Tomo 21,752 Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Hard to really think about the market until I know which system Alonso wants to play. If he's sticking to a back 4 a CB is an urgent need, if he's going back 3 then wingbacks are the priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d imagine James & Gusto will be more than sufficient on the right side regardless of the system. Left side is going to be the big issue though because we will really need to replace Cucurella who is likely off & decide whether Hato is going to be better suited to playing as a LB, LWB, LCB - again all depending on the system. Lewis Hall seems to be mentioned a lot this week. The Barco deal is also sounding like a formality. Both players who are versatile. For CBs - I would say at least one quality centre back will have to come in either way given the collection we have. I’d like us to get 2. If we go to a back 3 I think we would probably need to get 2 CBs in then anyway given the likelihood that players like Badiashile & Tosin are probably (& deservedly) goners & you will need to have options. Maybe we could get away with Fofana being put in as that right handed CB in a back 3 but still wouldn’t trust him in a pair. Granted our options will be limited. Plus still have serious doubts the recruitment will be any different to how it has been so we will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
