Realistic starting 11 and squad for next season

[jimharri]

If we get the players we are linked with this summer where does that leave us in comparison domestically and in Europe?

Domestically? Top 4, if we're lucky. Europe? We may scrape into the knockout stages of the CL.

Although highly unlikely, anyone else thought about using Sterling in a deal to get Sanchez? I don't see Sterling being good enough to get in this side as it is shaping up.

If we were to buy Sanchez, Walker, Mendy & a foreign CB, what would the CL squad be?

Ederson
Bravo
Gunn

Walker
Kompany
+1 CB
Stones
Otamendi
Mendy
Kolarov

Fernandhino (also RB cover)
Yaya
Delph (?)
Gundogan
KDB
B Silva
D Silva

Sterling
Sanchez
Aguero
Jesus
Sane

Have I missed anyone? No room for another DM?

I don't know if we'll sign a new DM or not, so for now I'll have Yaya in there. This team would be insane. Walker and Mendy give the width, so that Bernardo can get involved centrally, assisting Sanchez and Jesus.

.................Jesus................
Sanchez..................Bernardo

..........Silva.....De Bruyne.......
.................Yaya.................

Mendy........................Walker
.........Van Dijk...Kompany.......

................Ederson..............

Aguero???

 

[Gabriel]

Aguero???

In fairness, he did state that the team was 'insane'. :-)

I have, but means need another Home grown player. And Sterling wouldn't accept a pay cut to go them. It would also mean he's not ambitious

Aguero???

Get over it. No matter what 11 are on the field, we'll have 6 amazing players on the bench and Bravo.

Even Pep has shown he rates Jesus enough to bench Aguero. It's hardly ridiculous.

I'm sorry but our best 11 will have aguero in it...
