Players who might improve us

The more I think about it I don’t think we necessarily need a RW. Semenyo can cover both but think he’ll play the majority of RW minutes with Doku playing most of LW. So saying Semenyo can cover the left is a bit of an odd statement as he’ll be playing a lot.

Also think Cherki will play more on the right and so we can see him and Phil in the same team.

I’d like to see us sign someone like Said El Mala to help rotate on the left. A project player like Savio and what Doku was when he came over. Has bags of potential as well.

Then we could still go big on the RW spot depending on money in for players leaving. But what options are there. Akliouche looks to be going to Paris. I can’t see us spending 100m on Diomande.

So you want Doku LW, but his backup Semenyo is also our starting RW and backup ST as well...

Do you not see the problem with this?

There is no depth there.

I need people to think about this in a simple way, if any 1 player gets injured, are we fucked? If yes, we messed up squad planning.

Obviously best in the world players like Haaland and Rodri are different, but we still need backups for them.

Currently, if Doku or Semenyo get injured, and we sell Savinho, we are royally fucked on the wings.

Yes which is why I literally say "we should sign" and "Cherki can play RW"...

What are you on about?
 
I guess I didnt understand your central premise, it seemed like you didnt want to sign a winger if we sold Savinho.

Cherki, is our 10, so again, you can play him RW but its fake depth, like you did with Semenyo.
I guess just depends on investment. If the club decide to sign a top level player that can help on both sides then having 3 players fighting for 2 spaces isn’t bad with the added extra of Foden and Cherki helping.

But yes ideally a LW and a RW.
