Summer transfers 14:08 - Aug 20 with 518 viewshype313

I've been more than impressed with our recruitment so far, think we have bought wisely, bought with logic and added some real physicality to our squad.

I'm actually quite confident we can keep teams at bay and make ourselves hard to beat with our backline and CDM's, the Keeper will also be key and whilst he has the size, obviously the jury's still out long term, however, I'm sure he'll be an asset.

Where my concerns lay currently is the striker department, Ensciso will get goals, I'm sure Fatawu will contribute, but he will bring more assists and create, rather than get goals himself, and Maeda will be a pest.

But, for me, the difference between finishing 17th to 18th will be a striker, and this has been our Achilles heel for a number of windows now, get that right and we can be a real problem for this league, get it wrong and it could be the difference between staying up and going down, you only have to look at Calvert-Lewin and Brobbey to see what a difference a prolific striker can do.

Let's hope Ashton has a diamond up his sleeve, then we will have lift off.

inclined to agree, the signing of delap elevated that window from very poor to reasonable.

failing to sign a decent 9 for the 4th window in a row could ruin an otherwise successful summer. if we also lose hirst, that's getting closer to a dereliction of duty!

I'm hoping the fact that we've let George go is because we are about to announce someone, hence the Number 9 shirt is still free, otherwise I'm a little pessimistic going onto a season with Emmerson and Al Hamadi...

We’re bound to be after someone.

Having just sorted out my fantasy football team, I can suggest one of Haaland, Thiago or João Pedro.

I have the impression that Emersonn is going to be very effective at creating space, chaos and opportunity for the other forwards, particularly Sindre, Enciso and Maeda to take advantage of. I think goals will be well spread across our front 4, rather than relying on a traditional centre forward.

This has been and is often the case anyway, but the energy our whole attacking department seems to have adds to this I think.

Good work by Philogene...... GREAT WORK BY PHILOGENE!!!

I'd take a 57yr old Batistuta over AAH.
