If we were really going for it, I'd like to see another number 10 as well

Maghoma is a good player, but not clear how he'll go fitness wise over a 46 game season. Slimane has done well in that role, but is he a number 10 to base a top 2 run on? I'm not sure..... given how well he did in that role at the start of the season, it seems a bit harsh, but I'd like another option.

Slimane can then be the person that covers all of those three roles behind the striker as injuries require.
