I see us linked with young players all the time and you always hear these reports of Robert liking these young guys and apparently Lucho would approve.
But the recent trend is we also seem to also follow a lot of older players who have a lot of "Experience" that would hit the ground running and would help us win more titles quicker. It works but there's a risk that you sacrifice long term planning and you are stuck with a aging squad and with the new Stadium and Sponsor issues it's not going to be pretty.
This summer window will be key, I read it multiple times before we are looking for a young CB and young LB and a Forward. I would be pleased if we get rid of the dead weight and we find a good Mascherano successor for the LCB spot and a good young backup LB for Alba.
We are getting Denis Suarez back but I'm not really sure what to expect of the backup for Suarez. It will likely be Gameiro, going by the amount of rumors in recent weeks and yeah.... the RB position is puzzling what's the deal? a lot of us thought perhaps Vidal will take the reigns but it seems like he pissed in Lucho's cereal.
I Just can't see Alves playing the Majority of the games anymore next season so who's going to pick up the slack Roberto? or will the Ghost of Vidal make a return.
