And we're on the verge of a league and champions league double. We are absolutely full in most areas except fullback, the striker department being our weakest by a margin.

Agreed on points 2) and 3), but it's not official nor even reported by a reliable source that we bid for Benzema.
I'd love him to come, but it looks highly unlikely, at least this year.
