The reason I reckon Lescott and Barry or Milner will go is because they are big earners who can be replaced with younger prospects on half of their wage.
Selling these players would raise around 40 million minimum and free the wage bill by close to 1 million a week including Balotelli's wage.
In:
A new striker- Falcao or Cavani would fit the bill around £150k a week
Winger/forward- Jovetic around £120k
Midfield - someone young with potential like Will Hughes or Hendrick (his Derby team, who I've heard were keeping an eye on) around £30k a week
Defence - an experienced defender like Carvalho or someone else with big game experience. Who can help Nasty and Rekik out and would be on lower wages than Lescott. And Luke Shaw. Around £60k and £30k.
Goalkeeper - someone to push Joe for the number one shirt. Possibly someone from LaLiga. Around £25k
Wage bill would be around £415k a week for these players which would shed over half a mil a week of the wage bill.
Team for next season:
Hart, Pantillimon, New GK
Zab, Micah, Nasty, Vinny, Rekik, New CB, Clichy, Shaw
Sinclair, Milner, Hughes, Rodwell, Garcia, Yaya, Nasri, Silva
Jovetic, Aguero, Falcao, Guidetti
That team looks impressive with a lot of youth involved.
Totally agree however I think the fact that we had 4 top strikers who all wanted first team football meant that we played 2 strikers every game.
If we had that forward line it would mean we could play with 1 striker and have have a more compact midfield for UCL games.

That would leave us a bit short do you not think
your striker lineup would not exactly solve that. Aguero and Cavani/Falcao would demand to start every game. Jovetic would not be very happy with a bench role, although Guidetti probably would. Maybe we will sell Dzeko and Tevez and get Cavani and go with three strikers next season. However, we get one more AM perhaps and this means we can play with just 1 striker so the position would not be as thin.city91 said:NoahCity said:one other area we need to improve is midfield.

Taarabt is better addition than Sinclair.
Ben Arfa is better than Nasri.

Aguero and Cavani could battle it out for the striker role and Jovetic could quite easily play the same role as Silva or Nasri.

I'd ignore him mate. He also thinks Marko Marin and Eden Hazard are better than David Silva.
We are being linked with Yuto Nagatomo in Italy (but so are United and Real). He would be a great replacement for Kolarov on lower wages, actually think he's a better player than Kolarov. Only 26, Japanese (possibly commercial benefits), and earns around £35,000/week at Inter so we wouldn't have to go over the top on wages like we did with Kolarov and others. Can also play as a winger and on the right hand side.
