​The only issue with that is where does Bent fit in?

If we sign him, he's bound to be starting so maybe:

                                                                        Thorne

                                                           Jota                        Ince

                                                                        Hughes

                                                                Martin             Bent

​More like:

                                    Grant

                    Not Keogh         Not Albentosa

                                  Thorne                      

                      Hughes          Dawkins

   Russell                        Jota                            Ince      

                         Bent                Martin

Hmmm... still not enough forwards. Because when people spent the whole season attacking our defence who are left exposed by our attacking style, what we need is an even more attacking style!

​That's why although I love Bent and goals he scores, I would probably prefer a cheaper (lower waged) striker/cf who wouldn't mind playing number 2 to Martin and could perhaps fill in on the wing like Bamford did for us such as: Dominic Solanke, Jerome Sinclair, James Wilson, Jon Walters, Izzy Brown etc. to save us some wage money 

However I wouldn't complain if we did get Bent obviously, still a quality, quality player but I prefer Martin...

I can't see Bent starting at many clubs in contention for his signature to be honest. He seemed happy enough at the game time he received of the bench. And knowing Mac, if Bent proves himself as the better striker he'll be picked. 

Buying Jota and Ince too gives us the options we need going forward. I think it's probably time to stretch the spending to ensure this season is ours. #COYR

​I wasn't attacking the defence, just pondering how Ince, Jota and Bent could play together in the same starting lineup.

I don't think it's a solid setup either and therefore Jota could be signing instead of Ince (if it comes off).

Would be a quality addition and a signal of intent, also if Raul is going to be part of the set-up here maybe Jota would help him settle, meaning we get more for our money.

Still, not sure I can see it happening, would have thought there would be a few prem clubs sniffing and rumours seem to suggest this. Mind you it seems anyone now who has a few decent champ games gets linked with the prem and they can't all go there, so who knows?

​I fully agree with you, any lineup where Martin and Bent play together is at the detriment of either midfield or defence, which is worrying!

Would certainly suggest both a change of style and a future for Raul. Could look like this (with other rumoured additions):

                                      Grant

Christie         Albentosa             Shackell        Forsyth

                     Hughes                Thorne

Jota                             Ince                        Russell

                                 Martin
