We’ve seen a lot of links to attacking players and I just think that we’re fine there both short and long term. What we need is a spine. Defensive midfielder, centre back, those are the priorities. Then right back (depending on what Foyth does there) and maybe left back (depending on the evolution of Sessegnon).
I agree, but I do reckon that Lucas will go ether Summer or maybe even Jan if Poch stays. He hardly gets a look in these days and when he does he never plays in his preferrd position. That's not to say I think an attacker should be too priority, personally I think a DM then Wing Backs then CDs are the priority.

It's rather depressing this - I just wonder how many of these players will be looking to come now.

At one point we were young, upwardly mobile with a good team spirit, a world class manager and could offer champions league football.

If I was a young player I'd seriously question whether it was the right club now

Appreciate JJ is dismissing the report, but shit is hardly a laughing matter at the moment. Hope those inside the club aren't cackling to one another as we rub shoulders with Norwich, Villa et al.

I would say that is the mini required over the next 2 windows. Can only see a maximum of 2 signings in January

We only need a RB and a DM imo.

Aurier is not good enough and Foyth is not a RB imo
Dier is shit and Wanyama is not the player he was after so many injuries

Atal seems the best choice for RB
Lobotka looks a good choice for DM. I personally like Ascacibar from Stuttgart but he may not be as high profile as some want

People arguing the possibility of signing potential etc. What has Poch done with potential?

It's becoming a myth that he's this genius with young players. If anything id argue the exact opposite.

We should be targeting the jewels of teams that have nothing to play for come January.
We should be targeting Pochettino first choice options , if we really want to see change

That would be ideal for January and then in the summer we can look to finish the rebuild.

I had forgotten about Lobotka, how has he played this season?

Lobotka, not for me. Look at Fornals struggling with West Ham. The PL is just so much more intense in midfield than La Liga. It really helps if you are an import that you have some sort of physical gifts to rely on, either strength or pace. Even for someone as special as Ndombele with those gifts it’s proving challenging.

The first thing I look for with someone potentially coming into the league is, “What’s their special ability that they can fall back on when they get shocked by the speed and intensity of the game here?”
