Suspicious minds more like! Which is appropriate given the player who shalt cometh good and bedazzle the naysayers and Naylorsayers alike...

If we sign another striker, which we will need to at some stage then yes. Even top two if it's the right man.

How about Tex !

Wonder what his future is. Not in Liverpool's Europa League 25.
Although he did make the Prem League 25.
Says ominously that Brendan Rogers will give him chances at Liverpool in this interview a few days ago.

He has been training with the first team squad and appearing for their u21s.
He's 23 in January.

I sincerely hope so.
I think the only player that would pretty much guarantee it would be Jordan Rhodes.
I know, ridiculously expensive but a proven 20 goal a season championship striker and still only 25.
Playing for a side that at best will be bottom half of the table and I imagine he is beginning to eye up opportunities to play in the premiership as he is nearing his peak.
If we are there or thereabouts in January might be able to force it through.
Scored 7 in his last 5 games.
Signing Calleri may work, if it comes off, but is certainly no guarantee.
Its easy to "spend" someone elses money!

I was thinking this exact thing the other day.

Even, if by January, we have slipped out of the top 2 but are still within striking distance of the automatic promotion spots then I expect us to strengthen our hand in the transfer window.

I also expect us to go large and suspect Calleri is the top target...We must be seriously interested for Barber to get on a plane and fly to Buenos Aires to try and negotiate a deal. But if Calleri is a non-starter then we should definitely go after Rhodes...He will be fairly pricey but it will be worth the investment if it helps to deliver us Premier League riches.

I am not sure it would take much to convince him to come either as I imagine he would like to play in the top flight and that certainly will not be happening at Blackburn Rovers anytime in the next few seasons. Getting him in would be a real statement of intent and could well be the final piece of the jigsaw!

Albion & England forever.

This has got to be our year, Shirley?

 

[dangull]

Its a great position to be in at the moment, but the frustrating thing is we should have been at least 4 points better off over the last 3 games. I suspect we may rue that some time later in the season.

I think it is our year after being the "nearly team" for so long. I think the desire of the players
this season so far has been top rate and that isn't going to go away. If anything it will get
better.
