I wonder how many of the current squad the current manager would have bought if somehow he had been able to make those decisions in recent seasons.

Is probably close to being the correct answer but a quality manager gets the best out of what he is. Some will respond to the challenge and surprise us, I suspect a lot will be out the door over the next few years though.

 

[Dymak]

Richarlison, perhaps?

Richarlison, DCL and Holgate are our best players.

 

[14towestham]

Almost certainly 0, distant possibility Richarlison was on radar.

 

[14towestham]

Its a very good point and exemplifies how tricky transfer targets are going to be. Brands must have close to zero credibility with Ancelloti yet is supposed to be finding players !!

 

[Milk]

Well it was said on commentary during the Norwich game that he was seriously looking at Kean

 

[Gilbert..]

Virtualy none. He must feel like he's gone from being a ferrari engineer to working at kwik fit.

Not really a fair question.

Carlo Ancelotti attracts better players than Roberto Martinez.

I think thats the point.

Depends. If someone came to him and proposed spending £1.5M on DCL and 60k on Coleman for the development squads he'd probably not have been against it.

Tbf, he's also currently working at a kwik fit station instead of Ferrrari.

But probably :

Pickford
Coleman
Digne
Baines
Holgate
Gomes
Rico
DCL
