Rodrigo Bentancur

I don't think we will be looking for one tbh. Our needs are greater in forward areas (and full backs IMO) for 'top level', and in the meantime we will be anticipating Gray/Sarr/Bergvall are developing towards this level...

Agree. We've got 3 with enormous potential. Bentancur and Pahlinha will be bridging their emergence in the shorter term. There's also maybe Abbott to factor in too.

And similarly, I don't think we'll look at midfield again till at least summer 2027 now. The next few windows need to be all about LW, LB and CF.
 
This means Someone else will needed to be moved on to bring in another top level CM

Bissouma is out of contract next summer, so I assume he’ll be heading elsewhere in January; assuming he gets over his injury by then.

Would love if we could sign a progressive passer like Wharton to anchor midfield but perhaps Gray shall develop into such a player.

Hopefully he can return to these, pre ACL injury, levels again…

Watching that it seems like he has either lost mobility or lost confidence in his body. It was terrible when that injury happened, as he looked our best up and coming player back then.
 
I still see him do those things, perhaps not as consistently - he still looks technically very good/comfortable on the ball to me.

It was his interception that led to Tels goal let's not forget....

Those clips are probably compiled from across 2 seasons with us. I'm sure you'll be able to do a similar one from this season's moments come end of the year.
