Given we returned for Botman, Isak and Gordon, who have we allegedly targeted in the past that we might revisit.

 

I can only think of Bakker, Franca and Diaby.

Have a sneaky feeling we'll end up with Diaby. It has been very quiet around him for a while.

 

Would love it if we could get Franca. Hope the Chelsea rumour is false.

Crying out for a winger/attacking midfielder who will guarantee 12/15 goals a season. Could Barnes be that player? I'd take him but feels a step down from Maddison and Szoboslazi 

 

 

 

That's Salah, Saka, Martinelli, Rashford level.  Big big money. Barnes is a fine player but that's too high a target. Even Mitoma was only something like 7 goals 7 assists, and not guaranteed. We kept him very very quiet at SJP.

 

Miggy doesn't create, he just combines with Trippier or Bruno (who create) or finishes. He won't be up for it, but if our system is "forward at RW", we could try Isak there. Maybe a fun thing to try in preseason. His second against Spurs was a right forward's goal.

To be fair Barnes got 13 goals from 34 performances in the PL this season. 1 assist isn't all that great for a winger though.

We need at least a LB and RW in this window. Im not too worried about CB as Burn can cover there if we get an LB in. Pace at the back an issue tho. Stottie above is 100% correct as much as we love Miggy and his work rate he just doesnt create.
