4. Sign An Attacking Star

The attacking midfield trio will be your game-defining weapons. Ozil and Sanchez are two world stars, now go and have fun, splash out mega money on a (future) mega star. But who? Bernard Silva is a great, great bet. He's young and already comes with a host of immense stats, though he may take some persuading to join. Bernard from Shakhtar is another fine option, while two of the best buys originate from Ukraine. Andriy Yarmolenko is a technical wizard, and can be picked up for £21m, while compatriot Eugene Konoplyanka is the better option. He's worth £35.5m but can be snapped up for £25m due to his release clause. Exploit it quickly and you'll get an unbelievable player. Most of those options prefer the left side, but with training and rotation, slotting them into the squad will be easy.
