We could easy bomb out the cl at the group stages. I would, if it was me. Bank the money get the experience move on and take the league cup and FA cup seriously
Think I'm more LB first, then RCB. Burn's got more mistakes in him and less contribution than Schar. Burn's good cover for Botman so I'd want him fresh just in case. Targett's reasonable backup. Just need a proper, decent LB. Even if we buy RCB, I doubt Howe would start them. RW won't happen - he's happy with Almiron, Murphy and the flexibility of Gordon plus we have Minteh playing CL football this year to develop. Probably need better at RB than Ashby/Manq as well, with Krafth both out til Xmas and crap. Livramento.a good shout here, but I imagine they're weighing up whether Ashby can make it.
I'll put it out - our defence is actually pretty good. Can anyone confirm/ deny that we had our tightest defence in our post KK era last season? Must be best or near best. The biggest concern of the ability of last year's defence was their ability to shift the ball into searing attacks quickly. I do worry though that injuries can screw up the job. If Botman /Schar / Pope/ Trippier are out we might be in trouble. That applies to everyone's best team I accept. A pacy left back and centre back would be very welcome, even if they're under 21. But IMO we're stronger than last season. In my head Barnes will score 10+ and Tonali will help get us possession and forward passes. It's the CL demands which might strain the squad. I'm hoping that us, Brighton and Villa will really shake up the top eight. And I'd laugh my head off if Kane goes to Bayern or PSG.
Two signings lined up Heffernan from AC and He’sa centre back as well as Zefi from Inter. Also signed Andrea Romeo from AC to help Tonali
Heffernan and Zefi due to sign. Also signed Milan’s team manager as some sort of personal team member of Tonali to help him settle.
Good that we are improving youth development, but all the more reason to shift Shola on asap, before he ruins potentially talented careers with ****ty loan deals that lead to dead ends.
2 18 year old Irish lads. One been with Milan for 18 months the other with Inter for 18 months. Only previously heard of Zefi personally.
