We need to spend a fortune on our attack bringing proven wide players in who can best and man, score and press. Will transform this side but far too expensive a kind of thing for levy to even be ambitious enough to try and do.
If we don't qualify for any European competitions I doubt we will be buying any proven players.

Probably double down on the youth policy.
Sign Dibling, Rigg, young LB.
Bring in Vuskovic and Donley from loans.

Players care about money. Pay them enough any they will come wether we are in Europe or not but we won't be doing that either
 
Why do we keep getting linked to left wingers???

We already have Son, Werner, Odobert, Moore, Tel, plus Madders and Richy can play there.

Meanwhile right wing we have Johnson, that's it! With Kulu able to play there despite it not being his best position .

Should be going all out for a left footed right winger.
 
Don’t understand why people keep talking about a LB signing. With the emergence of Spence I personally don’t think we need. We have now
Spence
udogie
Davies (assuming he extends)
Gray in an emergency
Donley in an emergency if he doesn’t go on loan

Depends on how many competitions we are playing in next season.

Spence definitely relieves the pressure but we still need another left-footed defender imo. One like Hincapie who plays LB and LCB. Davies is super reliable but he isn't the long term answer.

If your wanting a perfect sqaud which you need for elite performance then:

RB

Spence
Porro

LB

Udogie

Davies isn’t quick enough for LB, neither is Gray or Donley. You need at least 4 full backs if you are fighting and looking to win in multiple competitions.
 
With the form we showed at the start of this season and last before the injuries, and having strengthened the squad in Jan with quality backups, plus the young kids all coming through now, I genuinely believe we can challenge for silverware next season if we sign a top top quality tricky right winger.

For me that's the only thing holding us back now as we keep needing to pull someone away from their best position to play there (Moore and odobert from LW, Kulu from AM) or we play Johnson who is useless against low blocks.

A Bakayoko or Kubo would be transformative.

Agree, let's play the players in their best positions, 2 players per role. The problem with Spence also at LB is that he often needs to take an extra touch before turning back inside rather than hit a curling outside to in pass around his opponent to left winger. That is he has the ability to dribble around his opponent like last game but in situations where he can't do that we tend to get boxed in, that's why it's important to have a left footer there. Him and Porro for RB is just about as good a RB pairing in world football and allows Gray to go into midfield.

I reckon KWP. He’s not a starter but he is a decent backup and most importantly is a +1 to our squad due to CT.

Also he is free in the summer and we love a bargain. Means we can throw money elsewhere.
