Targett can be brilliant, it's a confidence thing with him I think. He's struggled with the change in formation etc. Plus he's not a wing-back.I do think a central midfielder could be needed, but to be honest, if we want to be challenging at the top end of the table we need to be spending a lot of money to upgrade wherever we want to improve. Every player we have has increased in value, we just need to get them playing together better.We need someone who has the best attributes of Nakamba and Luiz combined don't we?

Job sorted.He should be a priority. Lots of midfielders out of contract next summer and gettable in January. Makes a bit more sense to me than paying 40m for the likes of Bissouma even if we could get him. https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/statistik/endendevertraege

Our whole midfield simply has to improve their ball retention. So wasteful in possession.

Raheem Sterling always seems to be linked with moving. Would we take him?

I get the impression he already hates Grealish (never passes to him, never seems to celebrate with him) I think he'd hate the idea of swapping clubs with him.
Can't believe he's only 26. Would be the sort of profile signing that would make people sit up and take notice, but not sure he'd fit into the Gerrard formation.
