Daniel Levy's history
Possibility of a free transfer to save funds
Club could do with another LB/LCB

The Goat (yes I am referring to myself in the third person like the cunt that I am) declares this deal officially ON.

Between Bergvall and Kulu we are well covered for the creative role, seriously how many 10s do we need?

Buying Ese just doesn't add to anything whilst fixing nothing.

Bergvall is 18 and not really sure he’s a 10 yet but he’s more creative from the 8. Kulusevski as a 10 much better as the right side of the 3 CMs so his left foot is middle of the park.

But generally, I agree, winger, LB are the 2 main properties imo
 
Definitely stronger squad than last season. In defence ... VdV as option at LB, Spence re-rehabilitated (we hope), and Dragusin for the full season, and up to speed. And Gray as an option. We've only lost Emerson, so overall a fair bit better. Poss Philips is closer to first XI quality, though not sure on that.

MF ... lost clogberg, who was actually decent last season. But gained Gray, Bergvall and Moore.

Attack. Solanke should be a a huge improvement in our chance conversion ratio.

Then we have the South Korean guy coming ... don't know much about him.

We still need another attacking threat ... Eze type.

I’m thinking of the South Korean kid as a youth player like Lankshear when we signed him. At best we send him on a European loan in January

Our squad is marginally better as it stands

But with more fixtures , no honeymoon period etc , I can only see us doing worse than last season

I'm optimistic. We won't have the extremes of last season but an overall progression.
Think we will concede less (don't ask me for specifics it's just what I think) and I think having a regular target up front be it Solanke or Richarlison will be really beneficial.
 
Really surprised we haven't strengthened again at CB. Of the top 6 we easily have the least depth in that position.

Woolwich have Saliba, Gabriel, Calafiori, Timber, Kwior & White. We are 2 injuries away from Dragusin-Davies.

So surely we need at least one more, ideally LCB who can cover LB. Wish journos would push Ange on this. What's his thinking?

LWB more important - Davies gets loads of stick but i would be happy to have him as a backup LCB behind VDV & Dragusin

A central defensive midfielder more than anything else. Blindingly obvious.

"Well covered" by two players with basically no demonstrable experience as 10's.
One of which is 18 (and defines himself as an 8) in his first year in a new country!

Kulu? No demonstratable experience as 10?

What the fuck are you talking about. He played number of times there last season for us.
And has done so before in his career.

We ain't gonna have two exactly same players in exactly same position who are identical.
