Are they de Jong, di Ligt, Isco and we miss these because the value increases each week? Or are they Dier, Dele or Foyth?
I can only assume the former (pure conjecture, but, hey, what else can I go on?).
My suspicion is we want the £60/70 million players, but we face the tricky conundrum of wages and agent fees.
So, for example, what do we do about Eriksen?
a) Fingers crossed, we do everything in our power to keep him.
b) We stump up for a legitimate prospect e.g. De Jong
c) We buy someone not so established, and hope for the best.
I don't think Poch is quite as keen on C. Or rather, he will always promote youth but it can't be our *only* strategy.
