Zinchenko and Tierney on the left, White and Timber on the right, consider Timber can play on the left as well, and Partey can cover RB in urgent.
If moving Tomi and Balogun allows us to get a premier midfielder, go get it. We have enough defense so far.
Inter are broke. Just sell Tomi and Balogun elsewhere and chuck 45m at Barella.
I like him but his value isnāt equal to two of our players.
forgot which team offered 65m in January (or earlier this summer) and got rejected.
Value of both Tomi and Balogun are just about right, I think
That all looks good on paper but I have concerns over Zinchenkoās fitness. It means we probably default to starting Timber at leftback over Tierney and then canāt really rotate White out of the side.
Tomiyasu offers flexibility and doesnāt really change the way we play to the same degree Tierney does.
I guess maybe weād still have Kiwior to play leftback as well.
Oh yeah, I just totally forgot Kiwior, thought he was just a CB.
Yes, Arteta tested him as LB during US tour.
That could be it.
Tomi came here for around 20m and has been brilliant. 30m value at least. Balogun should be fetching 40.
We donāt need to be doing Inter any favours.
Plus they need money. Barella probably goes for a cut price.
We arenāt buying him anyway.
If they really want players
They can have Jorginho and Tierney.
sometimes it is not about who is doing a favor for whom, it is about what we need and what we want.
of course, it is just a rumor at this point; but if Arteta thinks Barella fits to our system and wants him, why not?
Didnāt we do a favor to Chelsea for Kai, and do a favor to WH for Rice? We hugely overpaid them.
If we are talking about 80m value for Barella, we simply should be back out.
but if we are talking about 5m differenceā¦ like I said, why not?
Inter donāt need to sell Barella to balance the books. Itās a massive transfer for whoever wants him.
Winning the Coppa Italia and reaching the CL finals as well as selling Onana not far off ā¬50m is more than enough for them to get through.
loan options, not bad, but we are pretty stacked up front already.
Would you take him for a nominal fee (whatever youād qualify as ānominalā)? Idk that he fits our style much.
After his last season I donāt know what Vardy offers to us. Heās done. Had a good run.
Well even if itās a sketchy source I guess itās good that the club arenāt just counting on that knee to hold up.
Itās harsh but another campaign where he misses major time means we need to look elsewhere.
Elite hold up play, amazing facilitation and incredible individual skills
Why else would he be linked with us
Vardy can do oneā¦weāre not going to rescue hos career after he snubbed us back in the day. Deserves to be back in the Championship!
I wonāt pay anything for him, may consider just salary.
Still, he is a true #9 and I wonāt say he is completely useless.
Why? Indykaila is where I get my daily dose of news
Vardy is fucking finished, wouldnāt take him for free.
Iād rather Nketiah than Vardy in 2023.
We were linked with Benjamin Henrichs(Leipzig) and Ben Johnson(West Ham) after the signings of Rice, Havertz and Timber.
Be interesting to see if those names pop up again. Henrichs specifically is a very versatile player. Iām not too familiar with him to be honest with you but he seems to have been regarded as a wonderkid previously. Heās 26 now.
