[Albion] The annual NSC summer striker thread

[Pavilionaire]

I wonder whether we'll be linked with Paul Onuachu of Genk again, like we were last summer.

Back then it was us and West Ham linked, but the transfer free mentioned by Greedy Genk was in the region of £25-£30mill. Now he is one year older, another healthy goal return in 21/22 but Genk missed out on top 4 and ended up in 6th.

West Ham are apparently after Emmanuel Dennis so we might be in a good position. He'll turn 28 this week, the guy's 6 foot 7.

I used to have excellent contact with his agent, sadly I don't any more.

Would it shock me to see Braithwaite in a Brighton shirt? Not really, but probably not happening.

The Albionistas on my Twitter feed are going cra-cra about Vanilla listening to offers for Dings.

Am I missing something here, wouldn't touch him with a barge pole.

Quality not quantity re actual strikers.

We've already been there and done this with goas scored.

Probably me, but I can't find a stat there for headed goals.

We’ve already bought a very promising striker. Just a question of when he’ll be first team ready, it might not be for a year or two though.

If we’re going to sign a striker from the Belgium top tier, we ideally go for for the player with the most goals and with a healthy number of assists as well, preferably a couple of years younger.

Thank you, it took 32 posts for someone to get excited about the return of Aaron Connolly

Totally seriously, I still think he will become a star one day

Nketiah apparently due to sign a new 5 year deal at Arsenal on £100k a week, which I suspect was always the plan so can rule him out
