We’ve invested heavily which is great but if Mayenda is our main striker for the majority of the season we’re in trouble. I’m not saying he won’t develop into a great player but we really need an experienced forward.
I can’t see a starting striker coming in like would leave one of the 3 we have getting very limited minutes, would take one but can’t see it winger centre back and a few ‘projects’ is my prediction and I think the winger will be a project to an extent it won’t be a starter
I’ll be worried if that’s the case mind. We need to be taking these half chances and we need a winger who can give some proper competition to Adingra and Talbi
I’m wrong about 99.9% of things mate so take some comfort in that just think they’ve been signed as starters so it will be someone in the mould of the Salzburg lad and lucumi if Bologna ever back down
I think Daghim is more than good enough to be the bench winger and someone like him would've made a real difference today instead of Roberts or forcing ELF wide. A CB is really important but i'd put another winger right up there in terms of importance. I can't see us going huge on someone like Bakwa but anyone to take away Roberts' minutes is good for me.
I know regis said hes happy even if we dont do more business, but today showed what weve been discussing on here, cb and another wide option needed and weve got a hell of chance. Key minutes for lads on Tuesday, get a win, and then another big SOL atmosphere next week to try and get us over the line. I'm still comfortable with the striker situation but get the concerns, winger and cb and ill be happy.
I really do think we need a striker with some pedigree mind. Mayenda’s chance are the chances that need to be taken. I do like the look of Guiu and I think he offers us a physical presence.
We mustn’t forget it’s a new , young team and they will take few weeks to know each others games. Will naturally improve.
Although the positive is he will be match fit when we sign him and he hasn't thrown his toys out demanding a move
We need to get it done. Ballard can not be trusted, as expected and as history has for told. We need someone else.
We'll get him imo mate. I'm the last person to advocate overspending (Im an accountant ffs haha) but we want this lad and we'll make it happen I think, even if a bit pricey.
Im sure we wont over pay and no doubt t have other options. Got a week left to get what we need and I trust the club to get what they want
