With jrod back and Gallagher and Seager coming through seem sorted up front.
?Does his signing mean an end to our interest in Austin because I will be very disappointed if we go into the new season with only Pelle as our only real centre forward

Agreed. I'd add that I don't think we can bank on Rodriguez performing that well this coming season. He may be great but I wouldn't rely on it - he's been out for over a year and may take at least a season to get back to where he was, if he ever does.Could still do with a striker, I think. I like Jay playing wide...his diagonal runs from the flanks cause all manner of chaos.
Juanmi's another who fits with what I'm guessing is our end goal; we're not planning to wait around in attack next year.
Yep, me too.Sky do make me laugh. Only 8 or so hours behind everyone else, with breaking news "Sky Sources understand".

Know sod all about him but would still like another attacker/striker signed up.
Have they announced Jim magilton yet
Just looked him up on Google and note he is 1.70m. So quite short. We have had quite a few smallish players in the past who have been more than useful. The three Wallace's, Austinn Hayes, Bobby Stokes, Alan Ball (the greatest England international ever - Jack Wilshere, you are not fit to tie the man's bootlaces!!). Any more small ones that were useful?
