
Rice is Gundogans replacement if he leaves.
Me too. And they'll probably go for Rice if that happens. City will probably know this week.So Gundo might stay/might go. Kovacic is cover or a replacement depending.
Bernado might go but waiting on a bid from PSG before he lets the club know.
I actually think we might end up keeping Silva but losing Gundo.
I think it’s smart. If Gundo stays he covers Rodri/Phillips/Gundo. Gundo and Phillips can’t play every game, Rodri can but shouldn’t.Me too. And they'll probably go for Rice if that happens. City will probably know this week.
Ye, Kovacic is a cover/depth player
Guessing that's a midfield cover (Kovacic), a LCB/LB (Gvardiol), a midfielder if Gundogan goes and a winger? Or did i miss anything?At least four new faces.

Phillips still hasn't proven anything remotely close to being behind Rodri properly. He could still stay one year and try, but Rice would fit the role of a 6, if Rodri needs a rest, but he also could work as a 8.I think it’s smart. If Gundo stays he covers Rodri/Phillips/Gundo. Gundo and Phillips can’t play every game, Rodri can but shouldn’t.
If he goes I agree with you Rice is the replacement. Good to see West Ham sticking it to Arsenal and not getting bullied, also may be more than happy to deal with us.
Just what happens with Phillips? I’d be happy to see him stay but another year like the one just gone he has to go. Rodri/Phillips/Rice/Kovacic certainly means the middle is covered.
Me too, no doubt Gundo is the better player but certainly a mini refresh with Rice and Kovacic coming in. Fresh energy, legs and hunger.So Gundo might stay/might go. Kovacic is cover or a replacement depending.
Bernado might go but waiting on a bid from PSG before he lets the club know.
