I know you said decision making needs to be improved.... But most of the time he flatters to deceive, is greedy and isn't effective. A bit of a big time Charlie and seems a gob shit away from the pitch

That's true but he gets himself in those situations so often too. You see him miss a lot of shots that he has no business taking, but thats because he's in a position to take so many to begin with because of how relentless he is. He's in the 85 percentile for shots on target per 90, that's very good for his age.

I'd love to have a winger like that even with the frustrations that would come with it.
 
Eze
Cherki
Ederson
Jonathan David (bearing in mind he’s a free good quality option - I’d take Delap if funds available)

High-level CB

Working on the basis we send Tel back plus another player at the top end departing.

If Romero goes then 2 x high level CB
 
I've always rated Bissouma but eventually I thought it would be best to part ways but his performances in the semi and final has made me change my mind again.

If we are bringing in two CM's I would Still sell Bentancur and loan out Gray. Loaning Gray out would mean we can bring an older player like Palinha in with no worry about who eventually replaces him when it's time (providing Gray does well when loaned out).

Bentacur has also looked good in a more structured midfield. Honestly that think bastard 2-1-7
formation killed us, and the players

CL means bigger squad needed

Fabrizio Romano saying that Joao Pedro at Brighton might be available to leave.. Would be an interesting one certainly.. Champions league football makes that kind of thing more realistic than it was a few days ago.

Supposedly was involved in a brawl with another player in training.

Not sure if that makes it a no go but just a tidbit och information.

We should have got Wharton when we had the chance.

I mean, who stands by and watches that sort of talent go to palace when you can step in and snap it up.

Now his fee will be out of our range.

I wonder if we should take a punt on Hayden Hackney in a similar way. He’s not as metronomic as Wharton, but his forward passing stats are quite eye opening. He’s also just got a bit of a strut about the way he plays, a bit of rock star swagger. Could imagine him playing lots of quick switches out to our wingers rather than the two or three passes it currently takes to move the ball there. Questions are off the ball work and mobility, I guess.

Club needs at least one elite midfielder and also an elite wide forward. If we got Wharton and Mbeumo and no one else that would be an ok window. We don’t need 7 average players we need a few top draw ones.

Gray is never going on loan.

He kicks on big time next year.

No chance we sign another CB if Romero stays.
We finally have quality back up in Danso now.
Vuskovic has the potential to be ridiculous and needs minutes.
Then you have Dragusin/Gray/Davies who can do a job.
