First team squad outgoings?

out:
cahill, pedro, fabregas, drinkwater, david luiz,

in:
alderweireld, arnautovic, bailey, savic

back and/or at least regularly involved:
zouma, hodson-odoi, ampadu

if that is going to happen (which I strongly doubt) I would be more than happy!

We have 4 CMs - Kante, DD, Baka, Cesc. 

You want us to sell 2 of them - cesc and DD and sign none. 

Also, why would we sign alderwereld, savic and recall zouma? Overkill of CBs specially since the new manager might be playing a back 4. 

Also, arnautovic will be a bang average buy. Hardly an upgrade on a hapless pedro. Already 28 and has already reached his ceiling. 

DD on the other hand has proven to be a good player whenever given an oppurtunity. Given our CM resources and the fact that we wont be able to attract world class players without CL, we surely need to keep good players than sell just for the sake of it.

okay, if we are playing a back 4 then its nonsense, otherwise it would be a great signing for us.

also arnautovic would be right now an immense upgrade to pedro, but its questionable if he would be ready to fulfill the part as a backup or not regularly player..

Those 3 would probably cost 200 million, I think we would be lucky to get one of them at the most.

 
From what I have seen Sandro is the most overrated player on our radar.  Emerson is our LB of the future 

 
it's hard to say because pedro and willian are both techically good players, so if we get in a manager next season like, say, sarri, for instance, then keeping the technically proficient players could be crucial. at napoli he has older players like hamsik, mertens and callejon. fabregas could even have a part to play too as back up if we bring in another techical centre mid. right now i think most of the money we make would probably be better off coming from loaned players as it would be interesting to see what the new coach does with the current crop of players, who have so far only played under mourinho and conte, both similar style of coach. a more offensive minded coach could make the current crop go up another level.

Pedro will be 31 in a few months, is badly out of form, will slowly get worse, is on over 100k a week and only has 1 year left on his contract. I don't see any real reason to keep him around in all honestly

Much rather sell him off while we can still get decent money for him and have Hudson-Odoi take his place

 
SELL...

Alonso 40m
Cahill 10m
Fabregas 15m
Pedro 15m
Drinkwater 20m
Batshuayi 50m
Bakayoko 30m
Van Ginkel 25m
Luiz 15m
(220m?)

BUY...

Koulibaly 55m
Dendoncker 25m
Seri 35m
Fekir 55m
Zaha 45m

(215m?)

Could be possible...

Courtois | Cabellaro
------------
Emerson / Baba
Rudiger / Christensen
Koulibaly / Dendoncker
Azpilicueta / Zouma

Every year that we don't win there's a thread talking about how half the squad are leaving and every year it ends up being 3-5 senior additions and sales.

The new manager is likely to want to have a look at what's around before making any big calls.

 
Outs 

Cahill,Pedro,bakayoko,drinkwater... basically every signing made this year.

Oh and hazard his inconsistencies at giving his all have been annoying me for a long time.

In

Bale(px eden), RLC, Teirney. Florenzi. Perisic, rafinha if inter dont take him. 

 
It's not just the fact people want to get rid of Hazard that is crazy, it's the fact people want Bale in exchange

Bale is almost 29, heavily reliant on pace, is an absolute crock and is on ridiculously high wages

 
Sell hazard and sign bale, absolutely amazing. I honestly don't know what to say to that. 

And someone else wants to sell alonso, what are you people sniffing.
