Why sell Bennacer for money? Weaken 1 part of the team to strengthen another? I don't see how opening up 1 hole to plug another makes us a better team. Then who will play next to Kessie? Meite? Tonali? Krunic? Come on now....
Kessie and Bennacer should stay and be the pillars in the middle. We need a CAM and RW and that's where we need to invest....but not at the expense of another starter. If we need to raise money, sell others. Sell Romagnoli. Sell Samu. Sell a whole host of other players. Sure, they are not as valuable and we won't have an easy time selling. But do not sell the backbone of the team. Bennacer maybe struggled after his injury. He hasn't been his old self. But nobody (apart from Kessie) consistently performed this 2nd part of the season. We all saw what Bennacer is capable of before his injury. He is pure class. We are not going to have an easy time replacing that. Certain players should not be available at ANY price if we want to keep building. Bennacer is one of those.
