Recruitment in the summer must spot on. Time to go after top tier targets and not squad players.
Completely agree, but for some reason we seem to struggle attracting the very top unless there’s a release clause. We bid for Rice, and were serious about Bellingham, yet somehow didn’t manage to persuade them, despite just winning the treble. I think we need to be offering stupid wages or greasing the palms of agents and/or players families. Pretty sure other top clubs all do that. Still pissed off we didn’t raise our bid for Rice, pretty sure he’d have chosen us over the arses.
Who’s available in summer that’d be worth signing though? Only Mbappe and he’s nailed on for Real Madrid.
