Summer transfer window 2023

Doucoure not Dacoure
Chermiti not Chimitti

Iwobi is an 8. Plays there for Nigeria. Was at his best for us playing there under Lampard. Our best CM3 is Garner 6 and Iwobi, Onana as twin 8s with Onana the power runner and Iwobi the creative force. IMO.

That leaves 3 from McNeil, Harrison, Danjuma, Chermiti, DCL, Beto in a front 3 (possibly with Dobbin, Cannon kept for injury cover, cup ties).
Iwobi isn’t a midfielder he can’t tackle he has no positional discipline and he doesn’t look after the ball well enough he had a couple of games where he looked quite good there but so has mason holgate tbf it doesn’t mean they should stay there permanently. I think it would be very risky to sell Iwobi at this time though because he is one of the better attacking players it’s not a high bar of course but it’s still the case so unless somebody else was being brought in who has a bit of creativity and cleverness I think it would cause a problem for us.
