Hope we close mercato and spend big money on Tolisso in the summer. Could be the ideal Vidal-esque addition we would need in midfield.

Even if things dont pan out as we want them, he's a young lad and would have a relatively fair resale value, so we don't stand to lose much with this purchase. So for the right price he's a safe target.

He's mediocre at best. He hasn't been relevant or important for years now, but you insist he is someone who can improve is. He can't fucking improve is, and if you truly believe he can, we are even more fucked in midfield than I initially thought.

Enough depth and quantity signings ffs!

I agree. Any compromised signing should only be done on the cheap. I would have been ok with Witsel for 6m. Gustavo is a gamble but might be ok if it was a loan with an "option" to buy. Having said that, I don't know much about it.

Better off to wait until the summer for any big signings.

We might just bring Bentancur straight away For 9.4m. He might develop into something great; worth a gamble imo.

Gagliardini for 25m is too much
Witsel is gone
Tolisso can't play in ucl and they will ask 35m+
Gustavo is past his peak and we're adding another 30 year old in the squad

I am a little surprised about the witsel situation. The Chinese are going to start being a massive factor in future transfer windows now.

They have already become a considerable factor. They are offering insane money and transfer fees to players that would have gone on bargain to other ambitious clubs while struggling elswhere or wants to get a career move up. Now instead some of those players say fuck it I'll get 4-5 times that much in China instead. So defenitely a factor.
