Patrick Dorgu continues to look like he will be one of our attacking wingers next year whilst offering cover at full back if needed. Improving his output and skill levels, physically strong, quick, and could provide a different option to Cunha.
Comparisons with Bale are way too early (and possibly far-fetched) but he is on the similar progression.
Not sure if this takes away the need for further attacking signings, but I would prefer we bring in our preferred left back signing first and potentially back up striker.

Who is comparing Patrick Dorgu with Gareth Bale lol?

Excellent goal v Ukraine, coming in from the right. Certainly looks like he could become extremely valuable both as a player and as a financial asset.

What I really like about him is that he plays like an old school winger. Full backs are so used to players cutting inside that they don't know what to do when a player goes down the line. I think he adds a different dimension to our attack, and with a proper striker like Sesko in the box we need to get more crosses in.

He's had a handful of games used further forward, but had looked superb in every match since they decided to do so, and scored some excellent and important goals. Very promising signs for Dorgu.

He is a weapon and a reason why we don't need a LW this summer, unless Cunha is being moved inside to compete with Bruno or up top with Sesko, then sure, get a LW. However, I have said many times, midfield and defence are more of a priority than our attack.

Assuming Zirkzee leaves, signing a striker to support Sesko is really a top priority. We can't go into next season with Sesko as our only cf option. Midfield, 2 for sure, ideally 3 needed, imo.
We need better fbs on both sides, and ideally a new cb with pace. We have the numbers in those areas, but are short on quality.
A no2 keeper is needed, assuming we can sell Vietek.
Keeper should be cheap, I've heard Johnston mentioned.
Striker, not sure who is linked. I'd love Lewy, but it's financially difficult and I'm not sure he wants the challenge, and if his body is up to it, although he looks as fit as a butcher's dog.
