This is going to be Connor Gallacher.
More than likely yup it will be.
On a serious note though, it's probably the summer more than any other that nobody has a clue about what we'll do.
FFP hanging over us with premier league oversight by most accounts.
Lot of high earning out of contracts now set to leave, the Kean situation at Juve (loan fee or a sale for a decent amount a year early?) The future of Richy (please stay) DCL, Keane, Mina, Allan, Pickford (will stay), interest in someone that comes put the blue also possible.
What is apparent is that we need a lot of work on the squad (maybe highlighted more as the weakest part is right down it's spine)
Assuming one of DCL or Richy goes, DvDB leaves, Delph leaves and Allan isn't seen as a starter (likely given him falling out of favour) Gbanim is loaned or sold cheap to remove his wages and Iceland goes (please God go) and Gomes I'd s not considered a genuine part of the first 11 (I'd say that's nailed on just a matter of keeping him around or trying to get rid really).
Mina or Keane goes (think Keane goes if someone like west ham put money on the table and Mina is all about if we think we can keep him fit (sadly I think he's gonna be gone)
We've literally got down the spine of the team almost nothing
Holgate, Godfrey, Braithwaite and one of either Mona or Keane.
So definitely need AT least one starting cb.
In the centre we have who...
Dacoure, Deli, who you could see as being starters, the rest at best if they remained would be options that are emergency not choice ones.
Possibility Iwobi or even Gordon could factor into a more central role for next season but again that's no guarantee it'd work.
Clear as day we need AT least two starting calibre players and likely three good enough to promote any form of competition there.
Up front we'll need another striker in as can't see how we retain both Richy and DCL.
All that's before even looking at the wide areas, right back we have coleman who'll be a year older and Patterson who it's unknown about and even if deemed he's ready to start it'd be his first season as anything more than a bit part player so chances are he'd hit the wall at some point. Left back we're ok at Mylenko starter lad returning from loan as backup, wide we seem ok at, but if Richy goes or moves central then we are literally bare bones depth wise there.
Absolutely no idea how you go about fixing half of these issues never mind them all in one window under the cloud of FFP and with pretty much the need to sell before buying
Loan market is going to have to be really utilized well this season, trying to bring in the likes of Gallacher etc to fill areas we can't afford to buy that quality for, much the way we did with Barry and Lukaku seasons ago.
Priority HAS to be through the spine though a CB and two CMs as a bare minimum
