    I'm a little confused by this one in terms of midfield make up.

    CDM - Neil
    8 - Diarra / Sadiki
    10 - ELF / Rigg

    Would that be right?

    So who've we got during afcon:
    Rigg
    Enzo
    Neil

    Triantis?
    Browne?

    However worth noting that afcon is during the January window so any injury issues can be fixed.

    To be fair, reading those comments I don't think the Leeds lads will be too bothered about this one haha

    In my head ELF and Diarra are swapped but I think both can play either position

    Yep we would still need 1 more CM so that's why I said like a Miller or Henderskn (just mentioned them as they've been strongly linked)

    yeh. although in reality this itself is a link but I see what you mean. Its insane its got until after the medical to become an immediate "here we go".

    I reckon its come straight from KLD. chances are the contract is signed and they're waiting on work permit but KLD wanted to cheer fans up post-Bulka

    Sadiki covers 3 positions. Diarra 2/3 ELF 2/3 Rigg 2

    I’d say we sign 2 more midfielders

    one more like Hendo experienced and another too develop (unless someone stays in the squad like triantis / Browne)

    I want ELF deeper, so maybe him and Diarra swap roles

    I could see us keeping an extra one, just don't see us signing another 2 CMs - unless Neil was to leave

    Or maybe we will pivot to having two "8s" and lose the 4-4-2 defensive shape

    And tbf sadiki is a bit like kante (a bit as his ball winning isn't really similar) but he's a high energy 6/8(/10) who thrives at bringing the ball up the pitch can still sit in and shield the defence. Should be good on the counter.

    Now we have players who run for days alongside him, Hendo is looking a better potential signing

    Would agree actually, that's how I've thought of it but for some reason still separate the "advanced 8" and one that sits deeper.

    In reality we now could have 4 8s in Riggy, le fee, Diarra and Sadiki who can do both and interchange through the game.
