I mean you could see Chelsea and feel frustrated but Liverpool have only bought thiago except the young backup. Spurs havnt done much either ti today I think. That said the fullback has a buyback which Madrid will most certainly use if he is decent enough. No one except a desperate Mourinho would do that deal. We have already spent more than Pool, Spurs, Arsenal, everyone except Chelsea I think.
Thiago who has scored 17 goals in 150 games for Bayern over 7 seasons.Well, my point is the CB position has been known since Kompany left. Pool are getting a WC Mid who i would place just a level below KDB / Prime kroos. They don't need to improve their starting XI other than that.
We do.
Apart from Chelsea, will all due respect to them, rhe others u mentioned will mainly competing for top 4, not the title.

I'm also surprised.I’m surprised we’re not in for Luis, particularly as we appear to have an option on him. He’s way too good for Villa.
Fernandinho might have adapted his game if he'd stayed in midfield. The season at CB has probably done for him as a midfielder. Personally doubt his ability to adapt his game because I always saw him as a risk taker hence the tactical foul label.I want both of those tbh, but it looks like it'll be a cb, for now, which would be a big bonus.
You would imagine Fern would have the brains to adapt his game to ageing legs though. Plenty of others have done so. He has played out of position for a season now so should now be used to a different way of thinking.

If we had a new Ferdinando I don't think we'd need a new CB. But we'll be lucky to find one. I think we'll go to a more conventional formation now with 2 players doing the job that Fernandinho did and with less risk of those 2 players being caught forward of the ball. If Pep doesn't adapt to losing Fernandinho we'll suffer
The good news is it gives another subject for people to moan about in hereI wish we'd stop fannying about sending players on loan to Girona. It seems to do fuck all for their development and it's not exactly turned them into a top club.
Although I guess it's business as usual and helps to line the right people's pockets.
Douglas Luiz and Maffeo beg to differ. Thats over 20m made just with those two.I wish we'd stop fannying about sending players on loan to Girona. It seems to do fuck all for their development and it's not exactly turned them into a top club.
