This has got to be the most excited we've been heading into a season.

Most of our other good buys come after the season has started our we've gone into the season needing a few signings.
 
I haven’t a clue how any of the bought players will perform, nor how any of our current players will react and step up, and I don’t think we will know for four or five games......
 
I've gone 4-2-3-1:

Pickford
Coleman Zouma Mina Digne
Gueye
Gomes
Walcott Bernard Richarlison
Tosun

You can also go 5-2-3:

Pickford
Coleman Zouma Holgate Mina Digne
Gueye Gomes
Richarlison Walcott Bernard

All of this.

Can also play siggy in front of gueye but Bernard in front of him as the ten so siggy is deeper.
 
Pretty much this. Although (and I know I’ll get stick for this) I’m expecting to see a much better Keane this season with Mina as a partner and Digne as left back.
Hopefully he will be better - many would say he can't be worse. Last year was such a mess it's hard to judge any one player. How often did a player look like he'd taken up a bad position, but did so because he had to "cheat" to cover another players inadequacies?

It was a nightmare all round. He joined a team which was dire all round. At the start of the season there was only Pickford, Gueye and you could make an argument for Rooney that offered anything. We had a tough fixture list and morale dropped quickly. Not looking to make excuses for him but there are reports he was playing with a foot injury as well.

I’m expecting much better from him this season.
 
Pickford

Coleman - Mina - Zouma - Digne

Gueye - Gomes

Walcott - Bernard - Richarlison

Tosun


The front 3 should all be able to change position during a game.


Sigurdsson can come in for Gomes / Bernard.

Lookman can go outwide when needed.
 
I’ve got a feeling Richarlison will turn into a top striker in the end.

I suspect the same if you look at the squad central striker looks weak with DCL, Niasse as back up to Tosun I think Richarlison or maybe Walcott might get a run up top would give Lookman some playing time too.

Finally a lot of options rather than Siggy or Rooney playing wide.
 
The difference is scary

The best thing we have now is we can change stuff up, We can put Lookman on the wings or behind the striker same with Bernard, Richarlison or Walcott can go up front if needed, We have a nice variety in attack now that we haven't had for a while because we've always focused on having a striker to do all the work which is nonsense in today's Football.
