CountryRoyal Ugh the thought of having to watch Edwards and Aluko again next year has just depressed the shit out of me. I’m not ready to properly think about us yet.

The problem is who are the three in midfield? Meyler is a cert and I think Swift is likely. For balance the other options are poor. Aluko now has a lot more competition so if he underperforms he’s out.

Bacuna surely? Agree Swift and Kelly look pony together.

CountryRoyalJohn Smith O'Shea has a winning mentality embedded in him. The only benefit he's bringing is his qualities off the pitch.
I’m not sure 7 seasons with Sunderland does much for a “winning mentality”, and if his off the field qualities are so oxf*rd great why couldn’t he do anything to help that basket case of club avoid successive relegations.

Old Man Andrews I personally think it is going to be a long summer. Seems the money is only there for a decent striker which is good news but we need a whole new midfield too. We have the most lightweight midfield in English football.

Can't be that long a summer being as we only have a month now to get all our business done.
Depends who we play in midfield really and what Clement has in mind. Meyler/Bacuna and Edwards wouldn't be lightweight for example. Kelly, Swift and Evans would be. We need to get rid of a few midfielders rather than sign any more imo.

Hound ok Meyler, Joey and Bacuna then...
anyway point being is I don't think we need any more midfielders. We need to get rid of some - my list would be Edwards, Joey and Evans

Old Man Andrews How is Dave Edwards not lightweight? Why would you even mention him? He has to be sold.

I agree with that for sure.
Just think we need to get a player in who can do what Kelly and Swift do but isn't made of glass. Ideally an exciting kid on loan like Mason Mount would be nice. I think Swift needs that pressure on him in order to perform at the level he used to.

The only thing swift needs is working hamstrings and to put a bit of effort in.
