Gustavo is supposed to be available, better than Garcia/Barry ?
If Barry is to go to Arsenal or Napoli then this would be a good move ?
If any solid offer comes in for Kolarov, then Coentrao is supposed to be available for about 8 million, or maybe Baines, but he'd cost more and is older.
That would be two good younger players on lower wages.
The Pepe link won't go away and would improve the centre of defence, and he has the experience.
A left sided midfielder with pace (a left footed Navas) would be ideal, the icing on the cake and loan/sell Sinclair.
It has appeared to me that Pellegrini has rotated players to give them all equal opportunity for fitness, but I think he has also been checking out where we are weak. The backline against Milan, was pretty poor, and they did capitulate as most fans expected. He must have sorted this at half-time, but I wonder if some players time is now up ?
