Judging by RobboLFC post my fear is that our insistence on signing Diomande and Barcola might hold us back. What happens if we cannot make either of those signings….. I hope Torres and Rayan are plan c and d.
I am not totally surprised midfield is not the priority. I think the balance needs to be addressed and we ideally will sell Macca for someone with more running ability and defensive nous, but it is a very coachable midfield.
The problem last season was the spaces between the midfield and attack or defensive as never right, and lack the of intensity in the press. These are things that can be coached.

The midfield is the biggest problem n looks like it isn't a priority, just look at our midfielders, Macallister, Jones, Gravenberch are all who can be improved on. Slob is our only top class midfielder. Needs urgent attention, not some 100 mill wingers who might or mightn't be any good.

The midfield is crap and hopefully we get rid of Macca, but if you get them moving the ball quicker instead of last season's snooze ball it will be like having a new player in there til Andoni decides what he wants/needs.

Grav was pretty good wasnt he in the title winning season, just staying back? Maybe Ai would like to give that a shot again instead of wtvr the crap tweaking that was made on the same, title winning midfield the following season.

Don't worry; our shortlist of potential targets is in fact a list.
