I have been one of the few who watched Zuculini for Racing and he can do this job pretty well, his box to box abilities are very good.

He still needs working on but I am sure Pellegrini can coach him into the finished product.

Anyone else think we should go all out for Pogba this summer? Considering Yaya's importance to our style of play, Pogba could be vital for us for many years.

I tell you who would do an outstanding job for us now and we are crying out for him.

Someone who hates losing and could drag others with him by sheer force of personality!

Someone who will shout and sceam were others stand silent. Yes he'll get bookings and even red cards but he'll never go missing where others regularly hide!

Deadly serious :- Joey Barton!

Joey Barton in our team, a top team, would be exceptional.

Good mates with Vinny and Kun as well.

And he did help us win the league once already!

He really does fight to the end.

Not the best Clarkie I`ve ever seen.

Christian Eriksen from Spurs.

Didn't the guy snub us a few seasons back?

To stay at Ajax for an extra year, afaik we didn't go in for him last summer, sour relations with Ajax possibly?

Imagine if we had Eriksen and Strootman right now. They're both brilliant.

Sessegnon he has shown movement and pace along with a good shot, I think you cannot have enough midfield players with skill in your squad.

We need better full backs. Zabaleta is very good, but offensively he is isn't as fluent or creative as he could be. Clichy is normally solid and relaible, but again doesn't offer anything in the final third. Kolarov does, but he isn't very mobile nor fluent with the ball.

We need another centre half to replace Lescott, although i wouldn't be too bothered if we just allowed Rekik to come back and play. He's been good this season for PSV. Nastasic is to come back yet, and MDM has been very good over the last couple of months, now he has settled down.

Other than that, probably someone in midfield who can challenge Yaya and Fernandinho, or compliment them. He needs to be fluent on the ball.

Our main problem is that we have maybe 6 or 7 players on the pitch who are fluent and quick with the ball, whereas the top teams in Europe have 10 or 11. This is the level we aspire to and to get there, we might have to see less of some of the players we love, which means that guys like Zabaleta might end up merely becoming squad players.....which would be sad to see as everyone loves him, and rightly so, he's a hero.

Zabaleta has 5 assists this season in the league which is more than any other right back in the league and defensively I don't know many right backs that are better, he is our outstanding full back in that position and if you take him out we will lose a lot of heart and fight.

It's the left fullback positions that need upgrading, Kolarov is good going forward but a liability in defence and it's vice versa with Clichy but even he has regressed defensively this year.

Sanga to be back up for Zabaleta, one of Kolarov or Clichy to be sold with the other one left over to be used as the back up to a new first choice left back.
