Pogba Alternatives?

I'd go for Naingolan could add a lot to our team.

I think he would be a better signing right now, as balance for City's squad, than Pogba. We are signing future worldy potential with Pogba rather than signing the most effective player for the current team right now imo. Naingollan would be a great signing in addition to Pogba anyhow imo. Naingollan & Delph would have made City a much more viable competitive team v Real Madrid, than Yaya & Pogba together would. They would nullify a lot of Real's play. Then one of Yaya (or Pogba if he was a City player), plays instead of Nasri & suddenly we have a really powerful midfield & they now have to worry about our attackers, rather than us just worrying about theirs running through huge holes.

Silva, Sterling, Iheanacho infront of those 3 is a much more viable team.
 
Koke. Nobody else. I would even go on to say that he should have been our No.1 target for the CM role.
He's never play in a team that keeps possession like we do, Or plays high up the pitch than we do. He has no real pace and there's probably a reason other top sides haven't gone in for him neither.

Good player, in a side that sits deep and doesn't give too much away, but not a great player.

Is put Modric Yaya Pogba Veratti and Gundogen(certainly before the big injury) all ahead of him.
 
Sissoko from the barcodes for me'
No brainer really - ah I know what's coming next!
He's fairly inconsistent playing for Newcastle. He's a Spurs/Southampton/Liverpool/Europa Lg standard player.
 
For me Witsel looks a bit slow and clumsy, seems to hold on to the ball a little bit and gives the ball away too much for me, I see 2 who would fit in perfectly in Niangollan and Verrati although I don't see Psg selling to us unless it's mad money.
 
playing Chelsea the 2nd match of the season one would have thought we would have tried to get all of our targets ASAP, now with absences/injuries think we need to get things wrapped up by the end of next week.

Ideally Koke but signing him will probably be as hard as signing pogba. Barkley could be a gamble worth taking. Not signing anyone isn't worth thinking about considering how bad our centre midfield was last year, Delph getting injured is typical city
