Personally, I'm not sure we reeeaallly need one, but I think we need another striker whoever he is. Anyway, I was talking to my contact inside the club and I asked him about our hunt for a target man/why we are targetting players like Adebola. He replied that he felt we needed a bit more physicality in the side but he couldn't give me any concrete names (annoying that innit...). However he let slip that we are looking to sign a PL reserve striker for the season on loan. He also stated that he isn't English and hasn't played a professional game before. Still, apparently a very good talent. Anybody give any guesses as to who it might be? My first thought, for whatever reason, is this guy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikola_Sarić He hasn't played in any first team games and is from Bosnia/Denmark. Answers on a post card......
Wow. Great input. So we are going to get Ghilas on loan from ourselves for a year? I mean the guy is the epitome of a target man at 5ft 9 and his goalscoring feats are second to none. Wow. Just...wow.
Ghilas had more vision and touch than the majority of donkeys Brownie played as a striker in the premiership.
Any striker we sign on loan is likely to come from Man United. In fact, everyone we sign comes from Man United.

Lol at John Cofie, make sure that we have plenty of cornbread. He could also serve as a sort of physio....
