It’s deadline day and what this forum needs is a poll and a place to debate the most pressing issue heading into deadline day.
Striker or lack of.
Based on rumours from well respected sources
Che Adams - Our current top striker was expected to sign a new contract, but missed the paper and accidentally signed a loan agreement to Wolverhampton. In a panic he signed the contract extension at the second time of asking, but that wasn’t enough to prevent him being exiled to Birmingham for a year.
Tall Paul - Totem Paul has not featured at all this pre-season and looks set to go back to Genk either in a swap or some other way.
Sekou Mara - Looks like a loan move to Werder Bremen has been agreed for the confused Frenchman
Dom Ballard - The u21s top scorer from last season and back to back hat trick maker doesn’t look like he’ll get a chance here and has been rewarded with a year at Reading and Ruben Selles.
This leaves Adam Armstrong as our only striker. A players whose two recent man of the match performances have come from
him playing in midfield!
Saints have however recognized the issue and look set to complete the £8m signing of Sunderland Striker Ross Stewart, with one small caveat - He is out injured for at least a month.
How shall we get out of this mess, who should the club sign?
