Romero looks up to it yes.I do think Romero, Gil, and Emerson all look like good signings. But really we’ve left ourselves so short attacking wise. Just look at what our bench looks like with just Moura and Bergwijn unavailable. Absolute poverty.
We are desperate for a starting level RW, a creative midfielder, and a backup striker. I know Traore divided opinion but I still think he’d be ideal. We are desperately lacking players who try to make things happen and play on the front foot. It’s why a half fit Ndombele sticks out so much, because he’s so progressive in his style.
Still feels like there’s so much to do in the “rebuild”. I think we still need:
- Doherty replacement at back up RB
- Ball playing center half, preferably left footed
- Box to box midfield in addition to Sarr
- Creative CAM
- Starting RW
- Back up striker, as always
Gill looks at least one, probably two seasons away from being able to cope with PL matches.
Emerson has all the markings of being a dud to me. Positionally clueless, poor at progressing the ball forward, average defensively.
