Dunk, Webster and White are probably the best CB offering outside of the top few teams in the league. Some great talent in Bissouma, Lamptey and Trossard. They're a midfielder, winger and a Watkins-instead-of-Maupay away from having a really nice side. They should be in no rush to sell anyone. Would love to see them hold onto White two seasons running and build on those foundations. If they lose a couple there is a lot of talent there I wouldn't want to see end up at clubs around us. And a left back. I still remember how people were upset at 'missing out' on Maupay, and how much better than Wesley he would have been! This season that debate might finally be settled, however Maupay is clearly very average at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would probably cost £80m at least I think. Their manager has just left though but I can't imagine the next one not fancying him. Then again I thought there was no way we'd get Buendia for less than £50m. Maybe they're in financial difficulty. Ah right yes he is a good player but he will be sold for way less than 80m if he is sold this summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s Sancho money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s Sancho money. De Paul seemed to have some kind of agreement with Udinese to let him go after staying with them for so long. 35m was not his fair market value imo. SMS might have a similar one I suppose but not that I'm aware of. He's worth ~80m to Lazio imo, their best player by miles whenever I see them. Unless they need the cash he won't be going anywhere for less than some figure around that I don't think. Must admit I'm not aware of their financial health really. He is the exact type of midfielder I'd love us to sign though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazio very nearly balanced the books I think one or two million lost tops. They might be actually looking to take advantage of Milan's problems this summer to lift a couple of their players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
