A keeper, 4 defenders, 2 midfielders, a winger. And all of them need to be either good or decently competent.
That’s assuming no one leaves (I.e. Oso, Ayo) and they drop the dead weight contracts that *everyone* knows are dead weight (I.e. Bono, Mavinga).
I may be in the minority, but my confidence is not extremely high for them signing players (regardless of quality) or retaining/releasing the right talent.
If they do things correctly (because at this point the correct decisions are so obvious everyone on this board points them out), then next year should look like the below:
Insigne-Jimenez-Berna
Oso-STARTER-Kaye
Criscito-STARTER-STARTER-STARTER
STARTER
Subs: Westberg; FULLBACK, O’Neil; Bradley, MID; WINGER, Akinola
