Dokko Posted August 23, 2025 Share Posted August 23, 2025 Glad we're not in a rush to get a striker in. Thankfully we're not desperate and running out of time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc123 Posted August 23, 2025 Share Posted August 23, 2025 I know they have tried, but we are into the second round of the season without a striker. Im not impressed got to say that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not impressed got to say that. It’s a disaster. We have no injuries in the striker department and yet we don’t have a striker we can field for more than five mins per game / that Howe is willing to trust for more than five mins. Fairly certain we won’t have one in until after Leeds then it’ll take some bedding in time so we probably won’t see the best of them until late October Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite simply have to get a body in, it would be stupid to go into a season of 4 comps with just a half arsed Isak, Osula/Gordon as our only options up top. We are desperate, whoever comes in we will be paying over the odds for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagSA Posted August 23, 2025 Share Posted August 23, 2025 Honestly, I am ready for Jackson now. He is for sale, has PL experience, good age and should not have the mental scarring of a Hojlund playing for Manure. And this should not be contingent on what happens to the rat. We needed a striker anyway. I suspect an issue could be that any striker we bring in now would want to know if they number 1 or backup to the rat, should he reintegrate. And that questions remains unanswered. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OoOGazOoO Posted August 23, 2025 Share Posted August 23, 2025 I genuinely cannot see Isak playing for us again and if he does, I have real doubts over his commitment given the conversations he had with Howe towards the end of last season and his respective displays in those end of season games. We really need 2 in my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
