Pressure is always on recruitment teams, but no need to panic after 1 result

Theyll know what we need to do to improve the team

Ill wait till the end of the window to judge how i think we look n whether we are short or not
We said the same in the last window, and the one before that, and we still failed in the striker department

That’s certainly true, hopefully he’ll be one of those essential cogs that make things work without having the more obvious talents of someone like Amad.

Aye. Different to Amad but in some ways might be a better fit and he will look both ways, Amad was always looking for Roberts or to shoot.

Not likely to score the rakers Amad did but he is more likely to pinch a few in the box.

He will be back here this season I reckon. Might even be here this window. Could see a loan deal done with recall option in Jan. He will struggle to get game time now for them without a pre season to show his worth.
My desire to see Amad return this window is tempered by his injury. Don't know the extent of it, but if RS is coming back we've enough further potential breakdowns to worry about without using a loan space on someone who might break down again.

So lets wait n see what happens at the end of this window

Not getting into a back n forth on thw striker situation as did that this morning

We all want a striker, and we all know we need one so no point keeping going on about it

What I don’t want is us shelling out in the wrong striker just to tick a box.

That’s true. If I stop going on about it I might get some urgent work done so feel free to tell me to **** off
 
Don't think that's likely. Might even say,our standards have been set high,which is maybe why we haven't signed anyone yet.

If anything we are waiting for the PL market to shift a bit. I don’t see anyone in our league or below that’s anywhere near.

Be from the PL or abroad so it’s gonna take time. It’s a 46 game season and it’s not like we were miles away yesterday.

One or two of our itk's....and TM himself....have intimated we are close. I'm not wetting the bed just yet!
 
we didn't creat anyhing, even if you had drogba up front yesterday he wouldnt of scored

clarke and roberts were shocking for 90% of the game, half the time the couldn't even beat the first man from a corner,
I think this was the main problem because when they did get in good positions to put a cross in they invariably cut back or slowed it down, so he didn't get a chance to attack anything in the box. Another thing was he kept pointing for someone to put a ball through for him to run onto but nobody tried it.
He wasn't great but I don't think he was as bad as some making out, considering the above.

Personally , i this the club has looked to bypass the main body of player ie between 21 and 29ish. We bought Roberts who seemed to have lost his way, but which other player has arrived at the club in their prime years since the model was announced.
