If we sign Fabinho, then it's better to sell him. Having 3 RBs with TFM also waiting in line would be overkill.

Darmian can play on the left too. With Rojo out without new CB then Blind is more likely view ask one of the CBs. Kinda balanced in term of 2 players per position.

Sad to see him leave, but Ajax should invest this money into a new striker, left winger and defender. They should, but they probably wont.

They are getting 28million for him (35 m - 20% to Bayer) They should invest in a RW and a defender. There is also some brilliant Dutch Moroccan lad called Ziyech. Could cost around 15million now but you will sell him in the upcoming years for 50.

Well, considering we sold our only striker (except for youth products) I would argue a striker is also high on the list. Ziyech is a brilliant player but with the current selection of players I can't see Ajax go for him. It's good money, don't get me wrong but if Ajax uses it to fund the warchest they are quite franky said stupid idiots.

Borthwick-Jackson > Darmian. There were instances in which BJ was one of our better performers last season. Darmian plays like he'd rather be somewhere else. We should take a chance and sell him.
At any rate, I'd even prefer Rojo at LB to Darmian. Darmian's the worst player on the list.

Don't agree with this. CBJ had some good games for us, but some quite poor ones too - he has potential but could still go either way. Darmian is a higher calibre player and I think he could do better in a second season.

You maybe right. I did say, take a chance. I certainly would prefer Rojo at LB to Darmian. Darmian just doesn't appear to have his heart in it, and I don't like that.

I just think it was the style of play which it passive, positional and unnatural. I would prefer them to all of them given a chance to impress unless they are replaced with someone who was genuinely top class otherwise I'll trust Mourinho. Having said that if he wanted to get shot of any of them i wouldn't put up much of an argument.
 
I think Valencia/Darmian, Shaw/Darmian/Blind/CBJ are good enough options at full back. I would start with Valencia and Shaw. Quite an adventurous pair. The concern is whether our midfield will hold if we play an attacking front four with Martial on the left. We might need to switch to a 4-3-3 and maybe that's why we're after the Pog. Carrick, Pogba, Schneiderlin/Herrera/Fellaini would be a very strong midfield, with Mickey/Zlatan/Martial up top. Either way the energy levels of the full backs will be essential, and this one of the reasons we missed Shaw so badly last season. Before he was injured he was playing superbly, covering the whole left flank and allowing the player ahead of him freedom; exactly what we need. This is the concern with Darmian - can he do that?

Yeah, well I can't argue with that. I guess I just don't want to see Borthwick-Jackson playing for West Ham this season. In fact that's the last thing I want to see.
Of course if Darmian stays and knuckles down will be great. I'll be the first to admit I'm delighted to have been proven wrong. Fingers crossed.

Another? Seems like he signed one just last season

Basically he agreed to sign a 5.5 year deal in winter but since nothing is easy in France, contracts of over 5 years are forbidden so he had to sign 4.5 years and extend again 6 months later.
