Rumour that Capoue has a broken leg and/or ankle. One signing down for the long term already.

Very much so but lots of games and no quality cover for that role again now.

Simmo, I see us having 4 capable holding midfielders if needed! Sandro, dembele, paulinho and vertoghen. Granted not the prefered positions but if worst comes to worst we have cover. I see us playing with 2 of sandro dembele and paulinho. Then a no 10 eriksen. And two wingers behind a striker. Almost a cruyff diamond! But again that's just my opinion and I am not in anyway AVB haha

Well playing Dembele as a holding player would at least excuse the fact he produces nothing else. Could be the next Huddlestone, technically gifted but never kicks on. We need to find a way to release Paulinho a bit more when possible as we're going to be desperate for goals from midfield. If Soldado scores the same number as Bale then we were still short of goals last year so it's the same old problem. We need a Rafa-esque impact and guile from Eriksen and a Bale-esque wing-impct from Lamela to stand still - no pressure.
