Dest or Roberto must go. Most likely Dest.

He's already out of the sqaud and if foyth is signed dest has no hope of making it back
He's gonna leave. Problem is there are no 20m offers for him. He better shit those 20m out of his ass if he knows wjats good for him and his career

How do they register Foyth without Dest leaving when we currently cannot even register Kounde and formalize the Alonso signing and register him without both Auba and Memphis leaving?
No one willing to take a paycut yet either.

Everybody understands what he's doing.

And what is Foyth? Is he even a rb, he plays cb most times and we're stacked in cb department. So what's the plan with Foyth cause Dest league assist last season (3) is even more than Foyth assist in his full league career so he definitely doesn't offer more attacking wise as a wing back, or do we need him as a dm

It is basically transformation to 343, With LB is acting as 4th midfielder and RB acting as 3rd CB.
Main issue is what happens after Xavi leaves? Fullback situation will be probably worse than when Xavi arrived

Does that work well for us, cause the Man City's, Bayern and Liverpool's have attacking wing backs and it helps their game. Anyways, we'll see how it works but there would probably be fallback issues when Xavi leaves

Not really, Pau Torres and Albiol are starting CBs for Villarreal. Foyth started all but one game as RB last year, season before that he mostly played as DM.
That's not really what worries me at this point but rather why the hell playing Alba as a 4th midfielder when he clearly doesn't have any required skillls to play that role. Only reason I can think of why Xavi wants to use him that way is to save his legs like he did with Alves last year. But then again it's stupid enough we're adapting our system to one veteran who can't run and now we'll do it for another one. FFS you do this for special attacking talents like Messi when they can't run anymore not for players on positions which primary task is to defend. If they can't do that anymore and they're of no use offensively as well then why even playing them?
Also, as I've already said in another post if we really want to use 3 atb would make more sense signing a left footed CB/LB than another one who can play as RB/RCB where we already have Kounde and Araujo.

That's even worse, cause he's not great offensively and I don't get why we're in for him. We need pacy rb that move forward, defend and can combine with wingers properly, Foyth isn't that cause Dest assist last season (3) is more than what Foyth has in his full league career (mind you, Foyth is 3 years older) so it's obvious he's not an attacking rb
But who?
