Eh? Our current crop of forwards cost us many points with their terrible finishing last season, why are they being so easily excused?

Reading some of the comments on here you’d be under the impression that there’s a cauldron of hate each time Connolly enters the pitch, which for those of us that do attend games know is just not the case.

Because it’s embarrassing and probably shouldn’t be used by anyone who considers themselves to be an adult.

Is anyone sensible really saying that he’ll never make it ? The most common noise is that people feel he should go on loan to the Chamionship to get more minutes, goals and experience.

Old barn door Benteke scored more goals than Maupay last season, not bad playing in an awful Hodgesaurus team.

5 goals in 42 Premier League appearances, and 6 appearances with zero goals for ROI. That’s most unlike you to exaggerate the truth to charge your narrative.

It’s a bit awkward that Benteke scored more league goals than Maupay last season, no? Out forwards/strikers don’t play just one position, signing Edouard would not mean he’s automatically first, second or third choice, you’d likely find most games where all 3 started together. For the price...

Out of interest, why do you automatically assume Edouard couldn’t replace Maupay but definitely replaces Benteke?

I’m genuinely surprised so many Albion fans actually thought we were going to sign a forward. Clearly Gonzalez and Nunez were the chosen ones, our recruitment strategy is very specific, if we don’t get the primary targets we simply don’t do business, we were never going to buy an Nketiah or loan...

The club have done well by greatly reducing the squad size and moving on lots of players, Mwepu is an intriguing signing and I’m excited by Cucurella’s signature, having said that the squad feels imbalanced and lacking in two very key areas, firstly we have no pace, we’re completely and utterly...

Counting Trossard as a striker? I know he’s had to fill in there on a few occasions but a striker he most certainly is not.

Has anyone mentioned “bed wetters” yet? Utterly deplorable.

Well this is a truly uplifting thread.

It’s Sheff Weds.

2. Cucurella and Sima.

I’m still keeping my fingers crossed for Stephy Mavididi.

This is going well…

:lol: I should bloody hope not, I only turned 39 on Saturday, though my shiny head does age me a tad.

We absolutely must have someone coming in, but the meltdown will be comically catastrophic if we haven’t.
