    Wouldn't be a awful shout, But that wouldn't appeal to fans because we haven't spent £30Million on him.

    Ideally, I think we need a striker even before Adams leaves tbh, as I imagine we'll move on Onuachu 1 way or another.

    The thing is we will accept lots of money even if it is on deadline day and it ****s us.

    Everton and Nice aren't paying 30.

    Not on the terms we want.

    Just ignore the part where we have said we've not accepted it.

    The way I see it, if we can’t “persuade” any of our quality players to stay because of the temptation of EPL, CL football, higher wages, etc I understand the route to sell at “our” deemed right price. Tella now and probably Che & possibly Sula, KWP, etc. The key are replacements or faith in what we have remaining. I think Wilcox has done an o/s job with Charles & hopefully Downes also. Goals remains my biggest fear. 3 games in & it looks like we’re loosing 5 of our open play goals & the other was Bedders. Ok Che might stay but if sold & maybe others above, I just worry we won’t have enough quality firepower. Incomings? Maybe but I just can’t see (this late in the window & lack of options out there) they’ll be of any sufficient quality for what “we” require (target?), which is surely top 6?

    And we have been offered £22Million.

    Do you see those clubs offering £30Million on our terms?
    If they do then fair enough but I don't think they do, let's see who is right.

    This is it.
    There is a lot that is positive but failing to have a decent strike force would make this a deplorable window. This has been an issue for three windows. Three. And now it is getting worse.

    Yes I do. Because clubs are getting desperate and we don’t say no.

    I know it's asking way too much, but can we just wait and see what actually happens by the end of 'the window'? It's a lot less stressful, relax, all will be fine.

    I've been relaxed all window. We haven't been able to replace any players because they are still here.
    Fans are ****ting the bed thinking we are just selling willy nilly and not bringing anyone in.

    Everton couldn’t pay 15m on terms we would accept. No idea about Nice

    Unless they are getting loads of cash upfront for Gray. Has he even agreed to go though? I gather the Saudis are having a slightly tougher time enticing non Muslims to the league. Lukaku is straight up not interested for example. So have to pay them even more. There have been more than I thought who have made the move eventually though

    Best I’d come up with was Dennis from Forest but probably not the type of striker we’d want for the Adams role.

    Sydney van Hooijdunk seems a good shout too, whether we could tempt him is another issue.
