Young
Valencia
Smalling
Jones
Mata
Sanchez
Lukaku

All need replacing and have done for years

Valencia and Mata might be on their way in the Summer but re the rest suspect we'll be saying exactly the same this time next year.

he is on a free come the summer, his mother surely does not want as much as we are paying Sancez,, would add greatly to our midfield.......

Would be happy with this.

DDG, Serge, anybody

Young, Dalot, Lindelof, Bailly, De Ligt, Rojo, Shaw, Tuanzebe

Matic, Herrera, Pogba, Fred, Neves, Fosu, Gomes

Lingard, Sancho, Rashford, Martial, Chong, Greenwood

Think we could win the title with that team. 3 big young signings, promote some youth, and ditch the following:-

Valencia, The Scottish Player, Jones, Smalling, Mata, Sanchez, Lukaku, Darmian

Send Pereira on loan to Wolves in exchange for Neves.

Wouldn't advocate throwing the CL but really not that arsed about it at the moment. Focus on re-establishing our identity and winning the league. The rest will follow 2 or 3 years down the line.

Be lucky to get top two ffs. Zero strength in depth there.

State of the defence. Midfield is still gash.

Awful thread.

YHBR.

It may not win the league next year but those three Switchers signings would be great work this summer

Think we need at least five in though.

Very ambitious re lack of Jones

I know...

Let’s be honest with ourselves, if we get 4th place there will (probably) be very little investment in the first team.

If Leicester can win it with Vardy, Mahrez and Kante, and Liverpool can challenge with 3 or 4 top players, there's nothing stopping us having a go with 3 quality signings to add to Pogba, Martial and Rashford. City last season probably the only one of the last 4 or 5 winners you could hold up against our great sides, Arsenals invincibles or early Chelsea.

I think we'd all be happy with a real challenge and tangible progress domestically after the past few seasons. We can worry about Europe later.
