Summer Transfers

but we dont rotate now though. if sterling and sane are fit they play pretty much every game. same with jesus. we play our best player and best team most games, the only time we've rotated really is cup games. i would much rather have sancho or roberts as back ups.
We don't rotate now because we don't have the talent to rotate. If we did, we would.

To be fair we have navas and nolito lol...
 
We need to go all out for Bonucci hes the one that wins us title and CL easily the best CB in the world dont need to spend fortunes on tons of players , pay whatever Juve ask hes that important
 
Bonnuci would be a fantastic signing. It all depends on how much our new full backs will cost us and his situation at Juventus.
 
Bonucci is worth another couple of years at most. I'd rather go for Van Dijk or Laporte with some fresh legs in the full back positions and start drilling a defence for the next 5/6 seasons.

Bonucci is an okay defender. His talents are being grossly overstated around here. Watched Duval Zapata just rag doll him last week for Udinese's goal. Not to judge him on one abuse, but ... I don't see the allure. He is a 30 year old defender who has played in the slowest top league (Italy) his whole career, and has mostly being a part of a 3 headed CB monster.

Old, not particularly quick, Not particularly strong, has played in a slow league all his career, and has had the luxury of being flanked by 2 other tactically superior defenders in Chiellini and Barzagli.

Sure he is a great longball passer. So kinda like Kolarov. But with better technique and overall footballing pedigree. But defensively he is just okay.

Don't know why so many want him.

Guardiola rates him highly enough for starters. He is a leader, has got good positional sense,very good passing range (which is what are looking for in a defender), a solid tackler, a very good reader of the game, is strong enough and is good in the air. For me he is near enough to VInny you can get. It hasn't been the case in his career but he has sorted out his consistency in his game. The only other negative is what Juventus will want.

That's exactly my thoughts with the type of big money he would cost I would sooner get someone younger that can be part of the defence for the next 5 or 6 years
Young and hungry to win
