So we are supposed to be going for 3 signings in the summer and not doing any business this month. Something has to give, I agree with the above posts about forgetting a Striker, Cavani will do a 2nd season, Mason will come back into form and hopefully Martial will find his shooting boots, and in truth there aren't many options out there for those wanting a traditional #9, I don't see us getting Haaland or Calvert-Lewin.
In defence on paper the Bailly/Maguire and Axel/Lindelof partnerships look nicely balanced, I still believe Axel can become a top class CB, the big issue is we can't rely on Bailly to stay fit so not getting a CB would be a huge risk, but it looks like we might use one of the 3 signings on Trippier, which is massively underwhelming, he's fine as a cheapy January buy, but not as a key buy in the summer.
Against Burnley we saw what a #6 and #8 partnership operating at a top level looks like, but we know Pogba is inconsistent in doing the role fully and is likely off in the summer, while Matic can't play regularly enough. Technically we need to add one of each but the #6 is crucial, while the #8 role will be shared by Fred and McTominay even though neither offer a lot on the ball, so hopefully Van de Beek will get a chance there as well.
In attack I can't see us going for anyone outside of Grealish or Sancho, if we can't get either then maybe the 3 signings will be CB/RB/#6.
RB - Trippier/Aarons
CB - Kounde/Konaté/Demiral
#6 - Bruno Guimares/Locatelli/Valverde/Bentancur/Zakaria
WF - Grealish/Sancho
