I'm indifferent really. If we stick to a 3-5-2 I think Immobile would be more useful, but if sign Cerci and switch to an attacking winger formation, I'm all for Cerci. And I agree with you on the Pogba sale.

Knowing Conte he'll stick to 3-5-2 which is fine, really. I just hope he realizes he needs to try different things for different situations though. If our aim is to go as far in the CL as we did last season, then we can't afford to be this exhausted this time of the year.
Pogba for top player + enough money for another top player sounds sweet. PSG and Madrid will try everything they can to get him after the WC.
If we have to clamp down on spending then we could still do well
15M spending money + sale money
Menez and Murru free
Cerci
Pererya
Lulic
Ranocchia
Would at least improve our squad AND give us much needed flexibility. I would want Immobile too but that just isn't happening in the same Summer. Would be suicide from Torino.

There's a difference though, they didn't have to get rid of 3 top players for Bale. Fine, Ozil had to be sold but they had just bough Isco.
You're suggesting they would completely deform their squad for one single player. I don't know, it sounds completely impossible to me. They might offer some crazy money though, it wouldn't surprise me.
So assuming none of our first team players are sold, priorities considering the lack of tranfer funds:
2 CMs: A good quality back up mid. Kagawa on a free would be nice. someone with similar attributes to vidal would be great too, but short of switiching asa to mid, i can't think of any that would be affordable. I would also bring Marrone back to Juve, that way Isla can be sold and Padion can be vice Licht.
2 wingers: Berardi and Cerci in part exchange for Immobile
We need a solid Lb, as we won't spend 30 mil € for Shaw, and wolfburg won't let rodriguiz go, and lolito seems to be demanding, a ridiculous sum for ludic, i believe that Siqueira would be a good buy, and he won't use up a non- european spot...
