Ok then.

It goes without saying that we need to strenghen the defence - and other areas too - if we're playing Europe next season. Otherwise we will crash in both the domestic league and internationally. So Big Dan and Fab will indeed have to get used to not starting every match no matter what.

I'd much rather see Lascelles leave than the two of them.

Not sure I want Maddison anymore. Been absolutely anonymous for months.

Was thinking the same myself, although he got stuck in last night, still not sure though.

We lack pace across the back line which is a concern. I’d expect us to look for a pacy right-footed CB to compete with Schär. We all know LB is a position that needs strengthening. We could do with a holding midfielder and a right winger too. Those are the positions I expect us to target in the summer window. 4 quality signings in those positions would take us to the next level.

My thoughts exactly. Would give Bruno a bit of a freer role, too, if we had a really good defensive mid. I also think we need a young striker who is beginning to make a name for himself but would be content with not being an automatic starter. Wilson has been just outstanding these last few weeks but we need someone pushing him when he has a fallow period. I think Isak will come to the fore as our main striker next season.

As for who, I'd take Barnes from Leicester. He'd be an upgrade on Muggy and Murphy, imo.
