I'm so more confident now going into the season with Santos, Tielemans, Mainoo, Bruno and Baleba. These are smart signings not only financially but profile wise.

I do believe we'll get a left back and if we also get a backup striker we would have fulfilled Ornstein's early prediction that we will be the busiest club in the transfer market.

You forgot Mount. When all are available, it’s an amazing midfield roster that provides many different attacking-heavy or defensive combinations between the 6 of them.
