knowing your history
Player Valuation: £25m
Will achieve nothing in itself. That squad is desperately short in so many areas it's unreal.
Fullback, Centre-Half and central midfielders with even average PL level footballing competence. Mykolenko, Tarkowski, Doucore, Gueye and Harrison should be nowhere near a PL side yet are pretty much guaranteed games for us.
Bin Dyche by all means but if the next manager doesn't get at least 3 first team ready players in January they will struggle horrifically. The cut-to-the-bone recruitment policy has really hit home this year.
The next manager will hopefully have Garner and Tim fit so at least they'll be opportunity for them to drop Doucs. Mini scandal how he's wormed his way back in as undroppable player again despite producing nowhere near what he was during 2023.
Perhaps the next manager will do something radical like Ndiaye at number 10. Again send Harrison back and get in a proper wide player who can actually run. All the top half teams have at least one.
