[Albion] Is the equation as simple as, no striker in before the end of the transfer window = Down

[Bring back Bryan wade!!]

I’m not bedwetting just interested in NSC’s view on this?

 

[Stat Brother]

Yes.

 

[Ernest]

No strengthening at all = Hello Championship

 

[Hugo Rune]

 

[sparkie]

As long as his middle name isn't Barndoor...

Luckily there is a week and 90 odd minutes to get the signature.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

No. Fact.

 

[Deadly Danson]

Of course not.

 

[raymondo]

No, not necessarily. So long as our strikers stay injury free.

 

[blue-shifted]

Just double checked and we're 7-2 to go down, the least likely of the bottom 6 to do so.

Clearly you're wrong. On the other hand we might get someone in and still go down. It's probably fair to say that if we did buy an "oven ready" striker who came in and banged in a few goals, it would reduce the chances of dropping out

And it's not just about getting any old striker, they've got to be fit (not always the case), and they would have to be better than we have. Not easy in January.

 

[MJsGhost]

Is that not missing an “IT”?!

No. But here's a better equation.

 

[Weststander]

Quality first team CF brought in - 90% chance of staying up.

Not - a 50:50 call.


IMHO.

Completely agree.

The bookies odds in effect deem that we’ll finish above Villa, West Ham and Watford.

That may be unlikely based on the willingness of the former two to spend whatever it takes, and Watford have several quality players who’ve found form under Pearson.

Unless we too recruit wisely in the next 7 days.

 

[SULLY COULDNT SHOOT]

Southampton = Ings -
Watford - Deeney
Villa will go down
Norwich - Pukki
Bournemouth - can go down
West ham - could go down...


common denominator? - striker.... Us? Maupuy on 6 and .... nothing else.

Therefore - hell yes!!!

Sums it up for me.

 

[AmexRuislip]

This will explain Potteball and the answer about another striker.
Enjoy

 

[Milano]

Yes and I’ve been saying it’s binary since the beginning of December.

Potter also needs to pick his first 11 and give them a proper run. Far too much swapping.

Seven, if we're being accurate. Ditto Maupay. I'll give you Pukki, although few expect Norwich to stay up, so what does that prove? Ings, fair enough, but his form means that Southampton look as though they've escaped the prospect of relegation.
