Bent - 20 goals per season.
Gyan - 12 goals in his first season.
Welbeck - terrifyingly good. Chipped in with a few for your lot too.
FFWD
Wickham - no goals in sight.
Jing Dong Poo - has a worse goals to games ratio than none other than Lee Dong Gook does in the K-League, remember him? 23 and 0 for the Boro. Only 20 so could come good.
Bendtner - will get goals, but not as many as he did with better supply at Arsenal.
Sessegnon - not a striker, not a goal scorer, maybe get you 4/5 a year.
You're going to be missing about 20-25 goals a year there I'd say in comparison to the forwards you had at your disposal just 12 short months ago.
Take that amount of goals away from any team and you're in trouble, as far as your season objectives go.
Forget about Bruce for a minute, surely somebody did some research into these players before decisions were made? How has Super Niall allowed this to happen? Man Utd allowed 40+ goals to leave Old Trafford in 2009, guess what happened next...the title went hurtling towards Stamford Bridge, because he brought in only Michael Owen as a replacement. He then signed a 20 goals per season striker for £6m and the rest is history.
You got £20m for Jordan Henderson. You got £24m for Bent, probably £5m for Gyan for a loan for the season, plus maybe £8-10m when he leaves next year. Over £50m and your only goalscorer is on loan from Arsenal. How on earth is Niall Quinn doing a good job at Sunderland? You're deluded if you think the manager is pulling the strings at your club, that 7ft stack of useless turd is looking after Mr Short's investment and not even thinking about driving your club forward.
