How difficult do you think it would be to pull off a deal for barkley think he's going to be world class

And the lukaku situation he's contracted to us for a few more years yet and if he goes it will be decent money I understand everyones opinion but the club comes first. And am sure the club will sort the striker situation out in the summer. My opinion he's better than what we have now but not what were going to get.

Ive said all year he would be my number 1 target. He is going to be immense, british and would flurrish in CM next to Matic. I no we have other positions of need but Costa, Barkley and Shaw would be a perfect window in my opinion.

I think most people agree he's going to be a stud. But he'd probably be extremely difficult to get, especially if they manage to get top 4 and CL. I think from what Ed has said that Imbula is the most likely cm to come in during the summer.
For me, getting a good striker and being able to move Azpi back to rb by buying a good lb (Shaw!) would be immense.

really hope i'm looking too much into this and its not true but.
What if we are looking/being linked with cavani and lavezzi on the basis of one of hazard or oscar going the other way. let's face it PSG do not need to sell so may only be interested if hazard or oscar went the other way. I think our team would suit a 4-3-3 more than the 4-2-3-1 we are playing, so on that basis a cavani oscar swap wouldn't be so bad if that was the route we had to take. Saying this I would hope we could keep oscar and hazard as we are a bigger club than PSG. i'm sure jose will address the striker situation by bringing in a top quality forward in the summer so any trophy this season is a bonus.
