Next seasons squad

I would agree with this for the most part.

Depending on who the keeper is we bring in I could look to loan Kinsky. If its an older keeper, someone like a terStegan is avalible, you sign him with the view of Kinsky taking over in a year. If its a younger keeper like Trafford or Atablulu who we have been linked with I would keep him to compete with them.
Austin I would loan out. We don't need to worry about home grown without Europe so let him get a season in a lower European league.
I would consider selling Spence as well. Just think we can bring in a better level of player.
If Senesi & Robertson are coming on a free I would loan out Souza and probably sell Phillips who I think we could get close to £10M for.
Id be open to selling one of Romero/VDV if the price was right and replacing.
I would sell Sarr and retain Palinhia. I think we already have too many players of Sarrs profile and Palhinha offers something different and can almost be a specalist for away games or home games vs top 5 teams. I would also have Devine be part of the squad next season.
I would add in another Winger/Forward type player as well just because Xavi & Odobert will miss most of the season and we can't count on Kulusevski. Kudus might even miss the start.
If we did bring in another Striker for Solanke to compete with, Id send Lankshear back out on loan.
Byfield & Williams Barnett cannot be loaned out until January so mix them in as well.

Ideal signings would be that have been linked.
Trafford, Scott, Adeymi, Marmosuh. That will cost you about £200M once you add in Palinhia as well.

Sell
Vicario, Dragusin, Sarr, Richarlison and some young players to get about £75M back.

Trafford, Kinsky, 3rd GK
Porro, Spence, Udogie, Robertson
Romero, VDV, Danso, Vuskovic, Senesi, Byfield
Gallagher, Madds, Gray, Bergval, Bentancur, Palinhia, Devine, Scott
Kudus, Adeymi, Moore, Kulu, Xavi, Odobert, W.Barnett
Marmoush, Solanke, Tel

I have concerns about Robbo. He's not the player he was. Shame Brentford just added the 1 year clause to keep Rico Henry until summer 2027. He would have been a good option. I'm not a massive Spence fan but would be concerned if we didn't replace that versatility he offers. Udogie is becoming a serial crock and we've been riding our luck on Porro's fitness. He could easily hit burn out and get injuries. It's a shame Leif Davies got back into the PL at first attempt. I'm a little confused why we're in for Senesi though. If Romero leaves then I sort of get it.

Where I do agree is that strengthening the full-back options is incredibly sensible. There must be some good options out there.

It's also a good point about the attacking injuries. Marmoush is a good player and there should be other targets if we don't think we'll see much of our 3 or 4 injured players. Alex Scott is a good player. So are Wharton, Anderson, Gomes etc. If we can get into this market for midfielders then we'll be OK without Palhinha. Finding those equivalent attacking players is perhaps that much tougher. Obviously, Savinho was the talked about player last summer. Akliouche could be another one we look at again. We need more players comfortable on the ball, but as we saw yesterday taking players on has been another miss in our setup. Gibbs White 16 goals and 7 assists just shows what we missed out on. He can't be happy at Forest.

I just don't want us stretching our budgets too thinly. I'd rather we buy elite only and plug the gaps with the youngsters. That's what we should have been doing for years.

Thats why I am ok with the Senesi & Robertson signings as they are frees. Then you spend the big money elsewhere.
 
Selling Dragusin and replacing with Vuskovic will bring in 15mil AND upgrade the squad.

This job is easy. Who should I send my CV too?
