January transfer/its quiet Thread

[Rammyblues]

I would like to take them one at a time. We have two foreign spots available and for me Sanchez will occupy one and we need a left back. The rest of the team can wait till summer IMO

Interesting thread. I'm not doing much scouting myself so thanks to all for some input.

Whatever will happen to the squad: as long as Pep is here,
I have a very good feeling that he and his philosophy is able to attract all those top players we dream to see in sky blue.
That again will attract more top players...

I would love to see something like this

January
LB- Ghoulam for £12m
Attacker- Sanchez £25m

Summer
DM- Milinkovic-Savic £60m
CB-Skrinier £40m


Outgoings
Mangala- £7m
Yaya- Free agent to NYCFC
Delph- £15m

Extensions
Fernandinho- one more year

Gross Spend: £137m
Net Spend: £115m

Other options for DM: Fabinho, Jorginho, Diawara

CB options: Koulibaly, Van Dijk

Weigl for me is not an option yet. Many cite pace but what he really lacks is the physicality needed for the PL. Let him grow and develop and we can consider him again when Fernandinho leaves.

We do this business and we’ll have an amazing squad for years and finally we’ll be in a postion where we’ll only need to add a player or two maximum each summer.

We need to focus on CB, LB but more importantly DM we are depending on Fernandinho to stay injury free lately and Yaya will be gone soon, Gundogan is not dependable. I would like someone german, young and that fits Pep system

If we sell Delph and replace him with a foreign player will we not be over our quota of foreign players?

If we sell Delph and replace him with a foreign player will we not be over our quota of foreign players?

You might be right. It will be tough then because we really need to strengthen in these 4 key positions and I don’t see any homegrown player good enough for us in those positions bar Rose who would cost £50m. Maybe Bertrand but he would also cost a lot.

Sell Bravo and have Gunn as our backup?

Easier said than done,convincing a very highly rated,much sought after,and incredibly ambitious,young keeper to sit on our bench for 90% of the season will be a very difficult ask.
