Boro signing 2 striker for £10m whilst already having Latte Lath… Jesus. Maybe the latter is off to Ipswich so they’re in need.
And he'd be right. The majority of owners in the Championship would class that as a failure to achieve their ambitions, at the very least.
Im sure we'll bring in a striker, he just wont be as exciting as we were all hoping for.. Conway, Cannon & Stansfield were the 3 that most would have been happy with, looks like Boro have got 2 of them and Fulham are keeping hold of Stansfield. Time for Acun to pull a rabbit out of the hat last minute...
Maybe Acun did/ Maybe Acun has a bombshell striker signing... but either way, you can have the best wingers in the league, the best midfield, but ultimately someone has to be the striking focal point,..
Its difficult to say. For me the budgets recouped from the many sales and wages saved. He could easily have offered more wage to sole of the turn coats. He appears too relaxed or complacent for me. Compete with the clubs trying to hijack. Don't just sit like a wet lettuce and let them do it.
I know it's just the optimist in me but I can't shake this feeling that Cannon was a bit of a smokescreen.
