Honestly I'm more fussed about no defenders coming in rather than no strikers. Walcott should be back after the international break and I imagine if Sanogo doesn't start scoring then Theo will get a run out up front. Sanchez as well, and even Podolski if all else fails. However at the back we have 2 recognized CBs. Sure we couldn't sign a top player to just sit on the bench, but a young player would have been fine with that!

Sanogo is not going to score 20 goals this season, so he's not good enough. Plenty of players available. Wenger, as he has been for a while now, is a problem, and refuses to find solutions.
German Window CLOSED Portugal Window closes in 5 minutes. So now we don't even have an open rumour about a proper DMF. I guess we'll probably attempt to sign a 4th choice CB, and nothing else.
We're going to need to rely on goals from midfield. Problem is our 2 goalscoring midfielders are both playing poorly as well. Need Walcott back as soon as possible
James Olley ‏@JamesOlley 1m Danny Welbeck is at #afc's training ground. He would prefer joining #afc over #thfc & is trying to force through a deal. Wenger's move now.
It almost means that, as you won't sell someone you can't buy a replacement for, except for deadweight.
Jebus... And we were being picky about Balotelli thinking we'd look for better alternatives. I'd take Balotelli at maximum rage potential right about now.

There's been a sudden shift in where the money is going on Danny Welbeck's next club, with Arsenal now odds-favourites to land the Manchester United striker.
Apparently he would prefer to go to Arsenal, but Man Utd would prefer it if he went to Spurs. Strange that, Spurs will be direct rivals while Arsenal are clearly better atm ...
