If I was a betting man..which I'm not

I'd say three more out players in plus the goalie

Sane, Stones, Peres & Geronimo

Outside chance of Rodriguez

Thanks again mate....Would be happy with Sane, Stones and Peres but think its clear Pep doesnt trust Mangala or Kompany( to stay fit)

jeez i just don't think that is a great summer window at all if that is it

Ignoring geronimo and Peres who I know nothing about

Gudongan - excellent

Nolito - average

Sane - Unknown

Stones - good and a work in progress

That isn't great to me at all.

Sane is not unknown at all! He is better than sterling right now.

I think we just saw an oppurtunity for bonucci. If we were serious serious we would have been after him all summer, not just a plan b to laporte.

I agree mate...but it does show the the lack of confidence we have in the CB's on the squad....its going to be tough going into the season if we dont fill these needs at CB....everyone will know, including the players that Pep/txiki spent the summer trying to replace them....Lets hope we get Stones done soon!;)

meant unknown how he will adapt or whether he will reach his potential

for me we are hugely lacking cover for Kun and none of the players we have are going to do that except Kelechi and that is a big big ask for such a young kid

a forward line of Sane Kelechi and Nolito is firstly very inexperienced (the young lads especially)
 
Plus there's the other situation regarding Kroos..he is really open to a move but that depends on Real going balls deep for Pogba

Those fucking Old Lady cunts grabbing the headlines again..god I hate Juve (I also follow Torino as my 'foreign' club)

Must be a perspective thing, because a front line of Nolito, Nacho, & Sane being what we face -- in the even that we're decimated by injuries -- seems incredible to me.

Moratta back to Juve to offset Pogba? Plus the Kroos cash. Difficulty in that could be the loss of mark up for the agent.

Wouldn't be too fussed if Pogba stays at Juve. Or goes to Madrid. Mainly I don't want him at the rags and want to laugh when they bid £100m and he doesn't go.

it would take one injury to kun to have that (Kdb playing more in the midfield area)

Sane could be awesome but equally night fail

Nolito - I just don't rate at all and I pray I am wrong on this

Kelechi - good player, lot of learning to do

we don't have another recognised forward other than Kun or kelechi

Will that be enough to win us the title?

Who knows..let's see Pep earn his money

Things havent gone to plan so far during the window...Pep said today that his system depends on the quality of the team/players to fit/grasp that system. You could argue at the moment we still have 3 or 4 players that dont fit that system...Pep is clearly the No1 manager in football for me but a manager is only as good as his squad and I see holes in midfield, LB and CB....

It's hard to speculate on how Pep lines up, but in 9 years he's played almost entirely with one striker. What do you want Nacho doing behind the two world-class strikers when they're fit? Helping out the kit man?

Kelechi did everything we asked of him at every point we asked. We're lucky to have him as a 2nd option. Have a little faith.
