We've only (finally) got fit forwards 3/4ths the way through the season.
And we look miles better, underperfoming players are now performing (shocking, I know) and the side is finally able to start to play as a team.
I don't think we'll really know until the end of the season. 10-15 matches or so to see who's really worth it.
I think Benteke will be sold as he's never going to be a starter for us or he'd already be starting. Ings won't be in top condition for the first half of the season and a Sturridge shouldn't be relied upon.
That being said I think we need one more striker to go with Ings Sturridge and Origi.
I also think Ings will prove top quality for us next season.
Maybe Ive put a couple too many departures, but I don’t think Ive gone that far over board,as I think there be 6-9 incomings this summer,And after this summer Jurgen will look to big maximum 2 in each window, rumours of a £100m net budget, with a think is exaggerated and it will be nearer to £50-60m
I can see us bringing in
A 1st choice keeper- Horn,Karius,Stegen
Maybe another CB on top of Matip, which will mean the end for maybe both Toure and Skrtel
A LB to compete with Moreno- maybe Hector
A CM additional to Grujic, a 1st choice one for big money- maybe Xhaka,Ruben Neves,Gundogan,Goretzka
Probably 2 players who can play wide or as a 10 - Heavily linked with Gotze and Zielinski today, but perhaps someone like Sane or Isco
The only area I don’t think we will strengthen is striker,as I think with Firmino able to play there and also having Ings and Origi, think he would be happy to let Benteke go without bringing anyone in
Cull on the way??

Why would we replace Skrtel, our best centre back

Firmino's best position is as a striker IMO. I read somewhere that all his goals have come when Sturridge is not on the pitch. He seems capable of playing up top alone or in the more withdrawn role in a front two.
