Peh, celik (who looks perfect for us) and Wilson (a proven back up striker we’ve needed for years) would be a great start. None are superstars but all are addressing weaknesses in the squad

follow that with a left back and a creative midfielder (if Ndombele leaves) and it’s a perfect window
Left back won't happen. JM loves Davies, and is keen to bring Dennis Cirkin through as well. I'd say a CAM is likely as we have shown how threat-less we are if Lo Celso is taken out of the game.
 
I am quite happy with PEH, a player who is a former captain with a good defensive midfield skill set. We certainly need a player like that, Winks, Lo Celso and Ndombele in particular are not defensive players and Sissoko is too limited a player for our midfield. It’s a boring signing but an important one I think.
 
Why haggle over money for Aurier, just get rid. 15 million is good enough.
Because getting 5 million more is a shit load of money, even for our club.
Also imagine if the club states the budget will be only 50 million net spend this year due to lost income, but then proceeds to not bother about 5 million in the Aurier deal, that's 10% of the budget gone because of careless mismanagement.

Yeah I know negotiations could fall through because of this, or players would only arrive on deadline day is also a possibility, but I feel the club should always try to get the best deal, football player values are arbitrary anyway.
 
For me a good window would be.

Sell

KWP
Lamela
Sissoko
Aurier if he is not comfortable being second choice
Amos and other players who aren’t going to make it

Buy

RB X2 (unless Tanganga is deemed decent cover)
PEH
Callum Wilson
CB
Eze or another creative attacking player
Specialist DM (PEH is more 6/8 hybrid)
 
should absolutely send Sessegnon out on loan if the rumours of signing an attacking Winger are true... he is wasted as a wing back and would be keen to see how Cirkin deputizes for Ben.Davies
 
Why did we sign Sessegnon if we don’t think he’s good enough to get minutes in either an attacking or defensive position? With Europa League, especially the qualifying games, there will be opportunities for him.

I don’t want to send him on loan to a weaker league, he won’t learn anything there. He already played full seasons in the Championship. He needs to start adjusting to the highest level not drop down again.

Different manager with different ideas.
