i wanted to include them also but they are starting to be on the wrong side of the age curve, certainly wouldnt bet them on the under but the over would be a punt for me. mcneil could really take off again this year and wood is dependable.

Silva would be a great signing. The back line lacks leadership.
If kepa is in goal then I agree with you but surely we can find some cheap old keeper as a stop gap for a couple of years. I.e. Ben Foster or someone of that sort.
So I'd defo take the over 69 points or whatever the line is
i'm operating under the assumption we sell/trade kepa to some spanish or italian team with money also trying to get rid of a keeper
i may do a 180 and go bullish if thiago silva and chilwell are confirmed. a back 4 of chilwell/thiago/(Zouma or Rudiger)/azpil would be pretty neato
