Thank fudge the football is almost over so we can go back to playing hypothetical football manager and figure out the easy and obvious moves that would definitely get us to the next level, if only the board / scouting department were as knowledgeable as us....
It will be a fascinating summer. Funds tied up in Bergvall and Veliz who I don't think are going to provide immediate solutions for where we're lacking is interesting, hopefully we can secure EL football and they'll get plenty of opportunities otherwise for where we want to be they'd be better off on loan. It will help having the likes of Ivan, Hugo and Eric's wages off the books. I do hope that Son doesn't fall in to that category of player who doesn't really fit in but is paid too much to not work in to the team. I think the talk of selling either him or Richy to get a replacement is a bit nuts, we obviously need more than one proper striker, I'm not sure if Veliz is there yet and we need more quality.
Left CB is an interesting one as well, I don't see players jumping at the chance to be behind VDV, Cuti and Dragusin which is why you'd think Kelly / Tosin look to have gone elsewhere.
For me I actually want the bulk of the budget on a proper fudging midfielder, we have about 6 options who are frequently all around the same level of meh, adding in Bergvall isn't solving that, we need a readymade signing who will come in and lift the players around him up. Who that player is I have no idea, I'll leave that to the scouting department.
