    I'm still more worried about service. I think Fletch and Connor can get their share of the goals. With that in mind Podolski or januzaj on loan and buy Bruma

    Keep Giachh n Ricky fit and I believe them two plus Fletch n Connor will score goals.

    If there was a chance Salah from Chelsea would be my choice.

    I agree fella, but we're still short of creative quality when you consider Alvarez still need time and Giacc has become quite injury prone(praying it's behind him) and the other thing is pace. We have none and need some desperately.

    No worries fella.

    How much would he set us back do you reckon? Can't beleive Hull had him but didn't go through because of the medical. Kicking themselves they must be.

    I'd sooner have Salah & Bruma than a striker and balance the side.

    Austin we should have had when he went QPR but I think at time we were scared as Wickham hadn't shown, he's a good goalscorer.

    Rhodes must be desperate for a move now, no real progress at Blackburn, but I'd imagine we'd look abroad.

    We've been linked in Italy with Pazzini on loan, seems an odd link, slow but a consistent goalscorer, also Paloschi of Chievo, really rate the lad but he doesn't score enough.

    Me, I'd go for Lassoga from Hamburg, Doubt we'd have the money to pull it off though, he's a ****ing bruiser that lad, powerful as ****, scored 15 in 25 or so for Hamburg.

    We need players/ a player who can quickly and effectively link back to front, before we need a striker. A prolofic striker would be great, but hardly lieköy. I ain't holding my breath this window.....

    The idea of Bruma really excites me and I think it's a goer.

    Is Ings quick? And Rhodes?

    Austin isn't the answer IMO, v similar to Fletch from what I've seen.

    We need someone who can play on the shoulder of the last defender and run in behind. Doesn't even need to have top quality, pace is desperately needed

    Ings is quick in bursts, which is good enough, Rhodes, not really, again he's similar to Fletch, finds pockets of space.

    Rhodes can shoot from range though, something we lack in all of our strikers.

    Ings would be a good fit actually.
