It's Quiet - a new dawn

Pretty much, he's bigger and faster, a much better defender. Attack wise he's not as good as Kolarov at his best but I always felt we didn't see kolarovs best all that often post-Mancini.

Personal opinion was that Kolarov's best season was Pelles first but he has been pretty mercurial most of his time here to be honest, when things go well he has looked good on a number of occasions but when things have been poor...................

Thanks gents.

Fucking hell, can't we give him away for free? No matter his renaissance in the early part of this season lets fuck him off and keep Otamendi.

well he's done much better this year than last and teams wanted him last summer, so I'd say we could if Pep wanted to.

Plus, surely we can find a buyer for AK this summer. We wouldn't expect much of a fee due to his service and only 12 months left on deal, token couple of mil and I'm sure he'd leap at chance of getting a 3/4 year deal back in Italy

Think we saw last summer how difficult it is to sell players going into the last year of their contract we ended up keeping all of them. Wages are the biggest issue, but that would be the ideal but still think it would leave us needing one player to cover left back and centre back, like Kolasinac.

So we've spent about £145 on Walker, Sandro, and Sanchez. £60 minimum left to sort out the midfield and the rest is a bonus as far as I'm concerned.

More like 160 with outgoings. Call it 230 if Aguero goes.

Ox has looked very good at wing back is he out of contract this summer or next? If he's available this summer then he'd be a better option than extending Navas.

He's in that category where he's not good enough to start but too good just to waste away on the bench somewhere. Would be a shame to see him sat on our bench every week.

I've said for a couple of years we'd have done a good bit of business if we'd have brought him in at the same time as Sterling. He seemed to have stalled a bit last season (just like Sterling did last year too in many eyes) but has picked back up in the last few weeks.
