Our defensive frailty cost us last season.

I don’t think we can be sure of Schar being available as much this season, Botman out till Dec/Jan, even the likes of Lascelles could be out till next year and at this stage his level of ability is probably not even at where we want to aim for this season (Top 5 given no games in Europe)

I’d love to see a RW, I’ve been loudly a fan of getting better than Miggy, but I think not having some quality depth to defence will cost us more than not having a better RW.

I think we need someone in this week, Schar hobbled off on Sat night… Howe apparently not concerned but just goes to show how light we are… imagine starting the season with Burn and Krafth as our CB pair… capable for sure, but not the platform of Botman and Schar (which was a big part of the season we finished 4th)

I think we should offer our best and last, today, and if not accepted then move on… but for the sake of experience in the Prem and being fit to play now… I’d go up to 60m for Guehi, even the 65m, because we know Eddie likes to slowly bring people in… so having experience of the league will help on that front… anyone coming from outside the Prem will take longer for Eddie to name on the team sheet.
