Max was only highly rated for a short period of time during Bruce's second season. If we were gonna cash in, that was the moment. Now, he barely plays, when he does he only shows moments of talent and he's a sick note
Got to plan for Wilson to get crocked though. A good backup striker would be a decent addition, or we're at risk of a single injury leaving us struggling with three game weeks.
We were linked with a young German CF a few days ago. Somebody like that seems believable for what will be third choice initially
Almost certain we will lose Wilson for a period of a few weeks throughout the season but equally you have Isak then Joelinton, ASM, and Gordon who can all cover the CF position in an emergency. If we are looking for CF cover I would guess it would be an U21 so they don't need to be registered CB/LB is my main concern if we lost 2 defenders at present - injuries/suspensions - we would not have the quality of cover to handle it imo. Past the back 4 who played every game we have a back four of Manquillo-Krafth-Lacselles-Target with Lewis as the only back up to that reserve list... one injury or suspension wouldn't be a problem but if we are trying to rotate the team at any point we are in big trouble, unless Eddie has worked his magic with Lascelles and Lewis
