Vidal or Pjanic bud.
Zero chance of prying Vidal from Bayern....Pjanic I thought we'd been linked to in the past.
Ovie Ejaria.
But I think Pogba, Marchisio, Matuidi, Nainggolan, Witsel, De Rossi, Schweinsteiger, and a few others are also already fit into the world class version of that category. Whether any of them are achievable is a different question.
Wijnaldum is a pretty adequate player but nothing like that. Another attacking-minded CM with limited defensive capabilities. Not a bad scoring record whatsoever for a CM though I will say. £25m for another CAM seems pretty nuts to me though when we've got other positions that need to be filled and when you can get higher quality players from outside the PL for that money.
Moussa Sissoko is more fitting of the "Masch" type player though. Would rather we spent money on him or someone like that rather than Wijnaldum to be honest. Not the best attitude, but it's not like Masch had/has a great attitude either.
