The Case for the Attacking play

I highly doubt we're in the market for a 10

Up to 2 wingers and a CF most likely. A shame we're starting the season short in so many positions given the net spend and reported investment to aid our business that means we should have a sizeable budget still remaining.

Confident we'll get a couple more in though - just closer to the end of the window than we'd like.

I'm not really disappointed. We've just had so much too do because we've let it stagnate over the course of many years. I actually think we've done rather well this window to significantly improve the quality of the squad and the starting eleven. Anymore than what we have done so far has to be seen as a bonus rather than a expectation.
 
Looks like Ndiaye in, Richi out

So in Kudus, Savio and Ndiaye we will have 3 of the top dribblers in the league/europe. So gone from a ball carry heavy side, to a dribble heavy side with a lot of vertical passing.

Need to ensure we have a system to isolate those players against opposition
 
So we now have

LW - Marmoush, Tel
RW - Savio, Kudus, Ndiaye
CAM - Xavi, Maddison, Kulu


How we fitting them all in once they are all fit and ready to go? Tel's got to be off surely?

Yeah....it's called good passing.

A long way to go.

Marmoush will be playing CF as much as anything, unless Solanke in fully over his injury woes.

Xavi won’t be ready to play again until next March, Maddison has suffered a succession of injuries and heaven knows when Kulusevski will actually be able to start a game after being unable to even kick a football for over a year.

Kudus is going to need a while to regain sharpness after 8 months out, Savio clearly needs his fitness managing.

So I suspect Tel will be here until at least January to provide cover.
