Tin hat time but our squad is unbalanced....
We have too many quality wingers and central midfielders and don't have a PROPER striker or creative no10.
When I say we have too many quality wingers, I'll totally contradict myself cause I say we need quality cover for EVERY position....
I'd sell Gnonto as he's just not doing it consistently for us. If we're to get 15m I'd sell him in this window as I don't know if he'd cut it in the Prem anyway. Great to see Gruev back but I wouldn't have him in ahead of Amps, Tanaka or Rothwell. Ampadu will always play when fit....
I'd get rid of Firpo, Struijk (but bring in Elvidi), Gruev, Gnonto and Bamford....all on big wages and we'd bring in circa 40m for them to add to whatever we have to spend.
I just think we could have one less quality winger and a midfielder and buy a decent striker and no10....
