When Eriksen leaves we will have LoCelso, Dele, Moura and Lamela, as AM's so will struggle to play 4231 with only 4 AM's to cover 3 positions.
If we are using Eriksen's overseas trained player spot to buy a striker, we will need an HG player as the AM, and with QPR unwilling to sell Eze until summer, best candidate imo is Jarod Bowen.
Hull lost 2-1 to Chelsea today with BBC saying :
Top scorer Bowen, linked with a move to the top flight this month, was their busiest player in the first half and managed four shots on goal - more than any other player on the pitch although none of them really troubled Willy Caballero in the Chelsea goal.
The 23-year-old's best moment came early in the second half when he took on three players by himself before poking a shot just over the bar.
MOTM as well
Probably showed today that he can play in PL, especially with better players around him.
I would loan out KWP, be interesting to see what he is like after playing every weekFor me this is what we need to to do this week:
Sell: Eriksen, Rose, Wanyama, Walker-Peters
Loan Out: Skipp, Foyth
Buy: Striker, Defensive Midfielder, Right Back
Don’t worry we will never sign him, this smells off “I tried to sign bale but got Llorente”Don’t see how he would fit in our system so not sure I want this at all. We need players in their prime, hungry to grow and prove their talent. Man Utd buy expensive has beens.

For me this is what we need to to do this week:
Sell: Eriksen, Rose, Wanyama, Walker-Peters
Loan Out: Skipp, Foyth
Buy: Striker, Defensive Midfielder, Right Back
We will be replacing 6 players who won't play with 3 who will. No point having numbers if they are too shit or naive to make the pitch.
With Tanganga on the scene Foyth will never get a game, he is already better than him. Likewise with Gedson here Skipp will not get many opportunities, they both need to play elsewhere for their own careers to develop. The other 4 have reached the end of the line with us.
Bollocks. He's 30. Is Ronaldo a has been at 34? You'd all piss your pants with excitement if we got him and you know you would. This is just a defence mechanism you're all putting up in case of the inevitable disappointment.No No No No!! Wrong decision. Had his day. Backward step if we sign him.
Groundhog Day 3.0
He has a release clause if Fulham don't get promoted. That would dampen the enthusiasm for right now.According to the papers, we were looking to bring Mitrovic in from Fulham but were quoted £40m.
How do the “pay whatever it takes” crew feel about this?
I’d have taken him for half that. Tops.
When have we ever triggered a release clause? We’ve just offered a fiver for a 28 year old scuffer with a £60m release clause. Release clauses are pointless.He has a release clause if Fulham don't get promoted. That would dampen the enthusiasm for right now.
