It would be nice if we could get another Raphina, a younger version of Pablo and a player like De Paul for our attacking options.
On top of this add 2 midfielders and a left back.
These players can be a little younger, players who we can coach to Bielsa's way of playing as we already have Philips, Klich and Dallas as first choice in these positions.

Yes yes please Leeds 1970, but isn't that 6 players without even Harrison: how much in transfer fees?
I think at most 4 ( not 6 ) first team player signings will happen
Top priority simply has to be 2 top quality midfielders CM. and CAM both of whom can guarantee plenty of goals and assists. £ 30 million plus pound players
Then Harrison (or another Raphinia type😉)
A left ( wing) back but if Alioski stays I would prefer to spend remaining funds on a (back up) proven striker.

We don’t need a left back if Gianni resigns. (Re-signs, not resigns! ) Dallas, Davis as back ups. Creativity to replace Pabs is crucial tho, I agree.

Bright, sorry pal, if we want to stay mid table than yes alioski is ok, if we want to push on we need an upgrade, yes keep him as backup, same with Robert's imo, ok squad player but won't take us to the next level
Imo.

Baz yes but with the players moving on or we need to move on there should be room for 6. Casillas, Beradi, Foreshaw, Pablo maybe Alioski and Roberts
We have also released the following and may have been paying some of their wages?
Ouasim Bouy
Barry Douglas
Niklas Edris
Cole Gibbon
Eunan O'Kane
Matthew Turner
So 3 players we can develop but are are where Strujik was at the start of last season in their development that is 2 for the mid field and 1 left back
Plus 3 quality attacking options would be my hope.
A striker, a winger and a number 10.
Would even be happy if one of these three was not the finished article and we brought in another winger and number 10 both of who could change a game and we developed another striker.

I think 3 (or even 2) players added would see us kick on. Any more would risk upsetting a cohesive dressing room. If we can get a quality LB then the only othe space we need to fill, would be by far the hardest. As part of the CV we need a creative No 10 with the eye for a killer pass BUT he must also be a box to boxer. Not that many around and certainly not cheap. If, however I am allowed 3 wishes then Please Go and get Kvetchi K. he seem a bargain and we would make up the cost just selling the name on his shirt, sales.
