Shadow Puppets Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 I think the RW position isn’t something we’re focusing on. Howe has already said he expects Isak and Wilson to play together, which leads me to think he’s planning a first choice front 3 of Maxi, Wilson and Isak. Almiron and Fraser are perfectly able backups for that. CM is almost certainly the priority. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely think it’ll eventually become more of a straight 4-3-3 like Tripps Schar Botman Targett Bruno Shelvey Joelinton Isak Wilson ASM Edited August 29, 2022 by cubaricho Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longstaff becomes the 6th option, which is fine. Then we also have Anderson who can potentially cover a more attacking position. Up front we have a choice between Isak and Wilson, Almiron as the backup on either wing, Anderson, and then Murphy. A DM or a versatile CM won't fix everything, but it definitely goes the furthest in terms of adding both first XI quality and depth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The defensive shape would need working on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been rumoured to be all in on Arsenal from the start. If Arsenal don't agree a fee I could still see him running his contract down or waiting until January. The house sale could be more pressure to Leicester to let them know he is off regardless and for them to take more money now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 If West Ham are getting Paqueta, I wonder if they would consider letting Soucek go. There was rumours earlier in the window that he was available for a reasonable price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
