[Anthony]

Would you guys be happy going in to the season with something like this?

View attachment 1120716

IN: Morata, Perisic and Lindelöf

OUT: Rooney, Zlatan

Not in the slightest.

 

[Theatre of dreams]

Hopefully with Atletico agreeing deals for Vitolo, Costa and some mexican winger that means Griezmann coming in Jan or more likely next Summer.

 

[Mike.]

Not in the slightest.

Needs Matic/DM in there and ideally a right back.

Not keen on Valencia?

He's 31 and while marauding, he's not a smart passing full back. Fabinho is

Would like Fabinho or Semedo.

We can do much better than matic. Matic, imo, looks washed up. He's a shell of his 2014/2015 self that dominated midfields at will.

Far from washed up! Still a very good player. Who would you prefer apart from the obvious Fabinho.

maybe just needs a change of scenery,and a manager that can get the best out of him.no doubt conte is a fine manager but not all players respond well to all managers they work for

Nainggolan for starters.

Nainggolan for starters.

So not a DM then.

 

[Equilibrio]

I'd like a sleek, controlling DM in the mould of Xabi Alonso, someone who can control the pitch and free up Pogba+Herrera at the same time.Kimmich(reconvert to DM)Anyone?

Isn't Pogba that guy? Deep Lying Playmaker with physique and flair?

I think that's the position Pogba wants to play in and Mou wants him to play in, just like Pogba does for France?

 

[Theatre of dreams]

Mourinho want a DM so Pogba can play more advanced and start and get involved in Attack. Help with goals and assists. Not sitting deep. That's why he wants Matic.

Weigl but he has a broken ankle
Verratti but impossible
Kroos but again almost impossible

 

[RedUnited]

Always felt Pogba/Carrick was more the Deep Lying Playmaker like X.Alonso/Fabregas and Herrera/Fellaini the the Ball Winner like Khedira/Matic in Mous 4231'ish formation

He was when it was a Pogba Herrera combination, but he wants Pogba and Herrera both pushing on. Matic allows that and protects the defence.

 

[Theatre of dreams]

God I hope we don't see Pogba and Fellaini in a 2!

Why would he wanna sign Griezmann then? Obviously Griezmann is not coming now so who knows!

Griezmann can play anywhere. We won't always play 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1
