    He’s had about 3-4 good goalscoring seasons.

    Including the season before last in La Liga and still got 14 G/A’s in 32 last season

    I wasn’t as bothered but I do think we need a striker similar to the players we’ve signed elsewhere pedigree wise

    Aye, I’m not dead against it. I don’t think every single player we sign needs resale value, ie Xhaka. Important to get a good balance. To be fair he managed 12 goals in the league last season but he only played 2400 minutes of football I think he was rotated a lot with Dybala and Shomurodov, so that’s not a bad return at all. Probably just looks a bit underwhelming because he scored double the season before and had less assists but Martinez at Inter only scored 12 in the league too.

    Re Bradley, I queried last night on here if he gets stuff right and the opinion was yes (some), no (the keepers), and worse (he's s hit)... I take it there was a twitter battle last night?

    Glad to see Cam is still with us.

    Ofcourse they mean something to an individual. However they work for a business,and the business will always look after its self.

    I was quite content. I didnt particularly want another striker. Then I heard a super duper one was imminent. Now we arnt after one. Now I'm gutted and we are now relegation certainties. <laugh>

    I still think we need one- not sure Mayenda/Isidor and Giui will get us enough between them , the 2 former have been pretty poor in front of goal in pre- season (when theyve played) and Giui is a total unknown

    Sometimes the best way a business can look after itself is by looking after its people/employees (ie managing expectations and not making promises if you can’t/won’t keep them) and sending the right messages in that regard to future employees.

    Especially when the people/employees are that businesses' main and most important and valuable assets.

    whos to say we're not after another striker?

    Barnes isnt the best at news sometimes or gets his lines crossed,
    other reports say that we are

    I’m ok with our striker options and there’s no need to bring someone in of a similar quality. However, I could see the benefit of bringing someone in who would move the needle for us. Someone with proven experience in top 5 leagues. That would be exciting.

    Winger and another defender and more pressing priorities imo, but you don’t always sign players in order of where they are needed on the pitch.

    would love to think that we beat our record transfer again this summer (£30 million plus).

    Couldn't have put it better myself.

    I believe, like others have already posted, we are streets ahead of them down the road
