£20 Mil plus £1 should do the trick. Would be class if we actually did that and peed Leicester off haha

4-3-1-2 is what it looks like on paper but the way elneny can push up..front three will drift out wide ...ozil free role
----------------------------------------------------------------------
so ozil and sanchez both running around everywhere, welbeck up high not doing much, no win play at all, cant see how this wont work
----------------------------------------------------------------------
4-3-1-2 ?!
As good as Kante is he's not the profile we need. He's a b2b player and we just brought Elneny. We clearly need a controller/a played dedicated to dictating the tempo of our game.
Although I won't believe the Xhaka rumours till it happens, there is a lot of logic to why we would be interested if so. That's the profile we need.

Don't forget it's coming that time of year now where season tickets need renewing so we will be linked with all the top players.

I agree with this.
Kante is class, but I don't feel another destroyer is necessary.
The Xhaka rumours make sense because not only does he have the ability to break-up play, but his distribution from deep is very good.
He's the sort of player who could quite comfortably partner any of our other midfield options, IMO, and would give us a lot of flexibility as a result.
I'm not saying Kante isn't good technically, but he's not the sort of player who pulls the strings from deep, and I feel partnerships with players like Ramsey or Coquelin, whilst very high-energy, may lack a bit of guile.
