- Start date
if we play with duo in mid, then the starters are Loca and Thuram, but in this case we are overcrowded with McKennie, Koop and Luiz on the bench. There is also Miretti coming back.
We would have 2 our biggest signings from last year (Koop and Luiz) sitting on the bench, cant see it happening, we are probably goona change to play trio in midfield, even if Luiz is probably sold.
That would mean either 352 or 3412, so no wingers then and Mbangula is probably sold while Chico wont be bought. Explains the interest in David too, who might not be the greatest lone striker, but could work really well in duo partnership.
MDG
Kalulu/Savona Bremer/? Gatti/Kelly
Nico/Alberto Loca/DLuiz? Thuram/McKennie Koop/? Cambiaso/Weah?
Yildiz/? David?/?
depending on the future of some players (Weah, DLuiz, Vlaho, Kolo) we would need at least one defender, one mid and one attacker (but probably two).

I've been following your posts for months. Even though I haven’t said anything until now, I just want to say that I really appreciate your work as a guru 
The summer mercato discussions are the heart of this forum, and those who bring actual inside info are its backbone. Sadly, there aren't many real gurus left. Thanks for being one of the best, if not THE best.

I wasn't joking. There are very few gurus left. Or if you don't consider yourself a guru, let's just say members who actually share transfer info.
If I’ve been following correctly, there are only four of you. You and Badass bring the real news. Mark is cosi cosi. The Belarusian guy tries, but he misses more than he hits.

Of course it takes more than a few days / weeks but srsly our game plan and play didn’t improve really. We hardly created anything looked easily disposed and confused. His tactics are aweful.
Gonna be honest I can’t stand him and maybe that’s prejudice but until now he looks like another mediocre shit coach.
He’s all talk and no action. Talked like a winner and he won’t sit back blah blah but shit his pants every single time

Absolutely. Back in the day, the mercato was fun. We used to keep score. I’d give points to the gurus. Plus pts for a hit, minus for a miss. Badass won it quite comfortably and has held the crown for a decade.
I might bring that system back this summer. Could be fun. And honestly, I think we might finally have a real challenger to take that crown off @Badass J Elkann's head

We also had the same shit players that were ineffective under allegri , Motta and continued under Tudor

Considering 3-4-2-1 Tudor used in his last game:
CB is a must and so is a CF
Conceicao should be acquired - If not we need a strong player who can support the attack
CB - Leoni? He could actually fix our defense but he needs Bremer fit.
Weah - We can improve on him but it shouldnt be priority no` 1
Locatelli - I think most here really underrate him but obviously Tonali would be an upgrade
Gyokeres Retegui... - Gyokeres would be tough to get, Retegui is a good player but he needs his team to be able to produce - otherwise I see him playing like a player lost on the field.

Loca will start together with Thuram, we should cement this midfield as we wont get anything better. I have no idea what will happen with Douglas Luiz, will he be able to play in that mid duo? Will Tudor trust him? There is a good player there, but something is just not working, if we sell him then we need another strong CM.
For CB it all depends on Bremer condition if he is unable to come back in full force then we should be spending for some already made CB, Leoni wont be enough for this.
Wingbacks and attack is the biggest question mark.
For wing backs we have Nico (if he keeps playing there, no idea because he really is an attacker, just cant attack), Weah, Alberto Costa and Cambiaso.
On paper this looks good, but Cambiaso, Nico and Weah were so weak playing there for Tudor I really struggle to see us doing good with this guys. Maybe they will come good though, who knows...
I would try to buy at least one real and good Wing back, probably to replace Weah.
Then the attack
Koop is he considered a CAM still or will he be moved to midfield? If its attack then we have:
CF, CF, Yildiz, Conceicao(?), Koop, Mbangula.
My guess is Randal will stay and we will buy Conceicao, in this case we would still need one more CF (maybe David) and someone to be able to play that Winger/CAM role - but that also might be Adzic, who could fit like a glove in that position.
The question mark is also Mbangula as he didnt play at all under Tudor, he might be just sold.
If i had to guess i would say we will have:
Kolo, David, Yildiz, Conceicao, Koop, Adzic and some new signing - will i like it? not really, because I consider both David and Kolo to be a pace merchants more than a real target mans, none of them plays good with their back to the goal, but lets see ...
