Unfortunately, I think you're right.
Would love us to buy in the Jan window if the right players are available but I don't see it happening. One or two players in Jan and two or three in the summer would see us about right for next year.
If we had bought a player like Aubameyang in the summer, we'd have won all of the games when we could finish. We are frustratingly close but equally far away when compared to City for example.
Perhaps this is just the right time for FSG to exit?
Yeah our absolute ideal would be to discover a war chest does exist and a cb, whoever that may be, was bought in January. I think being realistic that's the best we can do in January. Like... ok we all knew vvd was never on once Southampton threw a hissy fit but the assumption could be 50odd mil existed tgere... but did we spend it on ox?Did we spend lemar money there? Who knows.
I agree on aubameyang. If we had him we would be.....6? Points better off min? Burnely yes Newcastle yes, man Utd? Maybe. We should have had 3 v watford anyway that was defence.
Everyone would be salivating if we were on 19 points now.
New Gk
Current RBS Matip? New cb lbs?
New no 6
Keita... one of current cms?
Salah new st mane
I mean... my usual is to say just lift Mourinho work and put it here. De gea, Billy, matic, lukaku. Theres a reason the guy buys down the centre of his side.
Same at chelsea, courtois kept, Luis, rudiger, Kanye, bakayoko, morata....
Spurs have retained their key men but are all strong down the middle.
City are very very strong all over.
