If we're talking about Verratti/Griezmann type of signings which are close to 100m I agree. Down at the Sanchez/James level which is around 40-50m I'd say it's possible.

Dybala is definitely a great player but you can also argue he is overrated as well... He is being linked with a world record fee and he hasnt done anything yet...
He definitely has some amazing potential but he hasnt done even close to what Tevez did here... (Dybala is amazing and I hope we would resist any offer for him and let him fulfill his potential here though...)
James is great - He is fast, great off the ball movements, great dribbling, great at assisting and has great shots as well - He could even become better IMO - It is true he isnt a 80M player right now but he could easily be that player as much as Dybala could easily reach the 100M price tag level..
I definitely hope we get him but honestly I wouldnt be dissapointed with Tolisso+Bernardeschi even if my dreams are more of Verratti+Sanchez/James

Everyone keeps saying how Sanchez will go for 40-50mln and imo it's way too unrealistic seeing how prices look nowadays. I'm also not sure why would Real sell James for a 30-40mln loss in the end. If anything I think they can use him in a swap deal for some player.
Sanchez is worth more than 40m, but he wants out and is nearing the end of his contract, if he decides he wants a team he'll push towards them and Arsenal isn't the club that'll avoid low-balling.

It's this poor guy from Udinese, who broke his leg against us 4 weeks ago...

Imo hes the type of CM our midfield currently lacks in terms of holding the ball and bringing it up the pitch. We lost someone who can do this with Pogba gone, which is why we struggled early on in the season. Now I dont think he will be on the market this summer as I see Lazio wanting to keep him a little longer and selling him for more, but if there is a chance id jump on it

Yeah id pass on injured Udinese players from now on (Isla)

I agree we need who can hold the ball and do the stuff Pogba was doing, but to go from Pogba's quality to Sergej? Looks way too desperate. We should focus on quality, not quantity.
There's no way we'll make a move forward (in Europe) if our transfer name is Sergej. For a rotation player, yeah maybe, but somebody to fill in the huge gap we have in the midfield? Hell no.

Maybe Beppe is tempting real to sell us James in a deal involving Dybala?. I hope it isnt... but maybe they are having some issues with his contract and got tired of it?.It would be ideal to have James as treq and return dybala to the right wing so he can cut in and shoot like he likes.
in the end, it seems thats his main trait and well we seem to be forced to return him there or risk wasting him. He doesnt like to be an AM and looks lost. use Cuadrado as DYbala´s sub Then we would need to find another guy to alternate with mandz, since he will be alone on that wing for next season unless Pjaca recovers on time which is unlikely.
How many players we should sign this summer?. We need variants for all attacking positions practically, if we keep the current position that is, which seems likely

Nothing? Seriously? So far he always have been up to the level of each challenge. He only missed It was against Milán in Doha and he was so affected that you could still read articles two months where he talks about It.
First half of this season he wasn't good cuz Max was making him play way down and in Argentina Bauza made him play very defensively in the wing (a la Mandzo)
There's nothing random about RM and Farca chosing him over Hazard, Griezmann and Aubameyang.

I didnt say he isnt good... He is definitely talented and a great player.. BUT he hasnt done anything yet - He didnt get to the level Tevez did here this is for sure - A player like him is expected to get there and exceed it and he might will, hell he might even run through it and never look back but right now he isnt..
Will he get to this level who knows maybe and maybe not - He has the talent to get there but sometime players as talented as him reach a ceiling and cant break it - Lets wait and see

Exactly. And i dont know why guys here automatically believe that he MUST play like cuadrado on that position?. He will obvs be tracking back less and will be heavily focused on cutting in and be near that side of the goal line.
His best attribute is his endproduct, so he should exploit that. But he also can put some work in the creative department without having to be hugging the line like a pure winger.
