We've got enough....

If we don't sign Ndombele this summer I really hope we take a serious look at him next summer, as the long term Fernandinho successor.

Surely if we buy someone this summer he will be intended as the long term Fernandinho successor, hopefully with Gomes coming through as well.

To be fair, Johnny Evans is quite funny. He makes me laugh, anyway.

No this summer we were buying Toure's replacement. Thats why we were going for a very different style of midfielder to Fern, next summer we will need to replace Fern himself and thus will probably target someone who is more dynamic and less of a pass master.

No players really compatible to Toure, in his pomp, but N’Zonzi strikes me as being the only player who seems as unflappable when receiving the ball under pressure. Age, however, is not on his side.

Toures role last season was as Fernandinho's back up when we were despetate, that's what we are replacing Fernandinho's back up and eventual replacement. We aren't replacing the Toure of old there isn't a place for that type of player.

On yesterdays showing we have enough to retain the Champions mantle barring serious run of injuries to key players e,g Fern ,KDB,Kun... We do not have quite enough imo to take the Champions Cup . We are close and one marquee player (striker or DM ) could push us over the line.
