We need a partner for Partey. We were in for Locatelli in the summer apparently which would have been very good.
After that, we need to sign a striker as Auba is 31 and Laca is off in the summer.
Finally, if we're going to play Smith Rowe on the wing then an attacking midfielder behind the striker. We still have room to improve attacking wise so if we get someone that can unlock a defence - like an Ozil - then it will aid free flowing, attacking football.
I guarantee we will spend big on yet another PL defender.
I think our ST targets are locked in, we're looking at up-and-comers who haven't had a breakout season yet. I don't think we were serious about Locatelli, as we made bids first instead of agreeing personal terms. Makes sense because Italian players always go for Juve first.

Hopefully next summer can do the same for the attack.

Yep.
Imagine if we had Bissouma & Partey = game over.
But instead Arteta begged Xhaka to stay when he had one foot out of the door.
Lets not also forget he tried to get Bellerin to stay also .......... meaning there would of been no Tomiyasu either.
This is why I'm still not convinced with Arteta, some of his decision making is still highly suspect.

Next we need to improve the midfield. We're still not able to keep the ball for long enough periods. If we can get a couple of good technical players in the ilk of Santi we'll be very strong.
