Squad until the summer

Yes I'm happy with it. Very strong squad. Improvements obviously need to be made to Llorente and Sissoko but other than that, it's pretty comparable to most the top clubs.

Summer I think Vorm and Llorente will be off. Probably don’t need to buy a replacement for either tbf.

Promote Whiteman as 3rd choice GK and Sterling as back up striker ( with Son being back up too )

Sissoko can’t see leaving unfortunately

CM addition is all I care about really.

Yep a creative CM is what’s needed ( assuming we don’t lose any major players)

with dembele a crock, Sissoko lacking ability on the ball and Winks still improving, we could use a central midfielder who can also ease our reliance on Eriksen.

Llorente then can be upgraded with an impact striker who suits more our play.

Looking at that squad, if we keep them all together i think 2/3 signing in the summer and we are in business. Being the ones i have mentioned above, and someone like sessengon depending his availability and on the Rose situation

I think Sisokko has his purpose in the squad, bit like last night. He's strong hard working and can carry the ball well.

Its because he cost £30m, you expect so much more from him

yes i would keep him in the squad, just needs to be in the starting XI a lot less than he is. Players i would get rid of would be Llorente and Vorm if he is being moved on

It was good to see Dier and Trippier come back to the party last night, I think both have had poor seasons up until now. As is well documented I'm no fan of Hugo but for once in a big game he looked secure, lets hope for more of it from him.

Llorente and Vorm can go, perhaps Trippier too.

The midfield is sorted in my opinion, we don’t really need to do anything there.

Apparently Lopez could be returning on a free transfer this summer so that would be Vorms replacement.

Llorente to be replaced by Malcolm perhaps.

one thing about sissoko is that he is fairly versatile. players like that aren't a bad thing to have around. plug gaps here and there when needed. its when he starts in games we will dominate, and he doesn't have to, that makes you wonder whats going on

Tbf right now if he makes a 5 yard pass then I’m happy with him.

Not good enough and needs to go

no way. dembele is on borrowed time and winks isn't the answer yet. badly need a top quality addition in there.

yes chronic. Get a CM and forward in quickly in the summer and everything else can be sorted if and when

Creative Midfielder to Rotate with Winks & Moussa. Better back for Kane than L'lorente.

Still think we'll go after Gomes from Barca, should Offer Sissoko , a big bag of cash & an apology to Celtic for Demebele

Other than that.. Happy as a clam

Just out of interest, why are so many fans wanting to see the back of Vorm in the summer?

comment by Phenom (U20037)

probably because he's slightly old now isnt he

No wanting to see the back off him but he’s out of contract and probably go back to Holland for one last outing.

Also I think having 3 Gks taking up 3 Non homegrown places is awful.

Lloris, Gazzanga and whiteman is okay

Hengy, I am happy with the squad, other than the back up striker to Kane, who seems able to play every match, but can he do it season after season.

See I think I’m passed wanting to buy a back up striker. It’s just not working for us.

If Kane is out I think I’d rather Son play in a fluid front 3 with Dele & Moura now and promote a youth striker like Sterling.

I think we should really flesh the squad out I know it’s not practical but vorm, llorente, dembele, lamela (what a shadow of himself that injury has killed his career I think) sissoko.

We could improve on the above.

Sessegnon is a must transfer in that kid will be one of the top players in a few seasons.

Of the first 11 I honestly do not think we can improve it bar a right back. Trippier was quality last night but isn’t always and aurier is not good I know he is bedding in but I reckon I could turn him left and right on the pitch he is so predictable has no brain. Even his game where he got two assists it was a miss hit shot and a pass where he slipped.

Improve at right back, better back up goalkeeper, flesh out the squad. Callum Wilson would be great to have as an extra forward he would fit our system really well.
