Not sure I am totally comfortable with this post... Very confusing on several levels...
Agree. I also had a serious competitor for Bellerin on my wishlist for last summer. Since we didn't really have anyone to fall back on if Bellerin was not up to scratch.Like I said in the summer repeatedly, we absolutely had to sign a RB. We were committing **** by not doing so.
Forget that Bellerin isn't really all that great himself but his injuries were a sure sign we were going into the season with a massive risk.
Yeah, Bogle or Aarons are my preference as I feel we need some more English talents at the club. Atal I like a lot too and have been wishlisting numerous times. Ideally, if we got good money, I'd sell Bellerin and sign one of Bogle or Aarons along with getting Meunuer on a free or a two year loan for one of the Real Madrid or Barcelona RBs they're over crowded with.Agree.

I actually thought Bellerin was quite important for our setup until his injury. He hasn't really impressed since coming back, but I didn't expect too much. Perhaps he's been worse than my low expectations, but this period could have done him good.
My prefered situation would be to buy a serious competitor this summer. Bogle seems very good for that purpose. I really wouldn't know who we could buy for a reasonable fee who could slot in immediately (other than Hakimi, who's a pipedream). I don't rate Dest and Dumfries that much, Atal had the same injury as Bellerin, Pereira at Leicester is too expensive.
That's a lot of trees for @Mitch to find and chop down.
