How Dry should our Powder be?

I still think our midfield needs work. So I wouldn’t mind.

I did read an article on Ramsey and the positions he takes up on the left hand side of the pitch are very similar to Udogie as the inverted left back. Made me wonder if we are looking at him for there (and as a midfielder).

6: Biss, Bentancur, Gray
8: Sarr, Bergvall, Ramsey
10: Maddison, Kulu

It's pretty great depth. Also doesn't hurt to add another homegrown option.

Gio and Skipp out. Devine loaned.

Yep. A lot of the chatter was that we had 3 signings lined up (Post Gray).

So would make sense for the remaining two to be RW + LCB/LB.
Though I also wouldn't be surprised if one of them is more of a goalscoring midfield type (e.g Ramsey). Ange seems to have a hard on for this profile.

I would just go Eze and Chiesa and sack off the LB until Jan (though really we should be able to do all 3).

Eze is release clause or nothing though

Eze and Chiesa would be £80m max between them.

Sell Lo Celso, Reguilon and Solomon (hopefully atleast 10m between them) and that takes our net spend up to £120m.

Which is pretty much on par with last season.

I think getting rid of pretty much all of our deadwood. Bringing in Gray, Eze, Solanke, Chiesa as well as integrating youth and Bergvall would make that a pretty damn good window tbh.

My biggest concern is that none of the 6’s listed provide great protection to the back 4.

In seeing too many runners from MF not being tracked and too much space to play through once our press is beaten.

It hasn’t been high on my list but if there’s a top class 6 out there who’s comfy on the ball and provides that shield, I’d love to see them come in.

Lower priority than a wide player of course but still….

Yeah we ultimately need to improve on Biss at 6. Maybe the view is Gray could step up.

I reckon Bentancur and Biss are shifted next summer and we bring in a bonafide 6 to compete with Gray.
