I think there's a lot of value to be had raiding relegated clubs. We're a team that have to look for good value, as we're clearly not going to be out-spending many teams, nor do we need to.
The club appear to have concrete interest in Ramsdale, and their have been a few (ambitious) suggestions of moving for Brooks, Wilson or King. One Bournemouth player who I haven't seen mentioned is Lewis Cook.
He started his career at Leeds, coming through their academy and playing 37 times in his debut season, in which he was only 17 when he made his first appearance. He was regarded as one of the best young players in the country, and wound up being sold to Bournemouth during the summer of 2016.
At Bournemouth, he never seemed to get going. A combination of poor performances, injuries and often being played in the wrong position meant that he never really lived up to the £10m fee the cherries paid.
He's a central midfielder, who could well play a deep play-making roll, but would likely also be comfortable in a more advanced roll too. His passing range is excellent and his creativity would go some way to helping us produce more chances too. His fitness and aggression could well be improved upon, but Wilder and Knill are no stranger to improving and re-igniting players.
Thoughts?
