A team needs to evolve. ManCity and Liverpool have both strengthened this summer and we have weaknesses that need addressing. Not wholesale, but a couple. We need a player who can score more goals than Defoe and offer more when not scoring.
We need a dynamic CM with attacking bias to compliment the likes of Palacios and Sandro.
I have concerns about every defensive position as well but they can probably be put on hold for 6 moths/year as if we use 451 or 442 with Palacios and Sandro the defence will receive good protection and isn't terrible anyway.
Ekotto is too fucking casual defensively and doesn't get forward much either. He's very accomplished around the half-way line though.
Dawson is Slow of brain and foot.
Corluka is technically good and intelligent but lacks urgency.
Bassong & Kaboul I like and have potential but need a real leader next to them.
Woodgate is fucked.
King can only play once a fortnight.
