No. Not long term options.

I don't like the profile of them players either but all 3 would improve us.
I do think we need the here and now type players like Cunha and mbeumbo and all 3 are prem proven and have been quite successful.

Amorim has not trusted Mainoo, Ugarte and to a lesser extent Dorgu. So the question is, why is that?

Our midfield is terrible and we seem to win games I spite of it, rather than because of it. Mainoo might bring some more passing composure, but seems tailback the physicality to play in this system. Even more so, when Casemiro is being asked to do this next to bruno, who is not a midfielder and vacates the midfield or refuses to tackle.

So who would amorim trust to play in there? We need to find 2 of those players, possibly even 4 over the next year or so.

Bruno is not a CM.
Casemiro should not be extended.
Dury is out on Mainoo and ugarte in the double pivot he is trying to play.

I guess Kone is expected to come through the youth. don't anticipate anything left field like maz or martinez to play in there. So buying a decent player who he thinks will make a difference is a definite for me. Does that mean Mainoo goes out on loan to gain experience? Maybe. But we need to overhaul our midfield desperately, and need to start in Jan.

Dalot is poor at lwb and rwb in my opinion. Clearly amorim loves him, but he is also holding us back. don't expect movement there, but do hope we see more of dorgu than Dalot their this season.

Ugarte out, Connor Gallagher in would be good business.

Not sure Mitchell would be value for money. Amass is doing well, I’d rather recall him.

Toney would be a good option but I’m unsure of his attitude and professionalism.

Take Toney in a heartbeat. Experienced and he might get the chance to resurrect his England career if he does well. As long as he is not on stupid wages def yes from me.

Mitchell and Connor whilst good are not good enough long term but as loanees worth a punt.

Actually I think Gallagher could potentially be another De Bruyne or Salah that comes back to the premier league to haunt Chelsea, I'd take him, he's better than some we have even as a squad player if he didn't set the wirld on fire.

Value in Jan is especially hard to find.
A loan for gallagher would be worth a punt if we could get urgarte a loan somewhere it makes sense.
Getting a loan striker would be great.

Gallagher on loan would be a good deal and he would definitely suit what Amorim wants from the 2 HM players. lots of energy and could work with either Casimero/Fernandes for the second half of season.

Long term I would sooner spend the money elsewhere. but I can imagine a loan to buy with him.

Mainoo. I am not convinced he will turn it round for Amorim no matter how much we want it. Could be another Garnacho where we have to let him go to improve the team, even if they then go elsewhere and play well. Just get good value.

Whilst the AFCON will be challenging for us I am actually looking forward to see how some of the youth do as we will need to bring some into the squad. Out of adversity we could get a gem ready for the first team now. akin to Rashford when he came through.

I’d take Toney and Gallagher on loan, the latter with an option to buy. Toney would worry me a little, though. I saw some fan account on Facebook going on about what a great pairing he and Mbuemo were the other day, but I feel like it was only after the former went to Saudi that the latter really began to shine.

I'd imagine zirkzee and mainoo might get playtime further up the pitch in December with amad and mbeumbo at afcon and seskos most likely not going to be fit to play every game after his injury.

I know we're not looking for a player in his position but I am impressed by Schade at Brentford every time I see him.
