“You can pick three players that are currently playing in the Premier League to improve our team. But you can't pick from Man City, Man United, Liverpool or Chelsea. Who would you pick?”
Absolutely no regard for Nuno as any players would last significantly longer than he will.
Traore - because I want a player who is able to pin opposition in their half rather than having to sit in ours.
Watkins - because I want a younger striker who is able to put the ball away when presented with a chance.
Ndidi because I want some one able to boss the middle and I can't have Kante
Hopefully the combination of these three will reduce the pressure on the defence a bit until I can pick 3 more players who don't play for certain clubs.

I've gone for Rice, Tielemans and Barnes.
Massive fan of Declan, despite him playing for West Spam. He gets better and better and would improve just about any midfield. I do like Pierre Emile but Rice is a better player overall. Tielemans has that bit of quality to create or score from nothing that we so desperately miss. Barnes has the potential to be ridiculously good if he keeps on improving at the rate he has done over the last 12 months or so. Him and Son alongside Kane, and I would tell Harry that if he drops deep he doesn't get his wages, would be unreal. You could also play Barnes up top with Son and have Kane playing as a number 10 where he can do his thing, threading balls to both of them at his best.
Lloris
Royal
Sanchez
Romero
Reguilon
Rice
Ndombele
Tielemans
Barnes
Son
Kane
If only!

I laugh, but I'd take Lingard right now. Whatever you say about him he has a goal in him, which our midfielders don't.
Lucas Digne, James Maddison and Wilfried Zaha
Seeing that there isn’t really a CB outside of that top four that would significantly help us is…sobering. Remember when there were great defenders up and down the PL?

Each to their own, but I think Soyuncu has looked awful for a while now. Both for Leicester and Turkey. He always looks a major mistake or red card waiting to happen to me. Solid two other choices though.
Tielemans would be my first choice, 100%. The ability of our players to not wet themselves under pressure and show competent passing ranges is laughable. He's good under a press, technically proficient, adds goals from midfield (which we badly need) and isn't defensively awful. Immediately a huge upgrade
Saint Maximin the second. For me he's a better Adama Traore. Numbers aren't spectacular but he plays for Newcastle. Instantly a proper upgrade over Bergwijn or Lucas. Only worry would be he's a bit injury prone.
And finally Digne. Yeah, a left back. I really simply don't rate Reguilon, I find him to be a terrible decision maker and his delivery really isn't consistently any good. Tries a lot and is tenacious but very meh at both ends of the pitch, Digne is a different level. He's also a good set piece taker which we badly need.

St. Maximin, Neves, and Rice would be my 3.
Sarr is a good shout.
Rice, tielemans and Pedro Neto
Watkins is 26 I think? Up until recently I thought he was about 21/22. He certainly looks it.
