Their centre back Yoro is highly rated if anyone fancies some scouting. Haven’t tested him much so far.

The other one impressed me more, dont know owt about him mind, age etc

Diakité?
Yes, very good.
I’m sure I heard he’s only 19, or 20

Edit. He’s 23

The Lille right back definitely looks decent. I'd be looking at Arblaster from SheffU; gets a good write-up in many quarters (perhaps, with the Archer business to be done, we can get in early on Arblaster).

Is there anyone at the likely relegated sides we'd have a look at?

I'd have Doughty from Luton for the right price.

Lille definitely have some excellent young defenders there. We didnt get a sniff. Even their keeper looks good.

You can get one on QVC. Currently retailing at £69.99. Does chicken and chips perfectly.

Could definitely see us bringing Archer back.

Honestly think that we should be looking at a much higher calibre of player now to be honest unless there is a really special talent at one of those clubs. 

The budget for the summer is yet to be revealed, but to keep on improving we need top end European and international quality players.  I don't think we need to do a lot of business in the summer, so might be able to bring in some real quality.

An athletic, ball-winning central midfielder is a must for me.

Arblaster at Sheffield United and Mengi at Luton.

Doughty is listed as 7mil on TransferMarket (I know). People are talking about shipping out Carlos and letting Lenglet go too, so if the price was right I think he'd be a decent addition, although obviously you'd be looking at bringing in someone else there too, preferably a RB option.

There's a young lad at Burnley too, though he's out injured at the moment.

He always seems to be injured.

He'll be off to Madrid or Bayern, I think. Very highly rated.

Those teams have a million CBs already. Danger is he goes there, doesn't play and loses momentum and then has to be loaned out.

I'd take Kim if Bayern want to sell him already, was brilliant for Napoli.

If it wasn't for the fact we think they've got some kind of buy back clauses, does anyone really want Archer or Ramsey back? They haven't had good seasons, for various reasons. It's not like they've left and done a Cole Palmer.

No, but I do want Philogene back.
