Realistic wishlist: Reus, Varane and some young fairly unknown defensive midfielder.
I think we'll sign a big name forward, a very good central defender and a more unknown central midfielder.
Do people see us selling a CB? I can't see it personally. Mertesacker would be the most likely if someone goes, but I wouldn't rule out the possibility that he stays until his contract expires in 2017.
No, Gabriel was our defensive buy and we're not changing anything there come this summer.
Varane is about as realistic as Messi and Ronaldo. No chance we get him.
Reus would be stupid to turn us down for any club, he would fit in here perfectly.
Yeah, we just have to hope he prefers London to Manchester, Barcelona is banned, Madrid hopefully full.
Gotze

Ramsey's not better RW than Pedro and Higuains a guaranteed goal scorer.

Depends on what Real Madrid do. If they for instance sign Hummels or Laporte, Varane could be available.
I really think we have to go for Bale if he's available this summer. We can't let any of the other english clubs get him.
The idea of Bale at City or Chelsea is a bit intimidating.
Yeah I do not like the idea of
Bale - Fabregas - Hazard ------- Costa ------
Pretty damn scary, for sure.
I wonder if we could grab Götze from Bayern if we put in a monster bid.
There was stuff in the papers about Bayern sending him back to Dortmund for Reus. But that sounds a little far fetched to me. Will be interesting to see what Bayern do this summer, a few of their best players are quite old and some quality sitting on the bench.
Prefer Bale actually if we really want a monster bid.
If both are available this summer I think Gotze will go for a lot less than Bale.
Götze is a better copy of Nasri, all the talent in the world but no balls, shit work ethic and a dodgy character.
Messi plz
Gotze's performed far far better than Nasri did bar a 6 month patch.
If he's available then no question we should be looking to buy him.
