I'd be fine with Cech continuing for another year. But we cannot lose out on signing a top-class CM.
CM, CB, DM, WF, GK - in that order for me.
Getting a new CM over DM won't solve anything imo.
We've sorely lacked a world class CM this decade. Haven't had one since Cesc used to play there before Wenger started using him as a CAM. Cazorla is the closest we got.
Thing is, getting a DM and playing him alongside Ramsey and/or Wilshere (if he stays)?
I know both have his fans but I don't rate either. Wilshere is better as a pure CM, whereas Ramsey excels in a more free CM role that allows him to bomb forward.
We need a DM too, but if it's either/or, we need a CM more I think. Elneny could sub in as a DM. But with Ramsey/Wilshere as our number 1 CM, I can't see us doing anything in the League.
Ideally, our priority must be to buy a CM and a DM, yes.
