I think we could have potentially budgeted better. I’m 90% sure we could have closed Trubin for 18-20mil. That’s basically an Arnautovic and a Sommer. Yes Sommer has been great, but he has 1 more season as our No. 1 tops. Of course then you have the problem of needing a striker, but you could definitely argue that we could have just ponied up the cash and gotten a good deal in the long run. We will never get him now with the crazy sell on clause.would you have given up Pavard for Trubin?
This. We had enough for Lukaku, and Pavard is not as expensive as the Belgium.I think we could have potentially budgeted better. I’m 90% sure we could have closed Trubin for 18-20mil.

For now there is no reason, do not blindly trust to our goalkeeper scouting team.
Well I do hope the trend of finding proper goalkeepers continues at Inter, you make it sound so easyI think it's easier to find a proper goalkeeper rather than a proper player like Pavard whom suits perfectly in your scheme.

With Trubin gone, the directors have paved the way for the future.Reports suggest that Inter have agreed a price with Athletico Paranaense for goalkeeper Bento ahead of next summer.
The Nerazzurri sold Andre Onana to Manchester United in the summer for around €55m and brought in veteran Yann Sommer as his short-term replacement. Whilst the Swiss goalkeeper has done well, he’ll turn 35 next month, pushing the club to start considering their long-term prospects.
In the summer, Inter openly stated their interest in Bento and sent in an offer for the 24-year-old. At the time, Athletico Paranaense decided to reject the proposal, but they appreciated the Italian side’s conduct and talks between the parties didn’t stop as the season started.
As reported by Calciomercato.com, Inter have now agreed a pre-emption right with Athletico Paranaense for Bento, on the basis of a deal worth around €15m. They have until a specified date in the summer to confirm if they’d like to formalise the offer or not.
The 24-year-old goalkeeper has already admitted that playing for the club is ‘his dream’, so the ball is now in the Nerazzurri’s court.
Big if true. Dude looks promising.Inter reach verbal agreement for Bento – report

And we should pass. We made the deal of the century and should leave it at that.I won't be surprised if Onana is available for the similar amount in the summer.
