Cole in, or maybe maybe we'll get involved in young Shaw's future.
Part ex/sweetner?
That's what I'm thinking.
We originally aimed for Mangala but he turned out to be too expensive. We then go for Benatia, and as Roma is after Kolarov we can make a good deal.
But Kolarov will need to be replaced with a quality full back. Ash Cole is still a very good player, thought he was brilliant in their CL games but would only be a short term solution.
I hope Alex stays though.
