Jude Bellingham

Cancelo is the player you describe though.

Cancelo's crosses weren't great unless it was a Trivela and he couldn't defend

Que? Cancelo isn’t an overlapping left back, he’s right footed for a start. Pretty obvious we are all talking about a left footed left back.

I'm not sure that we need Gvardiol especially with the form of Ake. I'd take an overlapping leftback instead, who can put crosses in.
We don't have that player at the moment and he would be perfect in that team.

I'm still in the "do whatever we can to keep Bernie" corner too.

I wouldn't, it's no coincidence that Grealish has excelled with no Cancelo in the team. He's had more space to operate in.

I'll take a left back the exact same as Ake, just more natural in that position.

except his attitude and effect on the dressing room is at the very least, questionable.

 

[simon23]

I sincerely hope Bernardo stays

Me to.

Think I read on here that if Barca cant afford him PSG might come in for him however - that would be a kick in the teeth as that is truly a one horse league and he is far too good a plyer still in the prime of his career to go on what is basically a sabatical for the best years of his career

I'm loving what Grealish is bringing to the team, the penny dropped for him and he has been brilliant the last month or so.

I'm not dropping Ake either, who has been brilliant all season.

I'm going off what Pep said a few weeks ago about not having a player who can go up and down the wing and put a cross in.
Gomez could be that player and if he can make that leap next season then great, if not we need to find a player who can.

That type of player and Bellingham are all this squad need to be complete imo.

 

[samuelyeboah]

overlapping is overrated. gimme a quick solid defender who's good on the ball.

If you look at the potential sales from the Academy alone, Harwood-Bellis, Doyle, McAtee, Esbrand, Steffen, Couto etc, we could easily get £60 million there without potential first team outgoings of Cancelo and Silva.

In the current market, those ‘academy’ players are pushing more toward the £100m mark, especially when comparing to last season; bellis, Doyle and Mcatee should fetch upwards of 70 on their own….Mcatee is one of the stand out players in the championship, would imagine 30+ with a buy back option!

When you consider we’re talking about paying €40mill on Viega, Mactee could easily take a squad place next season

 

[Kompany Car]

Yep but silva might stay and we ain’t getting anything for Cancelo no one will pay the 60m we would want! Even if we knocked the fee down to 40m with his wages he be hard to shift

Considering at the end of the season he has been with us for 3 yrs and his price was €65m anything more than €26m would be seen as a profit on the books.
