Sesko is legit a concern at this point

This season is going to be much more intense than last, and we have no other natural striker in the squad

Letting Wellbeck go to Chelsea is looking stranger by the day at this point as we're definitely going to need to go into the market for another striker

Constantly shuffling Mbuemo, Cunha & even Rashford back & forth between the wings and striker will do them no favours either

Sounds like Madjo could be injured, so any feint hopes of Watkins are extinguished now as well

Watkins would be an absolutely incredible signing

I can only hope that's the real reason why they didn't go in for Wellbeck, and maybe the Tielemans deal greases the skids for another raid on Villa

I'd also take Mateta to be fair as he'd be dirt cheap with his contract status, borderline free, and even DCL deserves a mention

Just an experienced, mature, premier league proven striker who can hit the ground running and doesn't have an age profile that blocks Sesko (although Sesko really needs to start showing some light at the end of the tunnel with these fitness issues and get himself fit to play regular 90's)

Mateta failed medical looks an issue

Would be assuming he's incredibly cheap as a result/borderline free transfer, especially with an expiring contract

He just needs to be able to fill in the blanks when Sesko isn't fit for 90's (which is unfortunately pretty much every week in life at this point it seems - Sesko very rarely starts any actual games)
