He struggled in his first season Granted but he struggled with injuries that killed any momentum and he showed the ability that made him such a hot property(not to mention what made him such a good signing upon announcement) toward the end of the season
Lucas Biglia £15mil
Leonardo Bonnuci - £35mil
Andrea Conti - £21mil
Andre Silva - £32mil
Hakan Calhanoglu - £19mil
Mateo Musacchio - £15mil
Ricardo Rodriguez - £15mil
Franck Kessie £6mil loan (£32mil perm)
Donnarumma - £1mil
Bornini- Loan
Can almost make an entirely new team from that
Donnarumma
Conti - Bonnuci - Masacchio - Rodriguez
Biglia - Kessie
Silva - Calhanoglu - Bornini
Morata/PEA/Belotti
Just missing a striker now and they have a new XI that could win the league!! How mental is that
Donnarumma is not a signing - he was already with Milan.
They are also in talks for Renato Sanchez....ain't life easy for them
I agree it seems unlikely to me, but that is what is being said. I guess the fact he came on a free might explain his wages being high? But still it seems unlikely.

Told #whufc have tabled a third bid for #scfc Marko Arnautovic. Value not clear, but more than £20m of last bid.
I am not sure that I am a fan of the low ball offer and then creep it up until we get to a deal, I understand sales and have been involved in many negotiations but I think that in the footie world, there is a real value in making a player feel wanted.
Nobody else 'seems' to be in for him, which is a bit ;hmm
Hernandez would score goals for anybody, IMO, so would be happy with him.
We do need to increase the personality and standards of the squad. I think with a lot of the players we're linked with, that is clearly an area Slav wants improving. Arnie, Zab and Hart are all proven players and probably quite influential in the dressing room.
I looked at our side last season; Kouyate, Obiang, Feghouli, Lanzini, Byram, Cresswell, Ogbonna, Calleri, Fernandes, Masuaku, Nordtveit, Snodgrass etc and didn't really see anybody capable of lifting a team or that others look up too.
I think apart from Reid, Fonte, Collins, Noble, Sakho and Carroll, we don't really have any 'hardened' players with obvious leadership qualities.
There are probably many better LW's out there than Arnie. But Slav obviously sees something in him that he wants in our squad. He is the sort of player who puts in performance worthy of the prestigious MOTD analysis roll, but won't exactly do that every week. But how many LW's do that every week. It's a position where you can often be isolated and you are judged by scoring AND assisting standards. Not to mention tracking back. Often a thankless task in a mid-table/lower half side.
