I think he's ideally suited to going back there...
If he wanted 19 it would have been announced as nobody else is using that number.
I don't think we do though mate. We have Spence and VDV that can cover the role, with Dragusin to fill in should VDV need to go wide, or even Davies at a push to fill that LCB position. It may not be perfect, but it's not exactly a pressing need as we have cover.Is a great question.
I guess Spence for now but with the games we have to play, he can't be the rotation FB on both sides. We need a rotation for Udogie this window 100%.

If Porro took #2 then he could have 23 ... Michael Jordan's number.
Very similar style of play to Neto
Rotation with maddison looks better centralAnyone feels like we might be selling Kulusveski if we bring in another RW? With 2 RW, Bergvall, and 2 strikers it doesn't feel like he'd have a defined place in the squad.
I don't think it's as linear as that though mate. Solanke has been brought in to challenge for the starting spot, and to ensure we don't have a drop off in quality in the event of injury/suspension/substitution.Richarlison was definitely brought in to replace Kane since we knew he was leaving, but what I'm saying is that Solanke was brought in to replace Richarlison as our starting striker.

I'll concede that the jury is still out on Spence, but if he's matured in the way he appears to have, he'll be a very important player for us with his versatility.
That blocks Bergvall's path though.
Nope, I think we'd loan/sell Lo Celso and have Kulu as midfield rotation.Anyone feels like we might be selling Kulusveski if we bring in another RW? With 2 RW, Bergvall, and 2 strikers it doesn't feel like he'd have a defined place in the squad.
Bergvall looks more like an 8 to me and will take bissoumas place
Nope, VDV is a CB. Spence can’t cover both FB rotations . Gray could maybe cover RB and Spence LB but I see Gray as #6 rotation above Bentancur even
richarlison was clearly the club’s succession plan for Kane leavingRicharlison was definitely brought in to replace Kane since we knew he was leaving, but what I'm saying is that Solanke was brought in to replace Richarlison as our starting striker.
Agree and then players like Johnson, Richy and Kulu adding something diffI think he's ideally suited to going back there...
Son - Solanke - Eze? Up top would be epic!
With Maddison behind (or Bergwall) supplying through balls, we could well cause some serious attacking threat!
I want Eze SO much now!!
