    I can see us improving next year by having (hopefully) a full year of Timber at LB, by buying a wide attacking player that is an improvement on Trossard/Martinelli (also providing more depth there) and by a very young team being a year older.

    That should be enough imo.
    Maybe not first-choice but a decent option off the bench would be nice

    I think the future of Jesus and Zinchenko may well be up for discussion this summer.

    Jesus is currently a good option off the bench. Eddie less so. If you mean an option off the bench who is a natural finisher/poacher then I would agree. Not sure how easily you find someone like that who can play at our level but is content to not be in the first 11.
