Just to make a couple of comments after the Bordeaux game.....
I think our striker options are actually fine. I'm not sure why we are even talking about replacing Bacca. Unless we can get a world class striker, than there is no need for Pavoletti or someone like that. Niang, Adriano and Lapadula will be more than adequate enough and can do what this team needs.
This game showed exactly where the weak spots are in this team. 1st preseason game or not, it was no different than last season. Poli and Bertolacci are massive "black holes" in the midfield and time and time again they just show that they simply just may not be good enough. We are average at the fullback position, but I don't see it as a priority. And obviously a winger is needed. Galliani has his work cut out for him, but I'm just afraid that he'll miss the point again and go after the wrong targets, or even reinforce the wrong positions.
