Not necessarily a striker. We need a goalscorer to make the most of Btobbey's fantastic holdup play. Either a number 10 or a goalscoring winger. Not that either of those type of players are readily available. I like Talbi and believe he has the ability to fil one of those positions eventually.

Jarrod Bowen if hammers go down. Don’t tell me he doesn’t fit the profile, the profile is fluid.
London lad .Inlaws won't fancy their lass moving north.

Born, went to school and started his career in Herefordshire. Dad was a farmer and semi pro according to wiki.
If he’s more focused on London life than his footballing career then I don’t want him anyway.

You're only allowed 17 non home grown players, which is everyone except Ballard and Rigg in that.

If that’s the case I can see it being a problem for us over the summer. We’ve bought very well from abroad and have now apparently expanded our overseas scouting to take in more markets.
He's married into a London centric celebrity family, they ain't movin up norf
He'd be absolutely perfect for what we need, except he's old and on massive money.
Tbf Talbi and Sadiki are still considered u21 for next season so wont count towards it yet. But it's definitely something we need to keep an eye on.

100% this.
Enzo is like a new signing in the middle.
Really rate Geertruida and hope we sign him permanently.

I think his mind will be made up, sadly.

Worth noting that those counting as under 21 for the season registration don't count towards the squad.

You know who would suit us down to the ground... John Stones. Leaving City in the summer. Would be a superb option and even provides a bit of tremendous cover in the holding role.
Obviously the major caveat is whether his body is just completely finished.

Yep, writing Ta Bi off after 39 premier minutes is pretty quick even for the SMB
Top quality right winger. Needs pace, strength and the ability to run beyond the full back to balls played in behind to let us play more direct. Should also offer a bit of a goal threat. I know that is asking for a lot so this will require big money.
Good quality, young understudies for Xhaka and Reinildo. Hopefully, they can grow with us and eventually move into the first team roles
Back up at CF with physical presence who can do what Brobbey does if he is unavailable or is tiring in games.
Backup LCB, and we''ll need another RCB if we don't sign Geertuida (which I still think we should do)
If we sell other members of the squad they'll likely need replaced too.

We need players who know where the net is!!!! Lucky we’ve been solid at the back most the season
