I still expect us to splash some cash on a CM and again on a CF. Both are essential to us staying up. We will get both as well along with a RB and GK. We will no doubt break our transfer record on a number 9 and I expect that unless it is Negredo on a loan then we will spend £15/20 million on...
Struggling to get the right one in for the right price maybe. I'm sure I sound like a broken record but there really isn't many 10 goal experience PL strikers we could go and get. We could go abroad and try and lure a decent one in. We maybe lucky where we get one in from abroad who really hits...
Saying he didn't do well is harsh and this is where I think people will be disappointed. He scored 9 goals which was more than one third of all the goals Middlesbrough scored. Made him joint 5th highest striker outside the top 6 clubs. Problem Middlesbrough had next highest scorer was on 4 as...
And I'm sure this is where the striker will come from but not 1 player last season who made it to double figures with the exception of ibrihimovic has not had at least 1 full season under their belt. The point I'm trying to make is that there really isn't that many players outside the top 6 who...
Put in to a bigger context
Only 6 out of 21 players to score 10 or more so not play for a top 6 club.
2 are now at Bournemouth in King and defoe 16 and 15
Benteke - Palace 15
Llorente - Swansea - 15
Deeney and Vokes - 10
Clubs that stayed up
West Ham - Antonio 9
Stoke - Crouch - 7
West Brom -...
Murray, Hemed and Baldock all have some goals in them at this level. They are all going to play a part this year. Some of them may surprise us as well.
Other problem I can see is there are not that many 10 goal a season PL strikers that have played in the PL that are going t come to us. Having looked at the last seasons stats all the 20 goal plus strikers play now for a top 6 side, those 15 goals plus bar Benteke, Llorente and King are also top...
There is the right striker out there for us, we are not going to spend 10-15 million on someone we don't actually want just because fans on NSC want a striker ASAP. As premier league teams and other top European teams finalise there squads there are going to be a number of good strikers that...
We were ok. Neither side was great. Seems we are adapting to the new 4-5-1. Gross looks good in it. Think it will work well with March left and knockaert right offering attacking threat. Murray seems isolated to much though. He's great at hold up play but when 1 up top you have to either support...
Terrible news. Met him once very briefly. Thanks for everything you have done for every fan to enable us to enjoy football at the AMEX. RIP true. A true BHAFC legend
Tom Lawrence again doing the rounds. 8 million the rough fee. Can play anywhere across the 3 behind the central striker. Personally think it's another rumour going around in circles
