I think this is why we should be going for a natural winger rather than another FB. We are rather dire there with only Bolasie (who might be crocked forever) having showed any effectiveness. If we get one, Holgate won't really be a liability anymore. We must have one or the other
Think you're looking at a class above ourselves with those 3 I'm afraid. I know we like to think we're a big club with lots of money but no sane footballer player is dropping from a CL team to ourselves yet just for money or in VVD's case choosing us over a CL team. We're just not ready yet to compete for these sorts of players.
I really don't want us to chase after these lot all summer in the friendzone before realising it's August and we have Jags and Williams starting. Let's take recruitment step-by-step. Once we - hopefully - break the Top 4 then we can go for these. And whilst you might think "but that could be years off, they'll be elsewhere by then" you have to remember that in 3-4 years there'll be another batch of players just like the ones you want. Football is cyclical after all.
Remember it's also the World Cup next year and moves can sometimes not work out and ruin someone's chance of making a squad.

I don't know, Monaco would suit his style of play the best, but who knows the team he'll choose.
No a couple of days ago you just had the Everton wants to push through the transfer media articles. The problem with Dendocnker is that, unlike Youri, he doesn't do of lot of appearances before the media so you'll read less on him.
Hope Koeman scouted Pablo Fornals whilst watching Malaga.
RK has already said that he does not want a very large squad, rightly so, he does not want to have to deal with players who are unhappy because they are not being played... the very reason we were able to sign Schneiderlin.
The consequence of this is that players need to be flexile and be able to at least cover a couple of positions other than their favourite.
When considering the players we sign this summer, this must be borne in mind e.g a right sided central defender than can fill in at right back, the same on the other side.
A striker that can play up front but can also play wide , a midfielder that is versatile enough to play different roles depending on what is required.
Strangely.... Rooney would be a great fit from that point of view....if he still is good enough to play in the premiership of course ?
He has played up front, out wide in midfield and knows all of these roles well.

I'd argue that's not a problem but a huge plus.

Your underating sessegnon mate, in both Klopp and Guardiolas system he'd get games.
He definitely has quality Zat.
His movement is top-notch but honestly that's where any comparisons to Naismith have to stop.
He's class on the ball, tough in the tackle and links the play brilliantly. Apart from Davies, none of our midfielders offer any support from deep. That needs to change.
You forgot Koubailly
Why sell Jags for peanuts when you could get 20 m for Funes
Both will only be back up.
Either it's 2 new CB. Or one new one and Williams.
Pennington is also highly rated
That would give you 2 new CB
And Jags Williams Holgate and Pennington as back up
Not a snowballs chance in hell on Mendy
Too many CL clubs interested

We won't sign three players who are all natural central players mate.
We have way too many needs in other areas.
Dendoncker and Klassen make perfect sense because the combined fee for both of around 30-35m will be paid for by McCarthy and Cleverley being sold almost entirely.
You will probably find we will try to do that in other areas also, sell and replace using those funds for higher overall quality.
Deulofeu will be sold for another wide/forward player - maybe Ztge Malaga lad, maybe Barkley for a creative player like sigurdsson for example.
And cb and keeper will see us spend what money Koeman is given.
Only Lukaku leaving alters that strategy IMO. Then it will be simply mental as we will need to throw all that at finding 2-3 strikers hoping one works out
In 3/4?yrs maybe not straight away
