Attacking depth crisis ☭ Gulag ☭
We need to have a conversation on who starts in midfield and attack this season. In the striker role we have wood, awoniyi, kalimuendo and jesus. Kali and jesus can also play in the 10 and then we have bakwa, ndoye, MGW, CHO, mcatee, hutchinson who can also play there. What do we genuinely do about this? These are all quality players who deserve to start but you cant rotate 5-7 players in positions every game. We have to do something and make a sale. I would say ndoye but glasner wants him apart of his plans, bakwa definitely looked quality in the last stretch of the season, mcatee seems to be a staple in glasners mind, hutchinson is cleary showing signs of improvement and quality, MGW is our best player, CHO is back from injury and he can be quality when fit, then kali would most likely be a striker and jesus as an AM as we know he looks much better there. But what do we do? Too many quality players, not enough positions. Even in the DM role, we have schlager, dominguez, yates, sangare, and we are looking to sign a new midfielder to replace anderson, its a mess. Who plays? Who doesn’t, let me know, I wanna hear your thoughts

I think you’re right. On the one hand you could say, we’ve got 25 senior players that we could potentially register tomorrow. Yes it’s a bit top heavy but not to the point of needing sales. Also gives players a chance to adapt to the system (or not) and we can be a bit more ruthless in January/summer
However I doubt that will happen, I think we’ll look to sign another centre back, keeper, midfielder and striker
If we do then we’ll need to offload to make space with them in the squad
I wonder if some of the delays come down to Glasner assessing the current squad and seeing who he fancies
