I would like to see us go in for Arnautovic from West Ham. Plays equally well from the left or through the middle and no doubt he would kick up a fuss to be able to make the step up to join us, just as he kicked up a fuss a year and a half ago to make a smaller step up from Stoke to West Ham.

Shove in a public £40 million offer to get the player's attention. He'll then go through his bad behaviour routine to try to get the move and we can eventually settle on a fee of about £50 million.

That £50m would be better spent elsewhere IMO. CM and FB look like the areas we should prioritize spending 50m on rather than a position (CF/AM) that we are already looking good in.
 
Thought I'd post this in here too, as it felt relevant to me. Mods delete if needed.

Which PL full backs would we swap an on-form pairing of Trippier + Davies for?

Shaw? Nah.
Young? Ew.
Mendy? fudge nah.
Walker? fudge off.
Alexander-Arnold? Nah.
Gomez? No ta.
Milner? Haha.
Azpilicueta? Nope.
Alonso? Drive me into a ditch.

We're pretty lucky all-in-all and are spacegoating our FB's unfairly at the moment.

Would have Shaw, Walker and Alonso from that list. You've also left Andy Robertson out who, while I think is slightly overrated in some quarters, has been very good over the last year.

Funnily enough, I thought Aurier was okay last night and Davies did well.

Whilst I appreciate the effort with the gif, Alonso is a class above Davies and I wouldn't say there's too much between Alexander-Arnold and Tripper, with the former having a higher ceiling given his age and athleticism.

Think this is a consequence of not watching a player every week, the Chelsea fans wanted Alonso sold this summer as he had a poor season last time, along with Moses.
