Recently I have wrote on this page that things will dramatically change when Real steps in to transfer market. They have given a hint who would be their targets.
I believe that they might offload Ronaldo and Bale for around 200m€.
I don't believe that Diego Costa could be their target, simply you don't play for 4-5years for A.Madrid make your name and then end up at Real. You may go to Barcelona,Valencia or Sevilla but you can't to Real if plan to have normal life.
I am not wondering Hazard rumours since it was naturally to happen especially with Benitez taking over Real Madrid.
They might easily try to sign Oscar as well.

Diego doesn't fit in with their beautiful boys style. Oscar doesn't make sense with James, odegaard, and their 18 other attacking mids which has brought a massive loss of balance to the side. While hazard might fill an eventual hole there are a lot of things that are subject to change in the meantime which will provide a clearer picture.

I agree that Costa won't go to Real Madrid but that's nothing to do with the fact he's played for athletico. Desire the rivalry Real Madrid are the biggest club in the world and can have pretty much any player they want. De Gea spent 7 years at athletico Madrid but seems perfectly happy moving to Real Madrid

Looking at our starting 11 for next season I think we only need 1 new marque signing plus maybe a couple of players to increase competition on the rest. Plus, in addition we would need to replace squad players who might leave, like Cech, Luis and Remi. My stone wall starters are Courtois, Branna, JT, Cahill or Zouma, Cezar, Cesc, Matic, Willian, Hazard and Costa. 1 Marque signing would be Pogba and move Cesc forward or Bale/Griezmann. Just my opinion.

Mine would be either Varane for Cahill or Griezmann/Bale for Oscar/Willian. I doubt we could sign both but I would be very happy with one of them

Still think cesc isn't capable of playing as part of the double pivot with our current style. Each signing brings different things. Varane would allow for a deeper defensive line. Pogba would provide a threat to shoot from distance and more balance in the side. Griezman would bring more balance to our attacking threat. Can't really go wrong.

2013-2014 Mourinho was building a squad he wanted. 2014-2015 Mourinho already has the team to win PL.
Next season he cannot make just cosmetic changes and go on. If you want to win big you have to think big.

After watching the CL Final I think that if we going to buy any Juve midfielder it should be Marchisio not Pogba. I have seen Pogba play about 10 games now and apart from 1 brilliant long-range goal he has not impressed.

Pogba is already a very good player and yet he's still got a lot of room for improvement. His talent is scary. If we buy a Juve midfielder (though very unlikely) it has to be Pogba. Marchisio is good but Pogba would be a much better buy.

I agree with Costa, I have watched a fair few Juventus games and I fail to see what's special about Pogba. Young, tall and strong but his passing seems sloppy and he can be wasteful on possession not to mention Marchisio would be about a fifth of the price if that

3 years ago Chelsea were after a player that most of the world was interested in but was looking to be extremely expensive. That player just swept the individual awards for the English premier league and is on his way to being the best player this club has ever seen. It should say something that Barcelona, the club that is seemingly vastly ahead of the rest of the world, have a ton of interest in him. If we want to compete with the best we have to buy with the best.

Barcelona as good as they are, can be wrong too. Bojan was tipped to be the next Messi and now plays for Stoke. The asking price for Pogba would be astronomical and I don't think we need him or that he is worth anywhere near the sum

We should and I'm sure are, interested in the best players available and Pogba is one of them. That said, I think he will end up in Spain. I'm hoping RLC can be our own Pogba.

Off course Pogba will end up in Spain. Barcelona can't buy this summer but Real Madrid still can. Griezman didn't implicated Real Madrid as the best destination for Pogba by accident.

I didn't mean to insinuate he would come here, I was more so saying that is the type of signing we need to make to bridge the gap.
