Lucas Paquetá

Haha, imagine my shock...

Hopefully the PL will follow suit & conclude their investigation meaning we can continue negotiations.

We'd have had a far easier time this season with Paqueta. I wonder if WHU will take Philips, Nunes & £10m in exchange?

We lose out financially, but we get the player we need.

 

[Delphinho]

Exceptional player, no doubt, but I can’t see how he fits in now after getting both Kovacic and Nunes. Pretty sure both will play a lot more next season, quite few of our signings hit the ground running immediately. Most need a season to adjust, and they’re both starting to show glimpses of what they can do

We need another DM and that’s all we need in midfield in my opinion. For DM we’ll have Rodri and presumably someone new in the summer, as b2b midfielders we have Kovacic, Nunes, Bernardo and Rico, and as the more attacking midfielders we have Kev, Foden and Bobb. That’s 9 players for 3 positions. A few of them might play out on the right every once in a while, but then again we’ll most likely see either Neto or Savio joining in the summer. Feels like we shut this door when we signed Nunes

Probably instead of Bernardo, plus we’ll have to start nursing KDB though the season.

We'll sign him and look to offload Nunes.

Even if Bernardo left we’d have
Rodri, new DM
Kovacic, Nunes, Lewis
Kev, Foden, Bobb
for 3 positions. If the DM is Kimmich I could see us playing him and Rodri together in most of the important games only leaving 1 spot for another midfielder. Would make more sense to me to replace Bernardo with a RW. Looks like Pep views Foden more as a midfielder now than he did at the start of the season

It'll be Kova out of the two i reckon IF they look to move one, (unlikely) Saudi and Turkish teams interested.

 

[blueparrot]

We won’t be offloading Nunes anywhere.

 

[Delphinho]

Can’t see that after only 1 season. Nunes has actually had some great performances without ever getting a good run of games and possibility of building form. Kalvin was shite whenever he walked on to the pich

 

[Bluewonder]

We won’t be offloading Nunes anywhere.

Maybe not, but as he was signed when Paqueta became unavailable, and is evidently inferior, I won't we surprised if we try.
