Won't it be weird if we sold Azpi, Ed? If Willian, Giroud, Azpi, Alonso all leave, Pedro, Jorginho, Kante and Caballero will be the only senior players left.

{Ed001's Note - I wouldn't expect him to be sold just yet, but clubs can always buy senior players.}

Aah I see. Personally, I think we will try for a winger, a LB, a CB and a Striker + Sancho if he is available.

LB/ LWB- Gaya; RB/ RWB- Atal; CF- Icardi/ Mousa Dembele; LW/ RW- Bailey/ Neres/ Sancho (left footer preferable) ; CB- Ruben Dias/ Upacameco; DM/ CM- Bruno Guimaraes/ Florentino Luis - won't be a bad addition to any squad.

You won't win anything with this squad.

Save money and keep Emerson. been brilliant so far. And use Maatsen as understudy. bailey / Neres haven’t kicked on really and Neres is a show pony and would get folded up in the prem league. Icardi is trouble and his wife’s trouble from all accounts, Dias / upcameco would be brilliant, DM I don’t know about this Brazilian kid or read anything. Ruben neves is still very young and is close to cesc with long passes, or the future star aouar would be probably as expensive as neves buying from a rival team, sancho is the must buy. the hazard replacement. not as quick as people make out but 1v1 is world class and end product to match, young English and would no doubt adapt well with Mount RLC CHO James etc, striker is dembele all day long, and team of
Kepa
Atal ( James )
Rudiger ( Zouma )
Upcameco ( Christensen )
Emerson ( Maatsen )

Kante ( Ampadu )
Aouar ( neves )

Sancho
Pulisic
Cho

Dembele

Add to that mount / RLC / Tammy to attacking options or 3 midfielders or whatever would compete, plus Steve Holland back or someone in back room to really work on defence side of things. Young team and exciting, but £££,

My ins:

Dembele
Sancho
Romagnoli
Atal

Outs:

Giroud
Batshuayi
Willian (Keep Pedro as 4th choice for cup games.
Moses
Kenedy
Van Ginkel
Drinkwater
Barkley
Bakayoko
Baba
Alonso
Zouma
Zappacosta
Azpi

Senior or not I’d sell Azpi if we can be ruthless and get a good fee for him. Sell the rest of the loan players too and get them off the books for good. It’s good to have quality players in each position.

My XI:

Kepa

Atal Rudiger Romagnoli Emerson

Kante Jorginho Loftus-Cheek

Sancho Dembele Hudson-Odoi

Subs:

Caballero
Christensen
James
Kovacic
Mount
Pulisic
Abraham

Res:

Cummings
Maatsen
Gilmour
Pedro.

You're all naming foreigners. I think British players will be the thing of the future especially now as the people voted.

The new "squad" suggestion above pretty much undoes all the hard work currently being done by lamps and Morris to blood these youngsters in.

do you really think if any of them start making the first 11 then get bumped down into the subs bench for young foreigners is the way we should go? we've got youngsters proving their worth here, which is what most fans including myself have wanted for sometime and already you're dismantling it.

Tomori Geuhi Zouma at CB. i think we are good for a while, Rudiger can more than mentor these lads in defence. Unless any of them decline seriously like Christensen has. We need monsters at the back at to me he comes across too nice.

Reece James is Azpi's successor that's clear as day and he's going to be some player. yet you've put him on the bench. Azpi can still do a job at centre back so there is even more experienced cover there.

I'd love Chillwell at Chelsea personally for LB and i think that move might happen just hope the fee isn't too daft. Emerson has been great. I expected Alonso to move on in the summer but im certain he won't be here next season.

The hardest decision is the central midfield. we have players now abundance and with RLC still to come back which i think will be the end of Barkley. I don't think Kante will be with us much longer (season or two left if that) .

Pulisic is and will continue to really struggle with us. super cup final i thought he was great but he's fizzled somewhat and I'm conscious that his eagerness to return early has played its part in that - i don't know.

You've also demoted Abraham at the moment he's scoring goals, yes he's missed a few chances but he's scored 7 goals, one shy of aguero and I'm not suggesting that he is of his level - but to have an opinion like that (which you are entitled to of course) after only 6 games into the season i feel is ridiculous.

Batsuayhi i feel has always been unlucky with us, he knows where the goal is and he does score goals when given the opportunity.

Giround i expect to move on at the end of the season.

the post above suggests a complete overhaul and i really think you're over thinking it. we just need a few additions unless of course someone leaves. There's already been massive changes, let's just see how this season pans out first, aye?
