no south coast double dip with Mitoma?
I am keeping an open mind as I think some great players may become accessible on the market by May, and then over the course of the summer window. I don't think we should go for left back though.
KingslandBarge Mitoma is top tier, but Kvarat is Ballon dor tier

Agree with this. Finishing in the top 2 would surely open up some possibilities that just weren't there at the start of this season. And I mean that both in a financial sense and with regard to our "attractiveness" as a club/team
samthegooner What's everyones dream combo of 2 CM's, 1 winger and a left back?
Bellingham + Caicedo + Fresneda/Ait-Nouri (depending on how we view Tomiyasu) + ???
No real obvious right winger out there. Nico Williams maybe? It looked like he was having a breakout season early on but it's really fizzled out for him lately.
Antonee Robinson, Kvaratskhelia, Bellingham, Rice.

lorddulaarsenal Antonee Robinson is more Tierney than Zinchenko. Need to look elsewhere I think.
Rice and Osimhen.
We lack a bastard in the middle. Osimhen has good combination play and puts every ball that enters the penalty area into the net. I think that’s the next phase for the team. He obviously isn’t as skilful as Jesus or Trossard at 10, but he will not collapse the offense the way Nketiah did, and he is a significantly better striker than our Eddie.
Claudius — Osimhen is the dream my man.
I’d sell Nketiah and Balogun in a heartbeat to facilitate that. Could push Jesus to LWF to get him minutes too.
Osimhen is freakishly good. A real panther
Romeo Lavia - yep or na?
lorddulaarsenal Absolutely yes.
Think he has all the tools to play as a lone #6
Big fan of Lavia but let's just say we get Rice this summer, is there really room for someone like Lavia with both TP5 and Rice in the squad? I'd rather a MacAllister type than a more defensive midfielder if we are able to sign Rice.
“I’m working so hard to make sure that I achieve my dream of playing in the Premier League some day but like I said, it’s a process and I just want to keep on this momentum and continue to do well.”
Osimhen on his future.
We could run riot with him here.
MistaT feels like a United or Chelsea gamble
Just arrange a deal where Balogun goes to them
lorddulaarsenal what is Balogunner’s upside? Do you think he could be top winger/striker?
I’m not too sure with him to be honest. I’ve cool finisher and good technique - not convinced he’s dynamic enough to reach the very top mind

Houseboat link in here to Timothy Castagne from Leicester as backup right back. It's starting people. Get ready for some fun.
lorddulaarsenal Don't know anything about him. @jones please report
lorddulaarsenal We are in the market for a RCB/RB. Get prepared to be linked with a host of them.

Looks just the ticket.
We’re being linked with athletic, fast and powerful players. I recon we want to play a high defensive line and recover the ball fast. Hence the links to these defenders, Rice and Caicedo
Great link. It is probably cheaper and better to be able to play White first drop at centre half than to sign another centre half, we can do that by bringing a guy like this into the rotation who can also kick on during those inevitable periods when Tomiyasu will be down.
Looks like a decent punt talent wise as well.
