    Nowt to worry about atm. Played very well in the first half at Villa. Excellent second half last night. We’ll have a new CF hopefully before the weekend, not ruled out Isak the bastard yet, if he somehow gets reintegrated.
    Lose this, I might slavver on my pillow. Definitely not a full bed wet like some folk.

    You're definitely on a wind up. He's clearly not good at scoring... Look at the goals per game.

    Anderson was prolific at U21 level btw.. We're a champions league club now

    He rarely gets a chance and late sub appearances aren't a proper chance. We saw him scores vs Leicester from the bench at the end of last season and last night as well straight from the bench.

    You're writing him off by saying he's not good at scoring when he hasn't had a proper chance, and Leeds is clearly a great opportunity for him. We're unlikely to have a new striker in by the Leeds game (we need one in by the end of window), but Osula is fine for this game.

    We need to sign a new striker.

    This is the match day thread for the Leeds match and I would like to see Osula start as striker vs Leeds.

    OK so after all that you agree anyway.

    I know it is I made it...

    I'd agree I'd rather see him than Barnes any day of the week.

    I said from the start we need to sign a striker, everyone thinks this, it's not your idea to agree with.

    Why would you have Barnes rather than Osula? Both will play with Osula in the middle. They're not similar players.

    Which is the default position of the debate, so you definitely agree.

    Barnes was awful and I don't think he looks even remotely happy either.

    I'd play Ramsey Osula and Elanga
    .. Maybe even Willock... Barnes really looks like he's aged into a 40 year old early. Legs have completely gone.



    We need to keep the ball especially away from home.

    So if we lose here without a striker recruited that would be 8 point lost. If that were to happen, and NUFC as a club have willfully let that happen, we could have alternatively blown £1B on transfers and the points deduction would probably have been there or thereabouts.

    And if we lose every game this season we will be relegated. And if we never ever win another game we will drop out of the league. And if

    Or, we could win on Saturday, have bought a good striker and not sell Isak and reintegrate him into the team successfully.

    Let’s agree not to whinge and cry until the circumstances merit it. Agreed?

    Well you disagreed then said you agreed right from the start.

    Actually at the start you were arguing about the difference between the use of the term proper striker...you're never in the same debate... It's a scatter approach.. Either you're a very good wum or you're taking a cocktail of medicines.

    None of it matters.

    When I said you think wrong it was clearly related to you thinking I was winding you up about Osula. Ie when I said he has 19 career goals and you disputed it.

    I was clearly talking about Osula's goals, and that's obvious even with you cutting off the rest of my post which confirms beyond any doubt it was about Osula's goals.

    Yeah but that wasn't what you were arguing about initially in the thread anyway. It was just something separate you funnelled into...

    Ultimately my position was that we don't have a proper striker and need one and you do actually agree with that.

    We don't agree on osulas attributes..hes more of a fwd than a striker and yes there's a difference....we can argue that but what's the point.. We disagreed pages ago on that anyway.. It doesn't matter.
