Summer Transfers

[RayCTID]

The window for Bonucci was last summer - can't see us going for him now. We could offer him a big uplift in wages last year but I think he's now got himself a good deal at Juve.

I agree the best opportunity has probably gone with Bonnuci but we could do with an experienced defender.

Lukaku has just rejected a contract offer from Everton. Should we be in for him? He has the added benefit of being young and homegrown.

No, hed only ever be a plan b, and he's not going to go anywhere he's not first choice. We need somebody more versatile.

Wondering if we'll end up going in for another electric winger. As we've seen this season our form really dips when either Sterling or Sane can't make the 11, and our squad doesn't really have alternatives who play in their style beyond Jesus. With Navas almost certainly leaving I could see us going in for another winger just to cover injuries/ form loss.

This is need in my opinion. Someone like Douglas Costa or Kingley Coman. Or maybe even Nathan Redmond?

No, no, he said electric winger, not erratic winger.

I agree with this. I do believe though that our first priority will be to get our defence sorted out (at least I hope so), so I would think we will see a new LB, RB and CB before we sign a replacement for Navas.

douglas costa would be a great signing imo

We have Moreno, Zinchenko, Roberts plus a bunch of talented academy kids who could all play wide, or wide striker, as can Gabriel Jesus & we have another scoring cf in Unal, to cover in the centre if/when Jesus was used wide.

Although Moreno & Zinchenko aren't playing much at the moment, they have absolute bucketloads of ability & Moreno is seriously quick. I think both would have played more games here, under Pep, than they have on loan.

Depends how many non 'homegrown' spaces are made in the squad with sales.
