one or fucking two?!?!
We need a 6 or seven players! It´s obvious for all to see but he comes out with this?!
Left back, centre back, centre midfielder, Lingard and 2 forwards are needed! Is this not as obvious to you as it is to me?
Ahhhhh.......but you must have forgotten that we have two conquering heroes returning to our fold in the Summer.....Reid and Anderson......surely that must be good news....with Anderson replacing Lingard and Reid replacing Balbuena.....who are both off in the Summer....and at no cost to Sully......
I'm really not sure what people expect. Yes we need to strengthen especially if we make Europe but ALL clubs have been hit financially by Covid and we have to be realistic.
Whether he can get a tune out of Anderson I doubt now, particularly if we keep Lingard, but it won't cost us to try.
For me the essentials are a CF and a DM/utility midfielder. We have enough cover (whether its good enough is a matter of opinion) in all other areas

They don't need covid to hide behind, they shaft the fans matter what the status is. If we do qualify for Europe we'll need at least 5 players ( not journeymen has-beens) to fight on 4 fronts. I like many others don't think our owners are prepared to shell out for that.
With the loss of match day revenue this season it is somewhat unrealistic to expect the club to sign 6 or 7 players.
Whilst I appreciate that we need to strengthen the depth of the squad (especially if we qualify for Europe) it was never going to happen, even in the best of times. I rather suspect that Moyes has said he is looking to sign 1 or 2 players because he knows what the budget allows.

ALL clubs have been financially hit by covid, it is a fact. We all know what we need but we have to be realistic about what we get, but we'll get what we can afford.
