Who Should We Sign To Replace Carrick?

"When you see the stats, it's clear that he's very important but that's also because we have only right-sided holding midfielder. That's what I am saying already in the whole of the season, that our selection is not balanced, and I want to restore that in the next transfer period. The life is not ending at 34, but for a professional football player, it's close by. That's why I have to handle again in that position."

So we are definitely looking for a younger replacement.

I like Schneiderlin but not convinced on him being what we need. I don't think he's good enough for what we need.

There aren't that many out there bar Pirlo, Alonso and Busquets.

So we may have to sign a different type of player like Carrick was to Keane.

Thoughts?

The player has to be able to receive the ball on both feet and be comfortable & naturally always look for the forward pass.

 

There's only a handful of players in Europe who are like this 

 

 

Wilshire - Injury prone & Weng would be on a long ting

 

Veratti - PSG will never release unless , Di Maria is involved somehow. Loves a Yellow card as well.

 

Busquets - Sergio may be tempted, won everything at Barca , Mata & De Gea here already

 

Strootman - VERY Injury prone

 

Bastian - old , would be a stop gap & would he be able to handle PL @ his age?

 

Gundogan - Seem's the most logical apart from his injuries.

 

Song - Propbably the least popular option on here but i've always thought he was excellent during his last spells with Arsenal. Barca & West Ham used him way more defensively. 

 

Javi Martinez - meh

 

 

These are established players , there are tons of young guys out there but if we qualify for CL imo quality is a must.
