But thinking about it, if we were lucky enough to offload him, why would we look to replace him with another striker who doesn’t score goals?
It makes no sense.
More generally, if we’re sticking with a 4-2-3-1 formation, we need three players to improve the starting X1:
- a left back
- a midfielder to play as one of the “2”.
- a “ number 10”
After that, see where we are, maybe another couple of loanees towards the end of the window?
Maybe a “Dom Ball” type that can cover RB & defensive midfield.
It could well be him that is signed.
2 midfielders & a left back are key.
Get them right and we have the basis of a decent starting X1.
Maybe some Ryan Fraser money will be available?
