THIS.... The point all along.

4 comps:
5 CMs
2 AMs (+ Kulu)
Fair, I can certainly see the logic in bringing in a DM.

My view-
You could split our midfield into:
AM: Maddison, Kulu, GLC
CM: Bentancur, Bissouma, Sarr
(Bench option) DM: Skipp

I personally would feel comfortable with the top 6 there as our midfield options, 6 players covering 3 spots, with Skipp reserve.

EH?

PEH has played in 21 out of 23 games this season.
True, but he's not started too many.
As I said, buying 1-2 quality forwards unlocks Kulu as a midfield option, so I'm not saying we should be lighter as a squad overall.

3 CMs (+ Skipp) for 2 spots in the most demanding role area of the field?????

That's poor balance.
