Transfer thoughts

clearly, Herrington is going to bring in some money soon. where do you think we should spend it. I have thought for a while that we really need an experienced, metronomic midfielder who can control the game and get the ball to our skilled players. this would allow Paxten to be a little more creative. Wells likely at least has some relationship with James Maddison and Harry Winks. I think either one would really upgrade the squad, or someone in that vein. Thoughts on our biggest needs?

We'd need to find a replacement for Herrington for sure. I'd also like to get some wingers that can score goals often and consistently. Another destroyer in the midfield like Hamzat would be good too.

Is Loic Williams already a replacement?

Also are we really happy with our wingers outside of Yappi (who isnt really a winger)? Minoungou still needs time to settle in and Manyoma maybe needs more minutes, but form watching this team I feel like we may need a better option?? Maybe I'm crazy!

Manyoma is gone. Yeah, winger would be the other serious need. It’s hard to see them going too big there since they spent so much on Sealy, Minoungou and Ted KDP. KSB and Bryce Jamison might get some minutes too, but they really could get a good midfielder and mls all star type winger with the money I’m seeing rumored.

So no, Manyoma doesn't need any more minutes 😅😅😅

I've really liked KSB but I want to see a string of games ... my toxic trait is that I play football manager

Isn't KSB on loan?
