It is a little odd that there’s not many credible links to anyone at the moment. We’ve briefed we’re not interested in Guimaraes and Zubimendi but other than Bah there’s not much links. Hopefully it means we’re working away in the background.
We were better in attack against Leicester but we desperately need some athleticism/ positional nous in midfield and we could really do with a right back or a centre back. If we replaced Lewis and Bernardo from the team that started against Leicester we would be much better defensively.
Kovacic is a good box to box or an 8 but keeps being pulled out if position as a DM. Someone like Guimaraes (obviously not going to be him sadly) beside Kovacic and our midfield is much much tighter and the hole in the middle disappears. We would stop conceding goals like Villas first or Everton’s equaliser.
Lewis doesn’t stop enough crosses as was apparent against Leicester. A better full back or Akanji there and we are much stronger.
