Peps Targets

[aguerooo93]

Out: Yaya (32), Demichelis (35), Bony (27), Clichy/Kolarov (30) and Fernando/Delph

In: Neymar (24), Gundogan (25), Stones (20), Gaya (20)

Hopefully Guardiola will find room for Denayer too

If he sells the two of Toure and Fernando he will buy two central midfielders. Denayer will be in for Martin and i think we wont buy another Cb.

Did improve Boateng who was similar.

God no. Boateng is nothing like Mangala. They are almost mirror opposites. Boateng is soft, Mangala is hard. Boateng is confident on the ball Mangala is anything but. Mangala us high energy, Boateng is low energy. If you had a mix of Boateng and Mangala's strengths, you might have the best defender in the world.

Stones could play in that defensive midfield role, we'd also have Gundogan, Fernandinho, Delph and Bersant Celina who should be promoted from the academy. Might also play a 3-6-1 so having 5 CBs for three central defensive spots makes sense.

Would be an amazing signing, if its under lets say 40m. Could fill the squad instead of Bony or Navas. Very energetic player.

Yaya and Otamendi will be the first two big casualties imo. MDM to move back home. Then a refresh of the fullbacks. Fernando has done his job and doesn't deserve to be sold. Can only see him being in trouble if Pep decides to convert the likes of Zab or Otamendi into a holding midfielder.

Sorry mate, I was tired when I read that. Otamendi in my opinion is going no where this summer. He is our best CB.

Our best cb is a little overkill, its VK, but hes staying. Him vk mangala and denayer is an amazing setup

I like the he young kid 'name escapes me now' who is in the eds. Can play CB or DM.

No worries. All about opinions. I just don't think Pep will be too pleased with his erratic at best positioning and at 28 i can't see him changing, it's not a case of him making mistakes like Mangala, it seems ingrained into him. Maybe shipping him out after 1 season is a bit much but i can't see him being a pep favourite, I see Mangala and Kompany as first choice with Denayer hopefully pushing them both for a starting spot.
