    I get that, I think receny bias plays in because the second of the season him and the team were poor. But he was injured, in and out the team, the lads weren’t really trying to

    his finishing and shot placement is good, the stats show that and his movement is good, hopefully a fresh start in the premier league we get the Wilson we had pre February when he was fit and the lads hadn’t given up

    Agree about Muniz mind. Canny player, but that is a lot of cash for him.

    Isak could get 30+ if he goes to Liverpool

    Looking at it as a realist there's a tipping point that's quite pronounced.

    Once you start to get into the realms of 20 goals a season the player will be worth more than we can afford and snapped up by a bigger club.

    If he's good enough to score 20+, in a relegation side, he'd have probably been signed for one where he'll get 25+.

    This mystical striker tree must be in Narnia.

    For me it’s simply due to the fact that we have already have Mayenda. I don’t want three strikers who are all a 7/10 and giving a selection headache, I want one who’s a 9/10 and the clear starter every week. If we didn’t have Mayenda and we had an older, established striker I think Guiu would be a great option as a back up. He could come in and bang 15 goals for us for all I know, which would be brilliant.. he’s obviously got a big reputation just would’ve rather had someone further along in his development who I’d expect to hit the ground running. Understand that’s easier said than done but you’d like to take your chances on someone from a top 5 league who’s consistently scored goals rather than someone who’s not really played much football.

    <laugh>Always lined him actually. Has his limitations, but he's a good story. Had to claw his way up the leagues.

    Not hard getting knackered and dropping a clanger playing for Wilder either mind. A lot of headless running around in that side.

    I think we'd all like that. Hopefully we will. But those players are the hardest to find, and the most expensive to recruit.

    Absolutely considering he’s just got 23 in 34 league games for the filth

    Exactly

    a guarantees 10 goal striker here is one that gets 15+ at a better side

    we have to find a gem and hope they have a good breakout season it’s a simple as that

    That's it in a nutshell ...

    ... you're basically looking for the Loch Ness monster and searching the depths.

    I understand that mate but strikers are the hardest and most expensive signings to make, the fees being floated around for the likes of Muniz are crazy and it's not guaranteed to come off if someone like that does come. However if you can get a 19 year old lad who is slightly more under the radar, you don't have to pay a fee and could get double figure goals from him there's a much smaller risk.

    I wonder if there is a slight change around Wilson and Mayenda being cover for wingers and a more experienced striker along with Guiu coming in?
