But the only tiny possibility we have is if we go early and we go high (fee, wages etc) - of course even if we were able to pull that off (low probability) he'd probably go the world cup and snap all his ligaments!

Otherwise, fuck knows, hopefully the expensive group of super experts we have assembled, coupled with our aquired data business will actually unearth something more useful than past.

I imagine very few people will move before the World Cup and if they do it will be big signings for those clubs at the top of the food chain (Champions League big hitters like PSG, Madrid etc) so its going to be another nervy, potentially frustrating, long drawn out summer.

Our goalposts have moved, we are a more attractive proposition than we have been for a long time, especially if we do make Europe so we will have to wait and see if that plays out with more successful attraction of talented players or not.
