Toni Kroos

It did seem a bit unrealistic to prise Kroos from the new European Champions where, under Zidane, he seems more settled. If true that Kroos is unlikely to move and we're also giving up on Pogba then we seem a bit light in midfield and really do need a top world class CM (other than Gundogan). Perhaps we need to move on to players like Veratti, Pjanic and Koke although they may be just as hard to prise away.

Know who'd be easy to pry away? James and Isco.

Guardiola assures Fernando of Man City future - but will not move for Kroos or Wilshere - MEN

Assured him that his future here is bleak.

I'll put money on him being gone before the window closes to the first person who thinks otherwise.

Wouldn't be so sure. I think we will at least start the season with one extra central midfielder than we ended with. Yaya looks a gonner so if Fernando goes we need two more. Considering we need new players all over the show I think it's unlikely we will sign 3 in one window. He had a very good season this year and there may be more to come. Plus he's cheap and doesn't moan at being second fiddle. Could be a very handy squad player

Curious as to what has changed so much. Unless we have all just been guessing the wrong targets all along.

Pep will get more from the existing players, of course. But we have constantly been assured by ITKs and the media he wants about 6 or 7 players.

So we must trust he knows who he wants and why.

No doubt it will get spun by the press as we wanted all these guys but nobody would chose us ahead of guaranteed CL teams like Real/Barcelona or United who could be in the Johnsons Paint trophy only and Messie and co will crawl there instead of here because of who they are.

The truth will be that Pep knows what he wants and why and these may simply not suit his plan.

Gundogan, Laporte, Aubemeyang, Stones, another technical midfielder and a left back would represent an outrageously good summer, even without Kroos, Pogba, Neymar, or similar. Id be buzzing my tits off. I think that's likely to be a target or two too far but I think it's also the overhaul in age and talent our squad is crying out for.

With Just the first three signings I think our squad would change significantly.
