2 more signings

Rafa is apparently after 2 more signings once Muto is across the line.

A number 10 and a left-back.

Both of those make sense to me; number 10 we only really have Perez who plays in that role and we could do with a dedicated number 10 rather than a dropped back striker. Left-back we definitely need as we currently only have Dummett there, we've used Roberts in pre-season but he's mainly a winger and i think he needs to go out on loan rather than sit around our bench.

For that left-back role we're looking at Joe Bryan of Bristol City, contract out in next summer so they're happy to sell this window but they want £6 million - which we're less happy about paying (surprise, surprise). Wolves and Hammers also allegedly interested.

Rondon deal is still a possibility but will depend on if we decide to let Gayle be part of the deal and if he wants to go to Baggies.

We've needed a left back for years and dummet would be a much better player if he had competition of Ã* good standard

[Jammy89]

Agree with that.

Mind you i think we need a right-back to. Yedlin is alright but Manquillo as the back up, not great at all.

Nothing really in youth either, not since we lost Gibson to Everton.

And I'd be disappointed if we don't bring in a good striker

Obviously a striker has to be a must.

The fact that we have to say about 2 other positions and then a 3rd has come up though shows our lack of depth
