Had a chat with my step dad earlier and whilst it is agreed shifting the deadwood is a must, do we really want to be just focussing solely on recruiting ‘young and hungry’ players this summer?
We need an overhaul. Everyone knows that. But I think we need a bit of experience (esp with Adam and McCleary leaving), just one or two especially in midfield and/or attack, because at times we’ve looked devoid of ideas when we go on the counter. It just hasn’t flowed. João is a presence, but with him out of these past few games it’s showed nobody else really stood up.
As much as it will probably be shot down (yes he’s had injury problems) I do feel we are missing someone in a similar ilk to Forestieri that makes people stand up and take notice; who can be a constant threat to opposition defences.
Swift / Olise / Ejaria etc all looked class at the start but really tailed off. By the end of the season they didn’t really stick it up the opposition at all.
Im not saying let’s spend a wedge on experienced has-beens. But you need some quality pros in this division, we cannot underestimate things next season by taking punts on all transfers.
