If Cuadrado is to leave, then both Rodriguez(es) and keeping Remy would be good - unless Lacazette is available. Koulibaly, too, ideally, or someone similar.

(Seems Lukaku is staying, hence Costa, Batshuayi, Remy as strikers).

R. Rodriguez (25m?)

James. R. (65m?)

Koulibaly (50m?)

That would be a dream window.

 

 

 

This would be perfect!! Problem I see now is that we have to stick with out of form players, but with these 3 and the two we have already added we will have enough quality depth to rotate and still have a strong team.

 

Our defensive options could be;

Zouma

Koulibaly

Dave

R Rodriguez

Terry

Cahill

Aina 

Ivanovic (if everyone else is injured)

 

Midfield options;

Kante

Fabregas

Willian

James

Hazard

Moses

Oscar

RLC

Matic (personally reckon we should sell Matic and use Chalobah instead, but can't see it happening)

 

Forward options;

Costa

Batschuayi

James

 

 

At this early stage of the season it looks like the two Manchester clubs will run riot, if we want to be up there with them these signings are a must, if we don't get anyone before the transfer window shuts I really doubt we will make top 4.

I really want us to sign him. Move Azpilicueta to RB finally.

We'll probably use RR as a back up left back knowing us.  Ivanovic will still be playing right back when he's 57.

Sign him up.

 

would give us added depth in the FB Area, Plus he is only 22 yeard old would give us long term cover.

I'm finding this one strange.  A quality player at a club that generally sells with no European football.

Why hasn't a middle to top English team tried to get him?  Why hasn't he been snapped up earlier in the transfer window?  Why are the fees quoted so low in comparison to others in this market?

 

maybe everyone else is set at lb. utd are, man city seem to be too, liverpool are, arsenal are (i think) so really isn't much need for him. we need a lb and he could be obtainable. 

How are Lverpool and Arsnal set at LB?

Why would you move to Liverpool or Arsenal over Chelsea?

Arsenal... CL

Liverpool... if the Chinese investment happens they may be looking to make a statement?? £££

Arsenal are fine at left-back. If the Leicester game is anything to go by Monreal is in excellent form, and Gibbs is a perfectly capable deputy.

 

Liverpool are currently playing James Milner there, so...

I hope Moreno stays at Liverpool forever.

Did not milner start at Lb against Burnley?

That's what I thought I read on something online. Read he started ahead of Moreno, guess Klopp doesn't like playing with the equivalent of 10 men.

He may have seen what happened to Baba, Felipe Luis and Bertrand.

He might also know Ashley Cole and Azpi.

This one's an absolute no brainer and a player we should be doing everything in our power to sign as soon as possible. Anyone who has seen him play would know that he has the attributes to become the best left back in the league as he is solid defensively, strong in 1v1 situations and is an excellent crosser/set piece taker as well as being intelligent positionally. 

Having played in the Bundesliga and the CL he would have come faced some of the best wingers around and shouldn't be fazed by the PL, this too at only 23 years of age. 

Azpilicueta at RB and Rodriguez at LB would instantly make us better defensively as well as a whole lot more dangerous going forward as both are good crossers on their favoured side which would bode well for the likes of Costa and Batshuayi.

Sign him up!!

This one is literally a no brainer.  It would be a no brainer for double the quoted price even.  Not sure why we aren't jumping all over this...

Yep there must be more than meets the eye on this one

He's a transformer?

dunno. i thought they had moreno. liverpool hardly spend anyway so doubt they would go after another lb. 

He's a transformer?

 

He would transform our defence!

Ah but would he put in PRIME performances.... 

The only reason I can think of as too why he hasnt really ever attracted much attention by Bpl team or generally bigger clubs is that he is a stats player a bit like Leighton Baines because he takes set pieces his stats look really good be in reality his overall play is average having not really watched him too often i cant judge

Add Leighton Baines to the long list of fullbacks I'd rather have on my team than Ivanovic!

Is Alberto Moreno on your list?
