Top 6 buying strikers in January

[seanbeanstattoo]

Simply fact is we have good work ethic and team spirit but poor creative quality. CW cannot make a silk purse out of a sows ear. Until we get some serious investment we can 100 percent forget about the Premiership, Thank god we had a good start. Creative midfielders, pace and quality strikers needed for next season but as someone once said we need quality not quantity.

At the risk of upsetting some I have to beg the question why Wilder spent 6 months chasing Leonard and Holmes if he wasn't convinced they were the dogs. Maybe they are and need more time. Hope so.

Bought/loaned quality
Wolves - Afobe
Cardiff - Madine
Villa - Grabban
Derby - Jerome
Fulham - Mitrovic
Bristol - Kent

We get a loan signing thats been injured and a couple average players. We didnt wanna push on for play offs and we clearly cant compete with these teams

I understand the point you're making GoM, but for all of these, I'd consider those strikers (Kents a winger) as the icing on the cake for their squads. I think we're still making our cake, some might say, still finalising the recipe.


£6m for Madine, though? £6m!

Nowhere in my post am I criticising anyone rod. I also suggested they will come goo in time. Problem is we need the finished article now,not after pre season next summer. That's the difference between our budget and that of our competitors.
