The problem is for me, with the current squad. The depth to our current XI aren’t good enough for PL football. If we can upgrade 5/6 of our XI those players that were good for us can become that depth and rotation in turn making us stronger

Yeah definitely. Be interesting to see how the club attack those 5-6 upgrades.

I'm not sure if Elliott is more Smith-Rowe than Palmer. A massive upgrade for sure but I'm not sure he moves on to that elite level.

The nice thing about Elliott is the versatility. Assuming we play the same way next season he could be used as the 7, the 8 or the 10. And he’d make a good impact in any of them.

Burnley also signing Loum Tchaouna who’s just come on for France - number 11. Right winger who cuts inside. I guess to compete with Edwards. Profile seems to match what we’d want tho

He's out of our range anyway so it's a bit irrelevant but I think that's the risk with a player like Elliott. He's a talented lad but what he needs at this stage in his career is consistency. Starting every week in the same position and knowing what his job is.

Fulham is the perfect move for him in so many ways, but I thought he wasn't liked down there.

I think we need a lot of new players and shift a good few but I think I'd be slightly worried if we had 7 new players in the starting 11 for the first game

Agree although to play devil’s advocate, it would also be really exciting. More likely 3-4 new starters with a few subs.

Depends on the quality of player who come in. If it’s more players similar to Lauriente and Bulka it’ll be strong. Obviously if they gel etc.

But it’s the premier league and just like we did when we went up to the championship we have to strengthen the XI quite considerably but this time the ones who drop out are young enough and have enough potential to rotate and play a part

Watch this space. May not get to lead England at the world cup.

Maybe not. Mind, the games will mostly be played in mad, broiling heat under scorching son. It won't suit us at all and certainly not the type of high energy game he says he'd like us to play.
