only played under pep for about two weeks in a preseason, 6 years ago, not sure that'll count for much
These are the kind of the deals I can see us do in January. Ones that can be easily done. Only thing is we might want someone with the mentality to be high in confidence to make the mark right away.
Luiz could be a real asset though. Could be that 6/8 hybrid we’ve been crying out for.
Bring him & Bynoe-Gittens home, an instant impactReports suggesting Douglas Luiz wants out at Juve. I wonder if Pep might be interested with Rodri’s injury, Prem proven and his previous with City might help the adaption process into a Pep system.
spot on, most def should be in our shortlist. RB should be one of the priorities in january.I'd have a look at Livramento from Newcastle.
A young right back, good on the ball, pretty quick, defensively looks good. Been impressed with him whenever I've seen him and always thought he would be excellent with the right coaching.
I'd imagine Newcastle wanna hang onto him but if he's pretty sure he's a replacement for Walker, knowing there's no real competition at right back here, he could force a move.
These suggestions get worseTrippier as a short term fix in January and 2 central midfielders.
Agreed, would be my dream RB signing. Will probably target a HG player or two with Walker (and potentially Stones?) leavingI'd have a look at Livramento from Newcastle.

Hmm miles better than Walker and Lewis, is available and can actually cross the ball. Not saying he’s the solution but would surely help.These suggestions get worse
Livramento is excellent go for him, Luiz on a loan is a no brainer. And at the back THB to replace Stones ( think he has had it with his Planter Fasciitis). These players will not cost us a fortune and will be good for the future?I'd have a look at Livramento from Newcastle.

Agree about Livramento as being a viable choice, but he won't come cheap. Newcastle's deal 18 months ago has the potential to rise to £40m. Unless they need to balance the books, they don't need to sell. You're therefore looking upwards of £50m before Newcastle even bother to answer the phone.Livramento is excellent go for him, Luiz on a loan is a no brainer.

He gone well past his sell by date, much worse than Walker on Walker's worst day. Can't believe you think he's better than Rico. Slow as fuck these days but just because he's cheap means nothing. He would add nothing but take up a squad place. There are no positives to this transfer.Hmm miles better than Walker and Lewis, is available and can actually cross the ball.

You want a 34 year old English RB (who was always 2nd to Walker), who has effectively been frozen out at Newcastle, a team who're having a hit and miss season.... to replace a 34 year old English RB (who was always #1), who has effectively been frozen out at us, a team who're having a hit and miss season?Hmm miles better than Walker and Lewis, is available and can actually cross the ball.

I’d bring Callum Doyle back personally. Looks good enough. He is a left-sided defender however.Livramento is excellent go for him, Luiz on a loan is a no brainer.

They'd have to at least answer the phone to know how much they were being offered? 8-)Agree about Livramento as being a viable choice, but he won't come cheap.
