Then drop Iaquinta to the bench and put on a DM (Muvuba?) behind Almiron :agree:

But it's all going to depend on the style Raneiri wants to employ. I can see him experimenting with the formation until he gets something he's happy with.

if we put 6 new players into our starting line up 1 month before the season starts, we're going to get raped so, so hard.

Endnu en god post, Tahir :)

They might not be better, but it seems likely that the new signigs will need time to come together.

Of course they must learn to play together and get a feel for each other... but that's what training camp and friendlies are for.

I would rather go into the first week of the season with 6 new players and added depth than the squad we currently have.

Plus it's likely Camo and Trez are leaving town anyways. So what choice do we have? We need to bolster our squad and we need to replace some key players if they do.

Point taken.

But it's still too early to say the board will drag these negotiations out throughout the entire off-season when the transfer window has yet to officially open yet. I'm still hoping we'll be able to confirm at least three or four signings within the next couple of weeks.

obviously we need an overhaul but you cant just throw 6 players into the starting line up and expect results. thats what inter does every year, and see how well theyve done? (they actually didnt do it so much this year)

Players take seasons to adapt to each other, 3 friendlies just wont do it. You have to keep a solid core of the team together and build upon it.

Wise words from 3pac...

exactly like seb said...a complete overhaul will screw us over...we need to try to keep our core players and just add a couple additions....nothing to inter.aaahhhemm i mean drastic...

well we def need 2 CBs...Milito and Barzagli
Camo and Trez want to leave...Sali and Huntelaar
central midifield is not gr8...Almiron and Mavuba/Tiago

i think most of these changes HAVE to be made...Juve would prefer if Camo and Trez stayed but if they want to leave then we have to replace them...so 6 changes would then be inevitable
