Id sell kerkez, Isak, Frimpong and Wirtz in the summer.
I would give Macca a new deal and add a DM LB and RB and sign araujo.
I don't think Wirtz will make it with us. Kerkez is a weak link and Isak well he is a great goal scorer, but he is just not a great fit for us.
Play 433 Barcola, ekitike / Rio / Munoz on the flanks and someone like Koumas or buy Evanslison who can link play in the middle
Macca szobo and trey in mid with new DM and gravy in rotation
Jacquet aruajo as CBs and get new RB and LB. Renew vvd to play the role model / mentor.
Pretty much want Kayode as RB but LB no idea.

Tsimikas is out of contract so is Gomez so who replaces those? Evanilson is a poor man's Firmino.

Sell Wirtz and replace him with who? I still think he's one of the best 10s we could of signed. Dom is not the answer and its becoming more and more apparent that rightback could be his back long term position.

I don't expect any forward sales other than potentially Cody if he continues to feel as unsettled as he was in the summer. Chiesa is a given.
Midfield could be interesting. In theory, the club could be open to offers for any of Macca (for contract reasons), Grav or Szobo (for tactical reasons). Nyoni is progressing nice and Endo will be out of contract, so there will be a spot that opens up there. Hopefully Lamine Camara will be one incoming.
At RB, I would be surprised if they weren't open to offers for Frimpong and with Gomez being out of contract, that would open up a spot for a RB signing even if you make Araujo permanent. (you all know I am manifesting Daniel Banjaqui here:).
At LB, we will have to replace Tsimikas. I have no idea who that would be though. Carra says we like Joaquin Seys. We will get a chance to watch him against us in a few weeks time.
There might also be some movement at GK. Not sure anyone is convinced by Marmar, so he could be sold. If Alisson doesn't renew with us, which looks most likely at the moment, we might need to dip into the market to sign a senior GK to give Brughmans a bit more time to settle at the club.
So GK, RB, LB, CM.
Hopefully Alisson and Virg get contract renewals.
And if one of Macca, Grav or Szobo move on, possibly another CM.

Harry, are you still sore that Flo rejected your club? I got to say, pretty sure had Wirtz signed for the criminal enterprise of a club you actually support and we missed out, you'd be here cackling about how we missed out on him and how FSG were poor owners.
IMO, Flo ain't getting sold anytime soon and if anything, we will be signing players to play with him to get the best out of him and the rest of that forward line, by the looks of things.

Yes yes what a great idea to get rid of all our best players.
Nice one Harry.
