At least three should be with the intention of being first team starters and better than what we have. No point filling the squad with more mediocrity just to make up the numbers , won’t get us anywhere.
Strange summer tbh, we’ve pretty much done everything right so far in terms of who we have kept, released and signed, yet the first XI is no stronger at all yet.
Could still go either way.
So true that
Luis Diaz
Manny Fernandes
Moutinho
Banega
Brahimi
Veloso
Fernando
William Carvalho
At least we managed to get Francisco Jr over the line
Edit: Banega was in Spain, apparently he's never played in Portugal even though he's the most...
my predictions for signings based on current rumours are:
Doak
Fellows
Hackney
Luiz (loan)
Grealish (loan)
Tagliafico (free)
obvs missing a right back (not many reliable links currently) but would be a significant upgrade in attack and midfield...
