If we have no money for a young top CM, and Vidal is for sale, get him back this summer. We need a player like him.

Vidal, Pjanic, Marchisio, Matuidi, Can, Bentancur is great midfield
man, did you see sturaro was subbed in tonight instead of marchisio. And you still think marchisio will play for us next season. He is a goner...

We need to save one of Son or Dele. Erickson would be nice too.
Bro. Bayern-Juve was lousy idea. But new and improved Juventus Spurs next year... :weee:

Szczesny
Aurier-Benatia-Chiellini-Sandro
Dembele-Pjanic-Alli
Eriksen
Dybala-Kane

Bench: Lloris, Buffon, Caldara, Rugani, Vertonghen, De Sciglio, Spinnazola, Asamoah, Matuidi, Marchisio, Can, Sturaro, Bentancur, Bernadeschi, Costa, Lamela, Son, Mandzu, Higuain

That firepower :tuttosport:

Hopefully we will fill up the gaps(RB & CM) in the summer, this current midfield simply gets dominated physically, i woudn't be surprised if we go after Spurs's Dembele next summer for example tbh, not that i am very fond of him personally, just that literally almost any physically imposing CM can probably do a better job than what Khedira or Matuidi had to offer last night...

I don't want to be too harsh on Blaise, pre-injury Matuidi seemed like exactly what we were missing to make this 4-3-3 work, tho this half-fit Matuidi leaves a lot to be desired... nonetheless i still think he will eventually bounce back to his usual self sooner rather than later, so that's a good sign.

All in all, next mercatto will tell us more about how far we aiming to go.

For now, let's just enjoy this win and hope we will have a fully fit squad going into the Q-F. :D :tup:

I must say that I underrated Eriksen and he proved he is WC!
This guy might not be the type of AM I would usually want but this guy is simply brilliant - Always makes the right decisions providing great passes and get the team flow - Definitely WC
Anyway we are not going to get any of Tottenham`s players as the only guy to move on will be Kane (if he does move) and it will be to Real Madrid for a record fee - That is if they fail to get Neymar...

Our transfer market really depends on A.Sandro and Dybala IMO - if they stay put we wont buy anyone big but get some bargains like Can on free maybe this N.Korean`s CR7 but nothing special...
If A.Sandro leaves we have around 70M+30M which we might use on SMS and a LB as Asamoah is probably gone too..
If Dybala leaves we have around 150M+30M which we definitely get someone big in this scenario...
If both leave you can expect 2 big signigs..

My prediction: A.Sandro to Chelsea 65M, Dybala to PSG 150M, SMS to Juve 90M Spinazzola to Juve free, Neymar to Real 250M
Also Im not sure we get Can as we should have got him by now and it stalls for some reason..

Dembele will be 31 in july on a high salary, that's a skip.

Is that what you think or an actual fact?
Its a fact. He's been heavily criticized in Paris for it but he's protected by their owner, El Khelaifi so its just ignored in the end.

I doubt we'd sign a new 'top' RB next summer. Most likely it will be Darmian or Spinazzola rotating with De Sciglio.

The bigger problem is midfield where we need atleast 2 quality CM's. But signing Can means i have huge doubts over whether we sign another 'established' midfielder unless both Khedira and Marchisio are sold. I am looking at Can and a another young midfielder with potential who might not start right away.

So you expect A.Sandro to stay?

I actually dont but i hope.

If he leaves , we'd be looking at a new LB on the market who can rotate with Spinazzola(who can play both sides just like Darmian)

That would leave us with De Sciglio/Darmian/Spinazzola/Sandro or new LB

Pretty retarded comment that makes me question your ability to clean your own anus without covering your face in it.


We needed a dog in the midfield to break them up, that would get stuck in and get at least one yellow. a hard man.

Risking the best midfielder we potentially got, would have been unwise
