at this point the thuram stuff has been so "regular" it feels like he is his agent has been paying for the link to be kept going while the euros are on. I sort of feel like we've bought the two now and have the friendlies out reminding folk about bajcetic and I'm sure a morton story will circulate soon.
Dominik Szoboszlai to Jurgen Klopp, "It does not matter to him where he plays". Is he a complete player?.
2 more in for me. We never want to be reliant on sick notes or kids again, although the latter should definitely get chances.
I'd like a defender but don't think we need to add to midfield, the 2 new lads start with Fabinho imo which means we have experienced players like Hendo and Thiago as good backup with Bajetic as cover for Fabinho. We still have Elliot and Jones as further cover.
In theory the defence isn't in a bad situation but with Gomez having developed a panic button and Matip getting random injuries (he was better last season though) it's a worry. I'd like one in who's versatile.
Gomez is also apparently our backup RB, what with Ramsay being out on loan. Unless we're going to give Bradley a go
Could use Koumetio more this season at CB. Matip's contract runs out next summer and I don't think he'll get a new one, so we do need a replacement for him anyway. Rather it be sooner than later.
Given our CB’s injury record last season coupled with their performances when they were injured, it’s a must have imo. We are a little straddled with the decision to keep Phillips on the books imo,
Well that is the ultimate test. he's been loaned twice and done poorly. there's a few in the queue but quansah is the one to think about for cb. morton has had his position bought for now and seen bajcetic pass him by while having a successful loan. Bradley saw a youth rb bought while he was loaned as well so we will see what happens there. doak and Gordon complete for one slot un u21s. etc etc etc
