With Sarri's coaching I think Ake could do a job for us in MF, whether he would want to take that risk would be interesting.

Not sure she would want to come back here and play in the league cup, and do the occasional job for in midfield. Surely that's the position he left in the 1st place. 

The ake ship has sailed imo. 

 

I think we should look for a second Rudiger, someone atlethic with solid defending. Rugani is way to slow for my liking, pair him with Alonso on our left side and we are in trouble. Koulibaly would have been my first choice, but I doubt we will ever get another Napoli player with their current owner and he costs way to much atm.

I have no idea whether he has the on the ball skills that Sarri demands, but I’ve heard that Skriniar fella from Inter is a fine center half.

Rumours of Rugani and his girlfriend learning english..... Sign?

Seems like he's closer to the signing of a new contract with Juve, or going to Barcelona.

A shame, but not the worst thing in the world. Recall Zouma back first and foremost

Zouma's gone. He's not the type of CB that will do well in Sarri's team. He's not comfortable on the ball, and that is a necessity for a Sarri CB.

We need another quality CB playing with Rudi......this has to be Luiz's last season as the first 11. Pity we cant get koulibaly, would have been the perfect partner for Rudi.

I was really hyped about him but now with the transfer ban and noticing that whenever he plays Juventus concides a lot of goals...meh maybe we dodged a bullet.
