I can't see us signing anyone. I predict FSG will use this summer to make money and reduce the wage bill.
Out
Karius 8million
Grujic 18million
Harry Wilson 20million
Lovren 11million gone
Lallana Free gone
Origi 20million
That is 77million and they will claim we cannot afford anyone.
I suspect if we get 200million for either Mane or Salah one of those will go as well.
Am I positive for next season?
Based on our performance s since lockdown, the answer is no.
The first 3 were out on loan so I'd be more than happy if they were sold.
Lovren is just terrible.
Lallana and Origi scored crucial goals but if we do sell all those players, I can't see Klopp sitting back and accepting it without any incomings.
I'd be happy with 6 or 7 like that leaving if it means 2 or 3 who actually have a chance of pushing for a 1st team place.
As doubtful as it is United and Chelsea will catch us next season, the season after they might if we don't pull our finger out. Werner and Sancho are just the types of players we should be buying to establish long term dominance and stay ahead of the pack. I'm reasonably optimistic but it will be such a shame if we rest on our laurels and let everyone below City have a crack at catching up.
ps Zero chance Mane or Salah will leave.
