With Reis and Bah.
No room for all 3 of them

Considering Bah has dropped out of the starting XI lately for 13th placed Nice, who currently has the second worst defense in Ligue 1, I would assume he still has some developing to do before being an option here with us.

every year a damn new CB with Reis and Bah on loan. So we planning with 6 CB next season?

Reis and Bah are long term projects.

I think with Reis we will do what Arsenal did with Saliba and be loaned for at least 2/3 years.

Saliba was bought for big money as an 18 year old. £27m I think. He then had 3 loans at Saint Etienne, Nice and Marseille before going to Arsenal.

Same should be happening with Khusanov in my opinion.

Very rare a CB has less than 100 games in a top European League before going to an established PL/CL team and play regularly.

We’ve moved Akanji on, Ake is likely to leave soon possibly in January and Stones’ contract is in the summer. I think Khusanov, Reis and Guehi would be their replacements. Bah is the one likely to follow a similar path to Saliba or end up as a CFG type signing

Why move O'reilly when he is the best left back in the league and Gvardiol and Dias are as solid a CB partnership as you will find in Europe?

Just because O'reilly was a midfilder in the academy doesn't mean he will make it there in the professional game.

I personally think he has looked a fish out of water whenever he has been deployed in midfield.

Anderson will be fill the spot we need to solidify the midfield.

Agreed. O'Reilly should be out LB for a good while. He just went to Madrid and was great. Been on of our best, most consistent, players all season. No need to move him
 
Akanji on loan and not coming back to play for us, Ake and Stones probably leaving in the summer leaves us light on experienced centre half’s. Also losing Walker, McAtee and Grealish leaves us light on home grown players. Guehi, Anderson and / or Wharton fills some gaps as I think Bernardo and Kova may also be gone this summer. And not convinced as to whether Rodri will even be half the player he was.
With the likes of cherki, Nico x 2, Khusanov, Reis, even Doku and Sav we have some very talented but young players. Need some ready made PL players, think Guehi fits the bill.
 
I will say that if we do get Semenyo and Guehi in january, it will send shockwaves across the league and we will be firm favorites for the title. it's a serious statement.

Depends on the owner. Get something for him in January or he's gone for free in the summer. But if they're around the top 4, keeping him for that champions league money would offset any January fee.

Also depends on the player - he might want the big bag of money at the end of the season

I reckon we have a 20% chance of getting him
