With the January transfer window approaching and stories like this:
It feels like we're in the middle of a rebuild squadwise. With that in mind we are faced with a few questions, do we go for youth or experience; quantity or quality and what positions need to be addressed most urgently.
Keeper isa question mark. I'm a fan of Onana but he's made too many mistakes and there are legitimate question marks about his technique. I would not spend in this position yet but can understand if some might.
Defenders. We need reinforcements especially if we're moving on from Varane. I don't want us giving Maguire a new contract either so it could be time to move him on too. A couple center backs and a couple full backs wouldn't be ridiculous.
Midfielders. We need physicality and technique. Someone more experienced with a skillset similar to Mainoo.
Forwards. Also a definite area of need. Martial needs to go and we need to buy a couple forward players preferably with the ability to play out wide as well.
So I would go Jan window : A 40-50 million forward player, one defender and one midfielder for about 30 million each and do something similar in the summer with a higher budget and possibly one more player being brought in.
