Which ones are they in your opinion

Keeping Bonucci, Matuidi
Selling Pjanic, AS, Cancelo, Cuads and Mandzu

Keeping Bonucci, Matuidi
Selling Pjanic, AS, Cancelo, Cuads and Mandzu

Doesn't that all depend on who comes in ? I mean none of those for me in your sell are safe maybe pjanic but that's it. The others are easily replaceable

There should be a separate category called: Keep because no one will buy.

By who? Unless we get WC fullbacks, Cancelo and AS must stay. Pjanic id only sell for Pogba

...Pjanic id only sell for Pogba

there's a reason top teams want pjanic: he's a top midfielder. there's no point in selling our only top midfielder for an other one. we should have at least two mids of his level.

I don't know about must and also depends on coach and style and if the player fits and who the new coach wants. Like it or not these players aren't winning the CL without some big changes

According to L'Equipe; PSG are close to agreeing a deal with Tanguy Ndombele.

Might I just add that his acquisition would be a superb signing for them as they've always been a bit "lightweight" in the middle. He's the kind of strong, high tempo midfielder with boundless energy that they've needed. They'll be stronger next year if he does sign for them. Such a shame as we really should be signing him.

Agreed, i just feel like hed be a necessary sale in case we have Pogba lined up. In that case, id accept a downgrade from Miralem to Rabiot at DM, since its a better scenario than whoever we can get without selling Pjanic (unless its Sergej)

Would suck if we cant get Ndombele, we needed that kind of fresh reinforcement

Whatever coach we get, downgrading the fullbacks is a bad idea. Mandzu and Cuads i could understand but those would be low reward sideways moves

Rabiot has outright refused to play DM at PSG. He only wants to play B2B.

He played DM whenever i saw him. Is that one of the reasons hes sidelined?

 

[s4tch]

ndombélé should be a must buy indeed.

 

[Juvenann]

As beautiful as the ones from your avatar?

They are literally like that, lol.

Ya. I think PSG supporters prefer him at DM but apparently him and his mom want him to score goals so he only wants B2B.

 

[AndreaCristiano]

I think we need to stop being so player obsessed and realize that these players a good bunch of them for work here anymore

 

[zizinho]

Thats quite stupid. I only want him as Pjanic replacement if Miralem wants out or gets sacrificed for Pogba, considering hes quite proven on the highest level in that position and a freebie, but if thats the case fuck him.

Some potential mistakes there.

Getting rid of Costa, Pjanic, and Sandro and keeping the likes of Bonucci, Matuidi, and De Sciglio

They must be high or taking the piss.

I don’t see how this makes sense though. He’s too slow on the transition to play as a B2B. Playing as a DM/CM best suits his skill set and attributes. Source?

I just found the quickest one, there are others out there that explain it better I think.

Part of Rabiot's downturn in form is just bad timing, but a larger part of it is related to his refusal to play in defensive midfield -- a position he performs well in, despite his preference for a berth farther forward -- and his nonchalance regarding a PSG contract extension.

Imagine we sign Sarri and we keep Higuain. Front 3 of Ronaldo Higuain Dybala .
