I’m not overly sold on William carvalho to be honest. He could replace xhaka as a def mid to a certain point but I don’t think they would excel as a partnership what we need to do is find a partner for xhaka as I doubt he will be dropped(maybe if he has a poor season) we might look elsewhere. But we need a Kante type signing next to him someone mobile and more a box to box player carvalho isn’t that he’s a no fuss, keep it simple kind of midfielder and hasn’t got the passing range of xhaka and although big and strong in physical stature I don’t see him running the midfield. I think a ideal signing would be someone like gorezka(spelling) who we were linked with previously or Vidal but getting him isn’t conceivable. I don’t mind the mid pairing of xhaka and Ramsey but when Ramsey gets injured as per normal I don’t see the same dimension with xhaka and el nenes or xhaka and coq. I think if jack and one more mid leave only then we will sign a mid to replace them but it’s a shame we won’t be seeing santi any time soon.
