We are talking to clubs about dele , Madrid passed he was offered

dele has regressed the last two seasons it’s as simple as that , did his body suffer like many others from five years of Poch intense football or did he get carried away with his image , I do not know

the Celtic boy or ings are 40 plus million , we need a central defender and mid , there are Gona be some sacrificial lambs the next two weeks , it’s pretty clear Jose. Wants 4-3-3 as well with two runners off Kane

Hope the lad ends up winning the CL wherever he ends up

There would be in midfield if he got his head on straight. Got the vision and legs for it, but it's all flicks and half hearted tackles with him these days.
He theoretically could do a decent job there, but it's not where he's naturally at his best and he'd be competing with Lo Celso and Ndombele for a starting spot.

And:

Rose , foyth and Ccv are the other 3 on way out , there are no plans to sell Moura and sess as of today But at our club there are only two untouchables and they are son and Kane
Serge, Lucas and Sissoko should be out too. I'd rather keep Dele but i dont know where he fits in the side.

Always thought a 4-3-3 could suit us best. And then there is no position for Dele.
The midfielder should be someone who can work hard and win some battles, as well as put in some creativity. Not easy to find I guess.
I still think Lo Celso---PEH---Ndomblele could work against teams who sit back, with Winks / Sissoko swapping in against tougher / more attacking opposition.

That's only 5 players for 3 positions though - we need 6 to cover for injuries and fixture congestion. Could be 6 next season, if Skipp comes back into the fold, but there's definitely scope to add another quality CM without ousting someone (other than Alli).

The ITK makes perfect sense then - sell the players who are surplus / don't fit the system and keep the ones who add strength and depth.

Lo celso is a cert he just has that bit of quality . Can pick a pass long or short and with licence can be a real threat in final third . Not to mention he likes a tackle and is pretty robust with it

Gedson.

You can’t have 6 central players who all expect to be in the 18. One is going to have to be either less experienced, or lower quality,

Just read a snippet about PSG interest in Dele

Edit. Just seen it was previously posted in Dele thread:sleep:

Dele by far the most expendable of our big hitters. If moving him on means we can plug that last couple of gaps in our squad then so be it. Would wish him all the best though if he were to leave.

He’s just signed a new contract at Villa, unfortunately.

Bleet..

We've heard from multiple sources, all saying the same thing. Bale and Reguilon were both opportunistic signings, the kind we've been told for years that we'd be ready to make if the opportunity arose (a la VDV). They were NOT the areas where Jose's told Levy we need improvement and as far as Jose's concerned, our business is nowhere near done.

That’s handsome. Basically we’re still in the market for a striker, CB and creative midfielder. Could be the most significant window ever
