Players who might improve us

[Gaz (FMwkdsoul)]

Would take either Locatelli or Zubimendi as Phillips replacement

Locatelli rumoured to be going for €20m. silly price. flip em laporte in a swap. they love that shit

 

[TB369]

Only 25 as well, so we would get a good few years out of him too.

20m euros for Locatelli?!

 

[SalfordGrimble]

I think we could get Morgan Gibbs-White for a similar price to Paqueta. Homegrown and a higher ceiling for me.

 

[Delphinho]

I know we don’t really use fullbacks, but Rico Henry has been sensational against Tottenham in the first half

 

[Sir Joe Aguero]

Really don’t know why we didn’t go for Maddison at that price. About as consistent an attacking midfielder as you get over the past 5 years.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Isak continues to impress at Newcastle.

 

[FatedBlue77]

As great as Walker signing a new contract is, he’s not gonna be around forever so I think we should get a young replacement in who can shadow Walker to then take up the mantle as our future RB.

One guy that I think really fits the bill and is as close to Walker stylistically is Ivan fresneda.

I think you're completely right, but I think that will be a priority next summer rather than this time.

I would be fine with if it were not for the fact that Ivan fresneda has a good chance of being snapped up by a club this window. A profile like Walker is very difficult to find and fresneda would be the closest so I think we should take the chance and get him. Who knows? We might once Laporte and Cancelo leave.

We can shift Akanji as the Central CB rotation with Dias, which is the position he’s been playing recently anyways and get fresneda in as rotation for Walker.

So like:

RB: Walker/Fresneda

CB: Dias/Stones/Akanji/Ake/Gvardiol

LB: Ake/Gvardiol

We would be set for the present and future and have enough depth to not worry about our back line again.
