I honestly don't think Mitrovic has the temperament to sit around watching Kane every week. He'd go stir crazy.

I really don't get the clamour for an out and out Kane back up, when we have Son and Alli (who I think could easily be pushed up to play a 9/false 9 type role.

The ideal solution, IMO, would be to splash out on someone like Pepe (if someone else doesn't grab him) or Fekir. Completely different players, but both can operate as wide forwards/AM's but both can also play as 9's. And both would be quality in either role. Then you don't get the "back up" bench issue as you can keep them happy. There are cheaper alternatives too.

Nobody who has an uber 9, has an uber back up 9. Liverpool don't really have an uber 9 at all and they are top of the league. They've just got a bunch of interchangeable forwards.

We need to stop obsessing about "back up to Kane" (not you necessarily just generally). The way to go is versatile forward players.

Agreed. I do like his game though.
 
Out: Aurier, Wanyama, Llorente, Vorm, Nkoudou, Jansen
Out if Forced: Eriksen and Toby
In
1 Rb: Wan Bissaka
1 LB: Telles or Grimaldo or Tierney
1 CB: Seems like it will be Andersen
2 CM: 2 of Diawara, Berge, Ndombele, Kovacic, Grealish, Grillitsch, Tielemans, Soler
2 Attackers: 2 of sessegnon, brooks, brandt, haivertz, maddison, bergwijn, isco(??), Bruno Fernandes

Chances of this happening: 0%
 
We should make offers for that Kean lad from Juventus. A young speedy forward with potential. Apparently been subjected to racial abuse from fans and may want out.

35 million and 2 tractors to Papa Kean (Moise's dad is legit involved in a feud with Juventus over two tractors that he claims that the club promised to buy him for keeping the kid in Italy) should do the trick.
