You'd rather get rid of Marchisio.....? A midfield with Vidal, Pirlo, Pogba and Padoin as the 1st choice back up would be great. If our ambition was to finish 5th.
As for replacing Marchisio, what cheap, quality midfielder would be willing to come here and be rotated when there's plenty of big clubs out there with midfields much easier to break in to than our own.

I should clarify i'm not suggesting we SHOULD sell Caceres. But if United put a desperate offer in, and we get Abate then i'd consider it
But he should stay ahead of Padoin and Isla, although it's not exactly awful to think of selling him
Say we move to a back 4
Lichtsteiner (Abate)
Barzagli (Bonucci)
Chiellini (Ogbonna/New CB)
Coentrao (Asamoah) Bring in Murru for free, and allow Asamoah to play in CM too if need be.
There's at least 2 for every position, and each of the subs are still definitely good enough to ride our bench.
Plus Padoin and Isla would probably be around (If we sold Caceres) as emergency depth.
I do hope we sell Peluso though
