His defensive contribution whenever he's played has been pretty good this season, not Naby Keita levels but eclipses Ramsey whose worked well alongside Granit in the 343

We've tracked him and Vrjalko for a long time. Since they were in their mid teens.

elite talent ihmo. has a chance to become the best CM in the world in a couple of years. His game would be lethal in the premier league too. one of my favorites and would be best suited in a 3-4-3 system since that extra cb would give him the protection he needs.

He reminds me of Felipe Melo. He'd be interesting because you could play him as a b2b with Xhaka or as a DM with Ramsey.

With sanchez most likely gone

New striker
Ramsey-ozil
Kolasinac -xhaka-kovacic-bell/ox
Back 3
Cech

Our play in the middle def improves but we would need a complete striker upfront to make it work.

Why the hell arent we in for this guy? we need a talented midfielder to replace cazorla, searching around; in terms of technique and play style this guy is the closes thing to cazorla i have seen that is affordable. Clearly has potential to be world class, if this guy goes to liverpool well all be wondering why we didnt go for him, hell be another coutinho.

We need Kovacic or Seri this summer. Does anyone honestly think we'll see a fully fit Santi for a prolonged period again?
Kovacic wants out at RM, he's struggled to get a starting spot over the last two years which given the depth of midfielder talent they have isn't surprising. They've now gone and bought the young Spanish kid from Betis that's been getting rave reviews in Spain Dani Cellabos (excuse the spelling)
We could build a midfield around this guy, if he became available he'd have major sides interested. United, Liverpool have been linked recently & Spuds.

Quality player but if we buy him are we selling Ozil or Ramsey because how are going to fit everyone into the midfield???
