Seems to be a lack of quality DMs available in the market this summer. Palhinha? Luiz? Both have their risks. Not really seeing or hearing any credible links to any more.
Plus we seem to be stockpiling CBs.
Does this mean we aren’t in the market for a DM as we are going to be playing 3/5 at the back?
How confident would everyone be if this is how we went into the new season, with our midfield options still being Bent, Biss, Sarr, Berg and maybe Gray?
3 at the back would still leave us vulnerable to not having a proper DM.
The 2 best 3CB teams of the EPL era have been Poch's Spurs & Conte's Chavs..... Both relied upon beasts like Dembele & Kante to have the impact of 2 men in order to not get over-run in MF (and in our case we played Wanyama alongside Moussa too!).
