Striker!

Tue Aug 07, 2018 10:25 pm

Everyone going crazy over midfielders which is fair enough, but i will be more concerned if we dont sign a striker because without one we will struggle big time, we aint got nobody clinical enough to put the ball in the net and teams who havent had one of them have always gone down.

Would we have allowed Bogle to leave if there wasn’t a striker coming in?

Jay rodriguez
Ings on loan
An unknown from abroad
Negredo
Andre gray
Kodija
Assambologo

Surely someone out there, be fair we have had plenty of time to get one, hopefully warnock has been waiting till the end of the deadline to get the best deal and best player

Not counting on City bringing in a striker however do need one and an obvious one available is Slimani at Leicester who want 18m for a permanent deal however they did leave him out of loan last season at Newcastle.

Just a few of the strikers that we have missed out on: Ahmed Mousa, Dwight Gayle, Salomon Rondon, Matej Vydra, Yoshinoni Muto, Patrick Bamford, Stuart Armstrong, Benin Afobe.

Top two and Gray would be good

We need a striker but midfielder has to be the priority, we have a number of players who can play upfront, of course we don't know if they are up to it yet but we have options.

Midfield we have Ralls and then Demour and Gunners. We have to bring in two midfielders at least.

Is everyone forgetting Reid can play up front and knows where the goal is just depends on the kind of midfielders we can bring in

Probably looking for a target man similar to Zohore.
