We might play Jones as the 6 against bottom sides, with chance of keeping his place if he develops, allowing Mac, Grav, Dom and Elliot to rotate the other two positions
If you add Milner at around 1300 mins, that would be four players taking up time for around one player. Get one more in, increase Baj’s time and possibly promote someone like Clarke
It could be that Southampton aren’t moving from their valuation of Lavia and we’re happy to wait. Our Midfield is looking much better with the two new guys and improvement in Jones. Would like to see a young defender, however we may want to assess Van den Berg (HG now) and Chambers first.
