    I think long term having a better striker is probably at this point one of the few places for potential improvement, but I think that the kind of money you would need for one like that is simply not going to happen when we just spent 100m on Rice. You either do what City did by getting a super good young prospect from South America, or you spend levels of money we simply can’t afford right now. There are very few strikers that would fit our system and be better than Jesus anyway. (Or Nketiah, for that matter — there are certainly some out there, but for what cost?)

    That being said, a cheeky Campbell 2.0 if Bayern can’t seal the Kane deal? Absolutely would love that. But that would take another year cuz Levy would never sell to us lol.
