Building a squad to compete for the title

[usedtobeshearer]

Let's say these lot in charge are planning long term for the title and say over 4/5 seasons as that's how long I'd go for to compete at the top
First season who do you show the door
Let's go with 5/6 players

I was going to say, "That's easy!" But ONLY 5/6 players? 😂

Okay...

Carroll
Muto
Gayle
Atsu
Krafth

I'm obviously not including the players we've loaned, who are on loan or not in the squad...
