Mikky

Added to this the reason he left Madrid was that his family wanted to come back to England

They have Mazraoui - Kimmich - Laimer - Pavlovic who can all play RB

Ideally you want a player in the mould of a Kudos/D Jota - quite a few have said Mbuemo which in the profile type OR if you want a pure back up, take a punt on someone like a Morgan Whittaker

Damn auto-correct

Not a like for like as such but Yousuf Fofana would be good - on a Bosnian too - similar age My dream scenario is Ederson AND Fofana

Anything above 20 and I’d be ecstatic

Anywhere close to £20m would be nice

This - great pro - sadly we have to option due to FFP - would need to be sacrificed I the summer

Best thing to help with FFP is to sell Longstaff - say we buy Ederson - he is surplus to requirements imo

There’s a shed load of players that need binning in the summer Dummett Hendrick Ritchie Hayden Fraser Manquillo Targett (Longstaff and Wilson)

Atalanta quite often sell via a loan to buy option - very common with Italian clubs tbh

Hilarious how Barcas name is always thrown in on any transfer

I literally can’t remember any other occasion it was worn????

That blue kit is stunning - can only ever remember seeing it when Paul Daglish scored vs Tranmere

You can get Morgan Whittaker for circa £10m - no risk 3rd striker - can cover on the right - play as a 10 Better than having someone like Parkinson on the bench

Even if he did sign a new contract he won’t cost much

Shocked it took this long - if you watch Roma they are truly shocking - barely string 2 passes together

Could do with a couple of midfield loans on the basis that neither Willock or Anderson are going to be back anytime soon me thinks

As close to a Rodri clone there is (in terms of style - Rodri is world class)

Gambia are hopeless

Tonali had the best seasons of his career alongside Kessie - Fofana is sort of similar A flat 3 no longer works in the long term(we can still use it) - need to (or Howe needs to) evolve

What was that from Evans?

I think he’d work really well in a double pivot with Tonali - the ideal profile is actually Phillips/Neves - his style is perfect for us - can be quite flexible with our players then in terms of the front 4 in a 4231 - would mean we could offload Longstaff to help with FFP

Said it before, we need to play with a double pivot

The solution is players coming back which means we are able to rotate during the game with fresh legs
