I've omitted the obvious Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar etc......this list is FIFA's list of the top 100 players in world football. A lot are from us, Chelsea, United etc...so got rid of them as well.


I've tried to keep it to foreigners and under 30 yrs of age....as the likes of Xavi, Iniesta etc are on the list as well.


Let's say for one minute, we sell off 6 or 7 players in the summer. We have to also increase our HG players due to losing Milner, Richards, Lampard...


Who would you pick from the list, for how much would you think they would cost us and how do we supplement them with HG English players? Realistically.


Let's imagine we MUST buy 3 English players to replace those above.

Told ya, i'd buy Bale, Clyne and Barkley + Hummels and AN Other (De Bruyne or Pogba).

5 in, 5, 6, or 7 out...i'll let you work out the maths, but i reckon that's doable.

What about Schneiderlein?

I've always thought he was a very good player...works hard for the team, good on the ball as well. Decent shout.
