It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

You forgot Ruben ffs!
So I did. Which means we have
2 good CBs
Rodri Foden in the middle
A front 3 that may not be good enough. And a utility player.
So at the very least we need a RB, LB, AM, 2 goalkeepers, CM back up, support striker, another wide player.
 
At the start of 2026/7 I imagine that that the following will all have left the club.
Ederson, Ortega, Carson, Walker, Stones, Akanji, Ake, de Bruyne, Gundoghan, Bernardo, Kovacic, Grealish, Nuñes, McAtee and Phillips.

The only current players who make the cut are
Lewis, Foden, Gvardiol, Rodri, Savinho, Doku and Haaland.

Frankly it's frightening on two fronts. Firstly how the hell do we bed in over 10 players in the next year and a half. And secondly all these players know they're on borrowed time which will affect their performance.
No guarantee Haaland will be here if we don’t guarantee him a top class creator.
 
Kerkez
Branthwaite / Guehi
Baleba / Zubimendi
Cunha / Kudus
Delap

My personal transfer list. Would be happy with any of these in Jan or the summer.

Probably impossible but Dumfries, Barella, Wirtz, Tchouameni, are players at the level we want too.
 
That just adds to the serious situation we now find ourselves in. How the hell did we let this happen?
In terms of the rest of the squad I agree it's horrendous, but in terms of replacing KDB we were always going to have this problem. If the club don’t get Wirtz or Musiala we’re going to have to look at inferior players. Whether they inspire Haaland I don’t know, we can see how little he’s getting and that’s with KDB there, albeit an aging one.
