I think it's realistic to expect between 3-5 signings this coming window, we need another striker as Wilson just cannot be relied upon to stay fit for a full season. We then need to build around Willock in midfield with a minimum of 2 more in there imo. Defensively we need a top quality leader to organise us and still need to sort out LB and potentially RB.
Personally I'd like to see us go for these players, ive included 1 marquee signing and others I think are realistic for the time being.
CB- Koulibaly - This would be our marquee signing, was rumoured a lot during the first months of the takeover saga as a player they would like to bring in. He's just hit 30 now and possibly attainable for around £60m
LB - Tagliafico Another we have been linked with before, he nearly went to West Ham in the summer for a rumoured fee of £10m. Good defensively and would be a big improvement on Ritchie
CM - Denis Zakaria Coming up to the last 6 months of his contract so potential for a lower fee, a highly rated midfielder who's been linked with some top clubs, mainly plays defensively but is well suited to a box to box role.
CM - Boubacar Kamara Linked heavily in the summer, another coming to the end of his contract so has a reduced fee, a highly rated young defensive midfielder who can also cover CB.
CF- Schick another we have been linked with in the past, increased his profile a lot since then though, a top striker who can also play out wide. Would take the pressure off Wilson and give us a different dynamic up top.
Finish with some formation porn.
Manquillo -- Koulibaly-- Lascelles -- Tagliafico
Kamara---Willock---Zakaria
Almiron--- Schick --- ASM
