Hopefully, he's a bit like Eidur Gujohnson. I think that's where some people are missing the point with team building. In a period when top goalscoring forwards are rare and at a premium, this has been the way to go and we have been quite slow to the party. Having rotating centre forwards that can provide different solutions for different games, whilst still providing high amounts of energy, due to the pressing needs of the modern game is a good solution to this. Both are young, have the propensity to grow and offer the team different things. Similar to Cole-Ole, Drogba-Gudjohnsen, Benzema-Higuain. As a team it makes us a lot more flexible. Having quality and depth, instead of relying on a top tier striker which is hard to find.
For the build of this team, I hope it ends up mirroring the Chelsea side of 04-05, a good team of quality individuals, with strong depth to attack multiple fronts, a solid defence and multiple routes to goal.
The obvious next step is to sign De Ligt and Ugarte. After this, I would actually not sell either Casemiro or Wan Bissaka. Instead, I would sell Malacia and Sancho; using that money to sign a young, developing but extremely athletic left back. This would allow us to still use Shaw as a left back in the short term, but with an aim to transition him to a centre back in future, whilst having a high quality but young alternative, that can serve and wing back or even on the left wing.
