Agree on the excitement front. If I walked in today as GM and was resigned to losing both Sanchez and Ozil, I would sign Malcom without an L and my first love, the little Fekir from Lyon. We lack buzz, and these two players, while not stars, could bring some flair to our game. Fekir would be my preference for an Ozil replacement. While not as sublime with the ball, he is creative, versatile across the frontline, and an incredible scorer with almost a goal a game in Ligue 1.
A link-up with Malcom could disrupt defenses a bit more than we tend to. Keep Jack and Ramsey in there, and there is a little bit of quality on display.
