If we don't go for Rodrygo I'll be disappointed, but Trossard is a good player in this squad and I'm happy to keep him. But, we still need strengthening on that left side.
I'm not opposed to keeping him as a squad player, but we didn't need to give him a payrise because it will make it harder to shift him now and his value will depreciate. It also reduces our chances of getting a LW as there's been no concrete links with Martinelli going, so we will likely keep the same LW options we've had for the past few seasons - which is a huge mistake. Madueke is also an option on the left too. This all means we are (in all likelihood) not going to refresh that LW position and that is yet another mistake in a catalogue of mistakes this club has made over the past few years.
