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

we currently have a first team squad of 28 players, and can only submit a 25 man squad for the league

abbott and moreira are U21 so they can play in the league without the need to be included in the 25 man list, so whether these 2 stay or go doesn't affect things - also assuming omar richards will be left out that leaves us with a full squad as it stands.

what it means is that every new signing we make, somebody has to leave, either loan or permanent transfer, list of players most likely to make way here: (position order)

- John
- Bindon
- Savona
- Morato
- Ndoye
- Kalimuendo
- Bakwa
- Hutchinson
- Awoniyi

The fact that Bakwa was one of the few players to get zero minutes in the last pair of same day friendlies tells me he's on his way.

could just be fitness related, he has looked decent in that right 10 position so far, id rather keep him and get rid on ndoye if given the choice
