We need players who have not won anything and hungry for success. Most importantly, we need a strong Italian base in our squad. Well, it's just a fantasy. Not too sure if this will ever happen.

That's near impossible to do tbh. There's way too many changes in the squad to be able to get all the negotiations complete in one summer. Also too many changes to the squad is detrimental and will only serve to make Leonardo's job more difficult. Ajax are a good example of a club that's suffered from this.

Also I don't see why you'd want to replace players like Dinho, Pirlo, Ambrosini or even Flamini, as they've done really well this year and have added some consistency (particularly the first three) to our side.
