Even though he dropped that catch first half Kepa is really starting to show his quality. He's pulled off some fantastic saves to keep us in this. Now the cup final has blown over we need to give him credit. That reflex save from Mitrovic first half was unreal.

If we can get this transfer ban put back to January and could sign 4 or 5 top tier players who would everyone like to see brought in? We already have Pulisic joining and if Hazard leaves we need a top class winger to replace preferable left footed like Pepe and shift Callum to the left because if we play Callum he won't leave. These are the players I'd like to see us target.
Top class CB - Koulibaly/ Romagnoli
Luiz should be offloaded. Rudiger 3rd choice and Christensen should always start IMO. He's positionally our best CB by far. He just needs a more physical leader next to him.
LB - Mendy/ Chilwell
Either of these is be over the moon with. Sell Alonso and maybe even Emerson I'd like to see Jay Da Silva back.
A creative CM - Aouar
Kovacic and Barkley ain't the answer at LCM. Aouar is unreal him and RLC could rotate. Kovacic is better deeper but he isn't a 50m pound player. Our budget is betttef spent elsewhere I'd rather Ampadu given a run if needs be.
A young ST - Jovic
Abraham should return as back up unless Higuain stays. Jovic looks quality and hungry and is very complete for his age.
That's 4 top class players that would cost around 250-300m. We have plenty of players we could raise them fees alone for. For example these would be my outgoings hopefully permanent and realistic fees:
Morata - 40m
Giroud - 10m
Batshuayi - 20m
Bakayoko - 30m (Milan love him)
Barkley - 15m
Kenedy - 10m
Willian - 30m
Drinkwater - 10m
Van Ginkel - 15m
Moses - 10m
Musonda Jnr - 10m
Baba - 5m
Alonso - 10m
Emerson - 20m
Luiz - 10m
Zappacosta - 10m
Zouma - 20m (Don't rate him)
Azpilicueta - 20m (Upset a few not not a RB)
= 295m
Getting them realistic fees for them players and finally get rid could be used for 4 quality players. That's without 100m if Hazard leaves. We also have the likes of Kalas, Kane, Omeruo, Pasalic and Baker who need offloading for good.
James, Aina, Jay Da Silva, Tomori and Abraham should all return as squad options.

I'd go with Jovic, Wan Bissaka, Auoar/ Ndombele/ Milinkovic Savic/ Barella and if Eden, Willian or Pedro were to leave, I'd add Fekir og Pepe to that list.
2.) 23 Feb 2019 11:29:08
Those fees are atrocious and we aren't going to sell 17 senior players in one window, regardless of a transfer ban. Turn off FIFA.
3.) 23 Feb 2019 13:57:17
This wouldn’t even happen on FIFA 19.

Luiz Giroud are out of contract this summer and if Sarri stays he’s already said a winger would need to go before Cho gets more game time that’s even before Pulisic arrives, although I don’t think he’s interested in intergrating the youth, supposedly he’s not watched any youth matches.
5.) 23 Feb 2019 21:01:08
Why are they atrocious? They’re all about right?
6.) 23 Feb 2019 21:55:03
Drinkwater luiz barkley Pedro willian Alonso Zappa
Bakyoko morata Moses Giroud Zouma michy - out
Higuain ( loan option ) Jovic / icardi ( Jovic more likely ) ndombele Chilwell militiao / Marquinhos Pepe fekir - IN
Ideally in a dream world I’d love
Kepa
Chilwell Marquinhos rudiger Azpi
Kante ndombele
Hazard fekir Pepe
Jovic
subs :
Cho Christensen Pulisic Higuain Emerson RLC jorginho, bulka
Reece James, Mount, Abraham, daSilva, palisic a premier league loan if possible
This like mentioned is a huge overhaul and would take a good few windows, something we apparently don’t have.

Giroud and Luiz's contract is up at the end of the season and we're not renewing Girouds and hopefully not with Luiz's either. Azpi and Alonso just signed new contracts and eventhough i want them replaced i can't see them being sold. Atletico have an option to buy on Morata which i don't think they'll take. Nobody will be silly enough to spend money on Drinkwater because of his wages, he'll just go out on loans. The rest are possible but i wouldn't expect much of them to happen. Think the only players we'll really make money with if we decided to sell are Zappacosta, Zouma, Bakayoko, Barkley, Willian, Batshuayi and Kennedy. We'll be lucky to get over £120m out of that. But add that with our "rumoured" £200m transfer budget, as long as we don't spend any money on squad fillers we'll be able to bring in 3-5 really good additions. Agree with your targets though, maybe a Fekir if we couldn't get Aouar but i'd be very happy if we got those players in.
8.) 24 Feb 2019 02:37:11
Your valuation of Barkley, Emerson, Alonso is quite low.
9.) 24 Feb 2019 20:00:40
I don’t want to get into the money side of things but I think this summer, so long as we are able to sign players during an appeal, we’ll see something like this.
OUTS – Green, Zappacosta, Luiz, Cahill, Emerson, Baba, Bakayoko, Drinkwater, Moses, Kenedy, Kovacic, (at least one of) Pedro/ Willian, Batshuayi, and (at least one of) Higuain/ Giroud.
LOAN RETURNS TO FIRST TEAM SQUAD – Clarke-Salter, James, Mount, Pulisic and Abraham.
INS – Chilwell and Icardi
That would leave us with something like this.
Kepa, Caballero, Random Old GK
Azpilicueta, James, Rudiger, Christensen, Ampadu, Clarke-Salter, Chilwell, Alonso
Kante, Jorginho, Loftus-Cheek, Barkley, Mount
Hudson-Odoi, Pedro/ Willian, Pulisic, Hazard
Icardi, Higuain/ Giroud and Abraham.
19 Feb 2019 04:23:29
I'd actually play this team in the final. Won't happen but we need change.
4-2-3-1:
Kepa
Zappacosta Christensen Rudiger Emerson
Kante Ampadu
CHO Loftus-Cheek Hazard
Higuain.
1.) 19 Feb 2019 07:45:55
Lol there’s more chance Eva carneiro returns as assistant manager to Jose than that lineup!
Not saying I’m against it though, can’t be any worse than what we have right now.
2.) 19 Feb 2019 09:06:01
I would prefer Eva than Jose!
3.) 19 Feb 2019 09:10:48
Sarri will say what’s the point of moving onto a plan B when we haven’t sorted out Plan A yet.
For what it’s worth. I would go 4-2-3-1 against City.
Kepa
Azpilicueta Rudiger Luiz Emerson
Kante Kovacic
Odoi RLC Hazard
Higuain
But it ain’t going to happen lads .
27 Feb 2019 23:33:24
Skriniar, Romagnoli or Koulibaly next to Christensen would be 👌ðŸ».
26 Feb 2019 23:07:24
Isn’t that cricket? 🤨.
23 Feb 2019 21:01:08
Why are they atrocious? They’re all about right?
21 Feb 2019 07:08:31
I’d like to see Kante and Aouar there with Loftus-Cheek as the ten. That would have everything. Aouar has a cracking work rate think he’ll be the next Modric. A midfield two would bring the best out of Kante as well.
20 Feb 2019 03:09:25
Morris id love as assistant he will give CHO and Christensen starts and give them a kick up the backside.
19 Feb 2019 05:44:26
Marina out. Director of Football in. Sarri out unless he gives other players chances. Then about 15 players should be leaving who I can’t be bothered naming.
