[Albion] Andone / stikers

[DavidinSouthampton]

I think we'll struggle to score goals again this season from the recognised strikers, hoping the rest of the team's contribution is much greater than last.

Murray is still our best striker by some distance and we all know he can't play week in/out or even 90mins. Locadia doesn't strike me as reliable, Hemed tries hard but...Finally, I just have this feeling that Andone won't cut it. As for all the exciting promise of development signings, well, as we've seen, some aren't even geographically close to playing in the first term let alone bench warmers.

I don't know about glass half empty, has your glass got anything in it at all?...……..

……. or is it broken?

But his World Cup finished on 3 July, why wasn't he back training on the 24 July and ready to play last weekend.

I think it was noticeable that looking on Instagram etc the other players were working on their fitness all summer, runs, gym sessions etc whereas Jose had a holiday!

"CH: "Locadia is fine. He's been training. Andone is still quite not there. We expect him to train tomorrow or Monday.
"Jose hasn't quite made it." #bhafc

I hope he wasn't on life support.

Bit harsh considering this is widely recognised still and last seasons problem. Maybe you’ve had too many glasses...?

 

[McTavish]

I think they will be level with 25 goals each, Knocky and Izzy both clearing 15 goals each

Nothing from Dunk or Duffy? FFS that needs to be sorted - at least there was one last season. Hughton out!

What? "Andone won't cut it" is last season's problem?

Idiot! (scoring goals...)

Moron. What do you think Andone's supposed to do, not to mention Jahanbacksh?

I was on the tongue in cheek optimistic side of the thread - no slight intended...…..

I only chose four players to comment on. It didn't include Murray, Jahnwotsisface, Bissouma. And I am counting on every member of the 25 man squad scoring at some point, including each of the three goalkeepers.

My glass is positively and dangerously overflowing...….

Glenn played 90 minutes 11 times last season, 70+ mins a further 10 times and featured in every single League game for the club from End of Sept onwards (bar one) week in/out. Scored a few as well.
He’s (nearly) 35 , won’t go on forever but as with Bruno looks after himself.

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)

I’m guessing because we didn’t sign some Charlie Big Potatoes striker for zillions then it must be a failure, right?

Andone won't cut it based on?

Sweet F A.

Yeah go on then. I'll go for it.

How do you know that.

 

[LlcoolJ]

portlock is going to be disappointed with his contribution to this thread.

Exactly. Why haven't we signed a Christian Benteke .... oh, wait ...

 

[Barham's tash]

He will.

Indeed he is and travelled with the squad to Watford, albeit this photo makes it look like he’s almost a stowaway....

Either that or he photo shopped himself in after
