Why an example of our worst?

Why is it STILL a problem when we have added both Locadia and Andone to our squad since this time last season? (as well as AJ and Bissouma who are both attack minded players)

Unless the fitness issue is an injury?

Hughton said he returned with a "minor fitness issue"

Signed!

Not really - he has an injury. With Locadia, Murray and Hemed fit it would be foolish to rush him into the first team until 100% ready

Picked up a minor knock while away with Colombia

That "Window" was about 45 minutes on a weekday morning when most people would have been at or travelling to work!

16 tickets available online - 230+ points needed. Just got 3 tickets :)

Be warned : It can get rather addictive!

Andone was scoring goals on Spain which is a similar standard. Locadia may come good - just needs a period of games where he is fit - too early to write him off. Think we were just unlucky with Mitrovic - he wanted to come to us last season but Newcastle wouldn't sell to a relegation rival. Went...

How many proven PL quality strikers do any clubs outside the top 6 sign? They are VERY expensive. Even Mo Salah before this season would not have been described as a proven premier league striker. We have signed 2 strikers who have done very well overseas - hopefully they will do the same here...

I suspect we may see him further back with Bissouma playing in the support role - may be completely wrong though!

But only because of injuries. We have 4 strikers for one position - it's just sods law that 3 have picked up injuries pre-season!

I think £1 million (including add ons). Poor guy came on for his debut in the 86th minute with Millwall 2-0 up. Promptly conceded 2 goals to draw 2-2

I get what you are saying and we may be weak at the moment but all squads will have weaknesses at times due to injuries. Overall I don't think this is an area we are weak in with all 4 fit. Andone and Locadia do not have a history of long injuries so once fit should provide the options we need...

Every club gets injuries - we can't strengthen a position every time we get injuries or we'd end up with a squad of 50!

Frustrating at the moment I know but is it really a weakness when we have Murray, Locadia, Andone and Hemed fighting for 1 position? Is there any other position on the pitch where we have 4 players for 1 position?

Fully agreed. No concern for the environment at all: https://www.birdguides.com/news/us-endangered-species-act-under-attack/

Agreed. Fingers crossed some of the attacking players are back to full match fitness soon.
