Goretzka - apparently we have interest in him? - another player who's contract end's next year. Schalke are trying to get him to sign a new contract.

Should we be able to get him, would you be happy? To be honest, I've heard his name plenty but not really seen him play too much.

{Ed002's Note - The interest was as an alternative to Keita. I am not aware of any recent approach to his club or to his representatives.}

Oh I see thanks Ed002, must be recycled news.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - There is certainly interest in him from elsewhere.}

Perhaps he would be considered as a replacement for Can, considering we were planning on bringing in Keita and keeping Can. I also have not seen much of him, so perhaps someone with more insight could let us know what kind of player he is?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - He is not a replacement for Can. Liverpool saw him as an option for Keita. Other sides are keen - including Juventus, who want Can as well.}

One to write off in that case then, cheers Ed002.

I'd imagine unless Hendo or Gini were to decide to leave this wouldn't be an option.

I could see a wholesale changes in the midfiled. Hendo, Can and Wiji all would be loosing their place. Kieta is one of the names to begin with! I expect at least one more to come in!

I agree Harry, Kieta is incoming, I do believe we will get another in the summer, whether it be Goretzka is another matter but I do think somebody else will come in.

Maybe AOC will move into the middle at some point. Next season maybe? maybe maybe.

I'll go for Goretzka with or without Keita. I expect to lose Coutinho and Can. Goretzka-Hendo-Keita.

I'm sure the kid Grujic would be leaving if somehow Goretzka arrived.
I think he's had 18 months to settle now, next season he should either be played more regularly or sold!

Personally I'd like to see him get a run in the team this season some time - we'll never know unless he's given games, training well/ poorly doesn't tell a whole story.

Our midfield plan for next years is clearly Hendo-Keita-Coutinho/ Coutinho replacement. For the record I think there is nothing wrong with any of our midfielders in isolation. It's more that the three current midfielders are all so similar we have no variety - all box to box workhorses whose best work is done supporting specialists. That very much what Goretzka is as well and buying him would do little to improve our midfield without departures.
