Who now then?...

Just get a feeling of deja vu after the previous title wins regarding transfers...
Thats my worry... have a feeling we are going to become complacent thinking we dont need to improve etc its gona be another long hard season and a defensive midfielder is a must
Wow, it's like nobody has mentioned that one thousand times already! I will be the the 1,000th person to respond with another, "Hey nimwit, we've signed Riyad Mahrez for a club record fee!"

And here is a video for you!

Oh my mistake Is he a defensive midfielder? No! But hey lets sign another attacker to go with Kun,GJ,Sterling,Sane,Bernardo.. we only have one defensive midfielder and hes getting very tired
 
Gundogan can fill in at DM if need be. Xabi used to do it for Pep and Gundo is no less mobile and no worse at tackling. Xabi has done some absolute hatchet jobs over the years, being a top quality tackler is not the highest priority for a pep number 6.

That being said, I would like to see us sign another midfielder, whether it be a long term option like Wiegl/Kovacic or a shorter-term elite player like Rakitic or Vidal to help us make a tilt at the champs league while also retaining the league.

I'm interested to see how we use Riyad actually. Will he mainly play on the right and be competition for Sterling with Bernardo spending more time in the middle?

Will Riyad play a role in the middle?

False 9?

Or even on the left as competition for Sane or with Sane spending some time playing more centrally


Maybe all of he above.

Just very interested to see how he'll be utilised in a way that will improve the overall mix of the team.

I'm glad you have recovered from the coma,you'll be fucking buzzing when you find out how last season panned out.
 
Anyone else think Stones could be transformed to a DM, and we buy Maguire? Stones is brilliant on the ball, good passer, he`s intelligent, has decent pace and is a great tackler. His only shortcoming IMO, is his marking and concentration at times, and I don`t think that would be exposed to an equal extent, as if he was playing CB
Not really. He's passing and confidence in the ball is decent from the CB position, it wouldn't be adequate If he moved up.
