3-4-3 works for Chelsea.

Appoint Allegri and sign an energetic all-rounder like Naby Keita, play him alongside Xhaka or Ramsey and we should be good to go under a manager who has experience playing with three centre backs.

Not sure we'd be able to accomodate Özil properly, though. Unless we go 3-5-2 and use Özil as an attacking midfielder at the expense of playing with only two forwards in Perez and Alexis.

Roma's Greece defender Kostas Manolas, 27, who is a target for Arsenal and Manchester United, wants to get £12.5m more from his suitors by removing the release clause from his contract. (Mirror)

This guy is a no brainer, cheap, a natural Kos replacement, Greek like Sokratis and Dinos so could make a great combo, a more finished article than say De Ligt and cheaper, and the best player we can get in our price range because we will never be able to spunk 100m on Koulibaly.

Mustafi out, Manolas in, Kos on the bench for 1 more season, Holding on the bench, Chambers used as 5th choice, plus as RB and DM cover, Dinos loaned out, sounds good to me, almost makes to much sense for us.

I do wonder though that if pairing Manolas and Sokratis whilst playing out of defence might be a problem because from what i know about him, hes more of a Defensive type, not a ball player (i might be wrong?), we almost need Holding there to do it whilst these 2 break legs, but i wouldn't grumble if we bought him, i'd be over the moon.

Roma duo Edin Dzeko and Kostas Manolas are likely to move to the Premier League this summer, according to Calcio Mercato.

The Serie A side look likely to miss out on a Champions League place next term which will reportedly cause a number of their star players to look for a move elsewhere.
