It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

He’s the only one that may happen, think summer is more likely though.

True but I honestly hope it happens this window. I didn't think he should have renewed as his form was already dropping prior to that point. His body isn't matching it's previous ability and his head doesn't realise that. Plus his piss poor decision making & awareness. Other than Casemiro & Fabinho, I can't recall such a drastic drop off as Walker's. He's done enough to just go off to Saudi for an easy payday

It's easy for him when he has a destroyer rampaging through the midfield and an Italian no how of a player! In our side he would be lost!

Hmmm I don't agree with that. He does benefit from Joelinton & Tonali, but him & Kova would be a good double pivot. Him and Gundo would also be better than quite a few midfield options we've had. In fairness to Gundo, his weaknesses have been exacerbated by who he has been paired with - stick him alongside someone athletic, good at duels etc and he can just dictate play.

We won't find out but at moment we have no midfield Bruno and Silva Kovacic would be better but it's Joelinton who sees the danger

Pity Wharton had such a setback on the injury, his profile is very similar to Tonali in the 6, think he'd have been perfect for the rebuild 6/8 we are looking for. (to go with a Bruno/Ederson etc)

Yeah I agree. Joelinton's reinvention has been tremendous - he's an all action midfielder, great defensively and maintains that instinct in the box. However, I think Bruno would have been one of those players that mitigates the weaknesses of the midfielders we have while accentuating their strengths. Two 6/8s where one is dynamic and can tackle is better than none. Plus he'd be good alongside Rodri. It's moot anyway as it won't be happening
 
Baleba did really well again. Sadly don’t see him going for under £80m or so. They’ll get a similar fee in the end to what they got for Caicedo knowing them.
