We're obviously not going to immediately sell the two guys who have just signed new contracts.
I mean “one of them”, not both. Otherwise we will have the following contingent in midfield:
- McTominay, Matic, Fred, Pereira, Garner for #6/#8;
- Lingard, Mata, Gomes for #10/CAM;
- Pogba as an undisputable starter in any formation (able to play any MF role).
That is simply too much if we add two more midfielders here (and also it is possible that Alexis may be used as CAM, too).
It doesn’t require one to be an Einstein to conclude that if we buy Bruno for around 55-60m, he won’t be a squad player, rather a starter (for main games). No need for THAT MANY squads alternatives then. And if we also buy one more midfielder in addition to Bruno? Why to have 11 players for 3 spots, it’s an overkill - just like it is an overkill to have 7 players for 2 CB spots (8 if we count fosu-mensah)
