The defence we've got is potentially title-worthy.
Ramsdale might be a bit loose. However, I think we can afford him.
Swoop for someone random but surprisingly good, a Bentancur or similar, let's say Danilo turns out to have been a Christmas stocking-warmer, and add Felix, and we could give the Premiership a shake.
Any technically gifted young forward will thrive in our current team. Actually improving on Martinelli, Jésus and Saka will be bloody hard.
Reading this made me smile.
Can’t believe we are in this position, yet here we are.
For me, while our defence is fantastic, it needs another addition to keep holding at bay. Plus we need a winger or two.
Free transfers
He would spell Gabriel at times or even play at LB. He and Tomiyasu would provide fantastic versatility.
Trossard’s work rate, versatility and emerging consistency would be a sensational addition next to Martinelli and Saka.
Trossard can play both wing positions, up top in a pinch, and false nine.
Money Transfers
I would want both him and Felix, but if money is tight I would choose Bellingham. We all have seen him. Leadership. Pace. Power. Work rate. Technique.
The sky is limit for him, and in that “8” role he would be the ticket.
Fantasy if money is somehow still there
Felix
We would definitely have to let someone go to get him in, but the potential is so hard to pass up.
Potential. That is what makes it such a huge gamble. For someone who gets ragdolled in La Liga, he would have to think quicker and pass quicker so he doesn’t get abused in the PL.
