Would £50m plus Emmerson and GLC work for all parties? Simeone’s been linked with both. We seem happy to be rid of both.I really like Joao Felix, would probably be far too expensive though

I haven't paid any attention to Joao Felix recently but that seems way too much, Emmerson and GLC could bring in 20m each, so we'd be paying 90m for him. Not sure he's worth thatWould £50m plus Emmerson and GLC work for all parties? Simeone’s been linked with both. We seem happy to be rid of both.
2. But partly coz it looks like the lesser name LCB will be what happens anywayIt's probably very unlike that we do, but I would still be keen to see what people would prefer.
- Get a bigger name LCB with either Raphina or Richarlison
- Get a lesser name LCB with both Raphina and Richarlison
I'm aware that the finances for both aren't like for like, as option 2 would still be 20-30m more.
You know what... Lucas to Everton or Leeds as a sweetener and Bergwijn out the door to make a front 5 option of Kane, Richarlison, Son, Kulusevski and Raphina would leave us in a RIDICULOUS situation when it comes to options to make the most out of.
Raphina and Kulusevski competing on the right, Richarlison and Sonny on the left, Kane and Richarlison competing up top in a season that will span 50 games plus a mid season break. Liking how versatile that would be and how it would massively take advantage of the 5 man sub rule coming in.
like that it looks good, until you break it down5 attackers for 3 spots
4cms for 2 spots
5 wbs for 2 spots
5 cbs for 3 spots
3 gks
= 22 players
2 free spots left, unless we solve the club trained riddle?
Eriksen and Tanganga would fill it out nicely, though Japh really does need a full season loan somewhere.
I fear the 150 million might only be allowing us to do our biz before sales ,ie getting in players early. I hope I am wrong but I am sceptical that we will spend 150 million nett,If we truly have £150m net spend as indicated by ENIC’s cash injection, why can’t we afford both Raphinha and Richarlison?
Sell Lucas to Everton!
He plays on the right not the left (Raphina)Raphinha covers LW though, and Son can operate at CF imo. Many times during matches he's basically at CF with Kane CAM.
The choice, if Kane is injured, is this:
Son Richarlison Kulu vs Raphinha Son Kulu
But if everyone is fully fit, Raphinha has much better chance of breaking into our starting XI by challenging Kulu. Rich is poor at RW, and realistically will never be better than Son/Kane.
Why do you think Raphinha can't play in a front 2?
I think it’s more that he’s a tremendous player and he wants him in his plansof cousre he says that, with a new contract we can sell (if we wish too) and get some money in, no new contract we get nothing in
I'm not saying Conte wants to sell or keep him, As a manager or owner you would always say they are in your plans & sign a new contract as it keeps the player on board and keeps their value upI think it’s more that he’s a tremendous player and he wants him in his plans
Pretend it’s a 2 year extension and sneak a zero on after the 2
