To be fair I’m not too bothered who we sign this summer, just so long as we don’t cheap out
I’ll still follow with interest who we are linked to etc but I won’t get hung up on losing this one or that one. 2.5 years ago we wanted Texeira, 2 years ago Gotze, last year Brandt, we didn’t get them and we still signed sh*t hot players and I’m (pretty) sure we’ll do the same this year.
My wish list being realistic is probably Jorginho, Pulisic and Fekir. (To be honest I’ve not seen much of Fekir but I’m reading he’s out of the Coutinho playbook so yes please.) I’d take Origi back into the squad. I know he’s not loved much here but I think there’s a player there and in a free flowing side (rather than one going into a relegation play off in Wolfsburg) I think he’d be an able deputy for Bobby. Beyond that I’d love a top class keeper but Karius has done well and I don’t think we’re in a place to spend £70M+ on one given the tweaks needed elsewhere.
Beyond that I think we’re fine. I don’t think we need a CB, VVD, Lovern, Matip and Joe Gomez are a very decent 4some IMO.
