    We can definitely play without a striker, it just limits our options tactically

    He already seems aware of the fact he'd have to receive long balls, with his back to goal ...

    ... then hold it while our wide men get up speed running towards the box,.

    That'll play Clarke/Roberts/whoever in on goal. He can then turn and get into those positions where balls slid across the six yard box can be clipped in.

    Gelhardt tried to do that but was knocked around too much ...

    ... not his fault imo, just doesn't have the bulk to play that role.

    I think that aspect of the game comes naturally to him which will be very useful. Looks at home using his bulk to block players, hold it up, knock players out of the way.

    I’m maybe a bit ahead of myself on Hemir but he looks ready to go to me.

    He will give us the back to goal and aerial options. He is always on the move and has good touch.

    He looks real to me.

    Mowbray seems to be implying he's nowhere near fit ...

    ... which can only be a good thing imo.

    I think we're picking up good players who've just become a bit demoralised.

    Hopefully a good sign he's off somewhere. Fingers crossed it's too us. Preston signed a forward permanently today so it'll not be them

    They're skint, that Stewart is the first person they've bought in years. No way they can afford him and Cannon. Imo

    Injured according to Everton, suits our current criteria for strikers

    Aye we will handle most games well, it’s in the more physical teams we missed the likes of Stewart. Both defensively and up front.

    Im quietly confident already for the season.

    They've paid fees for three of their signings already in this window. Cannon reported to be another loan but Everton waiting for bids.

    We need another striker in but if being patient and determined lands us another of the quality of Hemir, then crack on.
