Verratti is not leaving PSG to come here and be Pirlo's backup. Also PSG doesn't want to let him go. Also, we dont have money for both of them. And we should really focus in the AM deparment. Also, Marchisio fits good there and might be unhappy if we also buy Verratti.
Isco though, makes some sense. He will be leaving leaving Real's bench (I am not sure about bench either James, Kroos, Jese? in front of him) to be a key player and play in his natural position. Real need the money for UEFA's financial rules. They bought him for 30 mil and his price has not gone up for sure. We are supposed to have at least 20 mil free since we were after Iturbe. Also, we are becoming Spanish later and we also have a lot of players that speak Spanish. It makes sense from every aspect.
All this if we are to move in 4-3-1-2.

I think verratti can come here for the right price. I doubt we would actually pay it though, as I said, Its impossible, but this thread is a wishlist so it's what I wish would happen.
I believe Vidal-Verratti-Pogba would be the ultimate perfect midfield. Pirlo is getting older, he can't play 40-45 games a season, he can play 20-25 though.
Verratti can play the 20 games left. Marchisio will have plenty of time on the pitch as a pogba replacment. While asamoah can replace vidal.
Isco behind Tevez and llorente, with morata on the bench, would be totally amazing.
Just imagine this:
Buffon
Lechtstiner - Barzagli - Chielline - Evra
Vidal -----Verratti------- Pogba
----------- Isco -----------
----Tevez --------- llorente
Lechtstiner - Barzagli - Chielline - Evra
Vidal -----Verratti------- Pogba
----------- Isco -----------
----Tevez --------- llorente
In order of priority:
-#10
-Leftback
-Central Defender
-Right Back
Logic:
-#10: We need an alternate to the regista. I'd love to see Marchisio-Vidal-Pogba with a true #10 behind the strikers in a 4-3-1-2.
Top Choices:
-Seasoned Player: Sneijder, Hamsik
-Bargain Bin: Pastore/Taarabt
-Youth: Julian Draxler, Isco, Firmino, Christian Eriksen
Honestly, Hamsik could be obtainable at a reasonable valuation given that Napoli often benched him last year. They also are absolutely stacked with attacking MFers. Draxler would be my absolute top pick given that he's basically guaranteed to increase in value and he's only 20. Christian Eriksen would be attractive too but Tottenham prob wouldn't sell. Taarabt is probably my least desired choice since he makes Mezut Ozil look like a marathon runner.
-Central Defender: We need a stopper. Ogbonna is more of a technical defender. Barzagli is getting old and needs to be replaced.
Top Choices:
-Seasoned Player: Hummels ($$$$), Diego Godin, Garay,
-Bargain Bin: Paletta,
-Youth: Inigo Martinez, Nastasic
At CB, I don't really like Paletta, and I think it would be tough to get Hummels, or Godin without forking over a lot of cash. Garay may be possible, and Martinez is good, but I think Nastasic is the best option. In Serie A, he played incredibly mature for his age, and is playing ok in a league with a completely different playing style. I think he'd be great for our backline.
-Leftback: Anyone please...
-Seasoned Player: Coentrao
-Bargain Bin: Evra, Criscito, Armero
-Youth: Rodriguez (that's easy, but $$$$)
Best case is Evra. He is still good, and he was replaced at ManU. The pace of Serie A is suitable for him, he knows how to win.
Rightback: A guy who can cross please... If we're going to use a narrow formation, the fullbacks must provide width, and must be able to cross or else Llorente should just be sold.
Choices:
I think a reasonable choice would be Snra from Croatia. Excellent crosser, and due to his age should be affordable.
Overall, my preferences (that should be affordable):
-Hamsik
-Nastasic
-Evra
------------Llorente-Tevez----------------
------------------Hamsik------------------
----------Pogba-Vidal-Marchisio-----------
-------Evra-Chiellini-Nastasic-Snra-------
I'm happy about that. We can't have an Italian exodus or else the Italian Serie A will look like the Brazilian Serie A.

I'll add other names that came up in my mind that the media didn't mention now that Allegri's here and may look at a guy behind Tevez and Llorente:
• Clément Grenier
• Maximilian Arnold
• Max Meyer
• Alan Dzagoev
• Giorgian De Arrascaeta(too young but was linked to him)
• Manuel Lanzini
• Clément Grenier
