If we offer £45 million the deal gets done but they don’t need to sell so they can sit on the deal . We are waiting to see what happens with ake before we commit I think .

If you advance the fullbacks, most likely one of the 8's will have to drop to be an extra holding midfielder along with Rodri to protect against counters. Then it becomes a 4-2-3-1.I doubt he’ll play 4-2-3-1 much apart from the biggest games and even then Bernardo/Phillips will be a hybrid 6/8, switching pendent on where the ball is and how we need to beat the press.
He will, at times play 2 up front too, which is where I’d see more advanced fullbacks coming in.

Both, yeah. If just left back, Walker’s pace allowed us to have a back 3 with Rodri screening it.If you advance the fullbacks, most likely one of the 8's will have to drop to be an extra holding midfielder along with Rodri to protect against counters. Then it becomes a 4-2-3-1.
We struggle with that formation when Walker isn’t playing.
I hope this deal gets done soon, a natural lb who is strong both offensively and defensively. It seems to have gone a bit quiet in terms of the links to other potential lb targets eg Ait Nouri and Raum which hopefully is a positive sign.
It will take some time because we don't know what will happen with Ake. IMO he will stay because we will not find a replacement on a reasonable price. If Cucurella would join, I can't see a place for Zinchenko to be honest.

What's been with the influx of absolute moaning cunts appearing out of the woodwork left right and centre over the past couple of months?
Bloody loads of them.
