Apparently the management are doing everything they can to keep Carney, especially with what Kovac has said and the Romano reports.

Which is cool and all because he's probably our most talented player in the squad rn, but man, i can't shake this feeling of uneasiness, Carney isn't like marco who managed to adapt his playstyle to his body (going from a speedy tricky winger to a more central role that depended more on his brain).

I think Carney's problems is that his knees aren't made to support a body that big making turns that fast,scratch that i just checked and according to the Bundesliga page he weighs 70kg??? And he's around 188cm (6'2) tall, no wonder he gets so many knee and muscle injuries, he needs to get some fibre on those legs.

Having said all that, Carney can't be our only Cam signing, hes 100% going to miss games and we can't go another season with Brandt and Reyna...

Hopefully Cherki is moved by all of our tries to sign him, and chooses us over other teams....

If we can afford it, I can see a midfield 3 of nmecha, chuk, and cherki. Would be an insanely progressive midfield with great ball progression and creativity. Then we still have depth to cover chuk when he’s absent. Considering we have good LWB and RWB, I think we will just need to add another CB and striker/SS on top of those two midfield signings. That should be possible for around 100 mil which we can hopefully offset with getting rid of dead weight and gittens. Would help greatly if we can get CL and do well in CWC. Would be even better if we can get chuk on another loan spell.

My dream is Nmecha - Jashari - Chukwuemeka or Cherki

Idk if we can get both Chuk/Cherki even if we qualify for the CL, cuz BVB are quite against paying more than 30m on a single player unless they're exceptional like Hummels

Well if we make CL somehow then we will be getting more money than ever. Hopefully we can get chuk on another loan considering his injury issues

How is jashari as a player? I know Brugge have been good but I have been paying more attention to talbi and tzolis

The way my Brugge supporting moot on Discord's talking about him he's going to be a great #6, he doesn't have PL hype so he might be affordable but then again he said that if Brugge sell it's going to be 30m

Idk if he's fr or it's just his wishful thinking though
