Could mean we are indeed signing Golovin, so if the Jorginho rumors prove true, we would have Golovin-Jorginho-Cesc-RLC-Bakayoko-Kante-Barkley-Drinkwater At least 2 must be sold or loaned out. Drinkwater is basically nailed on to go this summer. See a rumour linking him to Newcastle today and West Ham have apparently shown an interest too. My guess would be that either Golovin or RLC go out on loan.
July 10, 20188 yr With RLC and Golovib both having bright world cups i would expect both of them to stay over Barkley.
July 10, 20188 yr I’d expect Barkley to be loaned. He made what 2 apparences in the spring. He needs to get back in shape for the league. He’s young so he could come good.
July 10, 20188 yr The Independent now reporting that Manchester City have pulled out of any potential deal for Jorginho paving the way for us to sign him, meanwhile Italian newspaper Il Messaggero is reporting that we have agreed a €65m fee with Napoli.

That fee has to be inclusive of Sarri as well. Jorginho alone I do not believe is worth that price tag
July 10, 20188 yr I don't agree with others saying we should loan or even sell Barkley, he would be one of the midfielders i would keep. Even if we bring in Golovin and Jorginho, we would still lack goals from midfield and Barkley is the only midfielder we have that can score goals from midfield.

I would honestly go for Baka on loan. The guy seriously needs to improve his form and prove he can play in this league. At least Barkley has shown competency playing PL football. Jorginho/Kante, Golovin/Barkley, and Fabregas should be enough. Maybe keep RLC if we plan on rotating him out wide as well and as cover for a midfield spot. Sell Drinkwater, obviously.
July 10, 20188 yr Barca dominated world football with a midfield of Busquets, Xavi, Iniesta. We don't need goals from midfield if the service to the attack is spot on.

We don't need goals from midfield if the service to the attack is spot on. Barca didn't need goals from midfield because they had/have Messi. That said I'm still not convinced by Barkley and would prefer his place to go to Mount. Loan RLC, sell Barkley. Edited July 10, 20188 yr by the special one

July 10, 20188 yr Perhaps they intend on using Golovin in more advanced role challenging Willian and Pedro for a start rather than in central midfield?.
