Phew! Now that it’s confirmed, what do you think we need to strengthen for the premier league?
For me, I think we’re in a very good place - let’s not forget how dominant we’ve been until the blip. I think we need:
Goalkeeper - no issues with Mads or the depth.
Defence - with Doyle going back, we could do with a left back to play his system. Choudhury has been great but I wonder if we’ll bring in another RB more similar to Ricardo as that position is so important to his system. Vestergaard has arguably been our player of the season and hopefully will sign a new contract but it was a bit worrying how easily Jackson ran around him each time in the Chelsea game. Also, let’s now forget that he was one of southamptons best players before Rodger’s tried making him play on the half way line.
Midfield - with Winks, KDH, Fatawu and Mavidi I imagine they’ll still start. Hopefully KDH will stay and Ndidi sign a new contract. I think in terms of starting players we could do with a new third central player, whether that’s to play advanced of the two or behind the two. I think we could do with one more winger for depth too.
Up front - we clearly need a new striker. It will be interesting to see who stays to be part of the depth and who goes. I reckon Vardy will stay one last year and I think Ihenacho will go. I can see Daka maybe staying but who knows. What was the point in Cannon?
