I think we’re much more likely now to buy wingbacks high and wide and have inverted forwards like Marmoush and Foden.What is the likelihood of us ever seeing left-footed and right-footed wingers on their respective wings again? Sane and Sterling allowed us to exploit the full width of the pitch, but Doku and especially Savinho have been largely shackled and forced into attacking the inside. With no overlapping fullback, it's become tiresome to watch. If we have mobility in midfield again, maybe we could have a little more variety on the wings.
Possibly, but that means buying two who are first-team ready.I think we’re much more likely now to buy wingbacks high and wide and have inverted forwards like Marmoush and Foden.
Keen to hear what first 11, out of the current players (discounting KDB who is now off), people believe to be our strongest.
I'd say it's this when everyone is fit:
Ederson
Nunes
Stones
Dias
Gvardiol
Rodri
Kovacic/Nico
Foden
Bernardo
Marmoush
Haaland
Lacks width and pace though. I hope Pep plays Foden more central though next season.
Well if Ake and Akanji don't make either of the two teams selected then surely they need to go. And so does Grealish.Ederson
Nunes
Stones
Dias
Gvardiol
Nico Gonzalez
Rodri
Foden
Marmoush
Doku
Haaland

I'd actually go with
Ederson
Khusanov Stones Gvardiol O'Reilly
. Rodri
González Bernardo
Foden. Haaland. Marmoush
And therefore for me Gundo joins Ake, Akanji, Jack, Kev, Walker and Phillips.
Kovacic and Nunes are useful players to have around, Lewis too.
sell both, buy Guehi. :)One of Stones or Ake will be kept imo mate as they are homegrown?
sell both, buy Guehi. :)
Loan Bah to palace as well to cover the loss.I wouldnt be against that either Gaz.
Id actually argue Nunes and Lewis are almost "too useful" and it's becoming a bit of a detriment to us.Well if Ake and Akanji don't make either of the two teams selected then surely they need to go. And so does Grealish.

solid defender, reliable and HG, let the new mids play make.Not convinced by how good he is on the ball personally. He's certainly way off Stones' level. Decent defender though.
Alt Nouri would be a great shout for us. Very good on the overlap and would suit Pep’s get to the bye line and cut back approach.Wolves wanting Mcatee it seems, may help if we want Alt Nouri?

jsut changed to get his new contract, see how the negotiations goRepresent by CAA as well.

Having players that can play multiple positions is a must for any Pep system/squad, but having players who can play multiple positions to a 6/10 standard at the maximum (I know I'm being quite unfair there) is harming us, I feel.

they have a 50% sell on to deal with so alot.Wonder what fee gets him out of Wolves?
