Some players are definitely coming to the end of the road. That wasn't Boly's first rocky game of the season (it was his worst though, by a distance) and he's 30 now, with fitness issues creeping in more and more. Saiss is 31 and I think everyone would like to see him take on more of a squad role going forward. Dendoncker should not be in a position where he's playing as often as he is, irrespective of him doing nothing most weeks. Not involved yesterday, but Joao is 35 in September. Marçal can't stay fit and is 32. If we do actually plan to move to a back four on even a semi-regular basis, there are big question marks over Coady. Unless there's a squad makeover that dramatically changes how we set up, we remain almost entirely reliant on our front three to score and create, as the rest of the team is either defenders or defensively-minded midfielders. As such, we simply can't sustain Adama's prolonged lack of goals, same applies to Podence. José isn't staying, thank the fucking Lord. We've given up on Kilman, no value in him staying at the club, not good enough. We've brought MGW back from his loan spell, barely used him and we still don't seem to know where he's supposed to play, so where's his future. Probably not here. Cutrone is done as a Wolves player.
That's a lot to unpick. We have a small squad as it is and a chunk are either getting too old or aren't suitable for the roles we need them to play.
"Just get Raul back" can't be our mantra. We need a lot more than that.
