After spending more than £150m on 22 new signings over the summer time, it’s with out query the proper choice to half methods with the top of recruitment and head scout, who’ve did not ship upon expectations to match the extortionate sum of money spent in the summertime.

Though the three present top-rated gamers within the squad as per Sofascore (Neco Williams, Morgan Gibbs White and Lewis O’Brien) are all new additions on the Metropolis Floor, there’s motive to recommend that most of the gamers introduced in have been pointless signings, particularly when you think about what number of minutes a few of these have performed.
