I would fucking love this. Such a wasted player at Chelsea, scores goals and has work rate.

Lass Diarra wants out. Would be great backup to Dier and provide us much needed depth in DM. It would also provide more depth at CB as Dier could drop back without the worry of no DM.

Cheap and reliable with tons of experience.

If not, THIAGO MOTTA

I highly doubt, we're going for anyone that age range. If we are, it surely has to be someone who's a game changer and not a squad filler. The only one for the DMC I can really think of off the the top of head, that I'd want us to sign - who's outside our normal target of 24 or younger - would be Vidal. Not likely at all, but if he's linked with City just cause Guardiola is going why not. He looks a right cunt, but if his attitude is good enough to fit in with the squad, I would absolutely love it. He's excelled, and I do mean fucking EXCELLED, in a role similar to Dier's for Bielsa with Chile, and he can cover any number of other positions

He's a better DM than Dembele, Mason, Carroll and Bentaleb. So he's definitely an upgrade. He's also got CL and PL experience. The former we lack heavily. I think he'd be just what we need. Dier could learn a lot from him also.

Vidal is on 150k a week.
 
It's hilarious how many ex-Chelsea players cast out by Mourinho have proven to be excellent when placed in situations where their manager is not a total bell-end.
Half the reason I really want to go for him. Plus, he was always one of the only Chelsea players that didn't strike me as a total cunt, which is nice.

We really should raid Wolfsburg this summer. Despite their excellent performance in the Champions League, they're lower in the table than they should be - and players will start to get itchy feet. Being a Premier League club still seems to be a draw for a lot of players from the Bundesliga too (see Son).

There's always Draxler...

It's tempting, but with Pritchard and N'Jie essentially unused this year, plus Onomah growing into things, I don't know if we'll have room. I think we'll focus on a CM and a striker, but we'll see what the summer brings.

I feel like replacing Shurrle with Chadli is one of those things that would take us another notch higher. Proper depth, that.

Edit: but yeah, you're right about our priorities.

If we are going to raid any Bundesliga club, I hope it's Borussia Monchengladbach. Watched them a few times this season and have played some incredible football. Mahmoud Dahoud has been putting in some stunning performances while only being 20 years old. I haven't wanted us to sign a player this much since Eriksen was at Ajax.
