We spent 179m on A RW and two strikers, and we still need a new RW and a striker. Incredible really.

It’s hard for the club too justify spending even more money in those positions next summer, I really can’t see it.

Guimareas and Thiaw have scored the same amount of PL goals as Woltemade, Barnes, Wissa and Elanga and only 5 less if you include Gordon and Murphy into that as well.

 

5 of the players in the latter list were "premier league ready".

I'd give the summer business a 1 at best. Horrid.

Unfortunately this is the reality of it.

 

Woltemade isn't a striker, and even if he makes it with us in a deeper role = need a striker.

Wissa I don't think is going to work out for us, I would see if we can get some money back for him.

I think a lot might depend on how Wissa does from now until the end of the season. I wouldn’t be surprised if they went for an upcoming talent on the continent though (if they’re aware of any). At this stage relying entirely on the strike force we have isn’t viable moving forwards.

It's incredible/commonplace. The difference for us is that mistakes weigh so much heavier because of the rules.

I think a striker is absolutely imperative. If we have proper ambitions a 20 goal forward is a must.

I'd expect us to as well. Osula will still have suitors in the summer.

100%. Woeful recruitment last summer. Major fuck ups on Elanga and Wissa in particular.

Not too many of them about nowadays. Unless paying stupid money (which we did , and is now looking like an expensive waste based on a decent purple patch) or take a gamble on an unknown, risky or out of sorts player (like Cisse or Ba)

It’s why I wish we would try and make some clever signings than knowingly pay over the odds.
