Another issue with defence is who is actually get able and would improve our defence? At centre half I can only think of Upamecano. Koulibaly is touching 30, everyone else I’ve seen us linked with wouldn’t improve us to the standards we want. Do we try and strike a pre contract with Leipzig and Upamecano?
I can see Lindelof being dislodged by Axel very quickly once he is fit.
i genuinely think Oles recruitment has been good. AWB was very good last year, yes he can improve going forward but I don’t think you’ll see many complaints about him. Maguire has been an upgrade on what he have and crucially, unlike our other centre halves -doesn’t miss 25 games a season. Fernandes speaks for himself, Van de Beek looks a good acquisition at his price, James has been hit and miss but probably what you’d expect from a championship player.
We need to upgrade Lindelof. He’s bullied too often
We need a left back whose going to be fit!
we need a right winger...
Pressure rises on Woodward this week as all of our rivals are clearly strengthening meaning we’re in that cycle, yet again, of falling down the pecking order similar to Jose’s last season!
