I very much doubt Leon Clarke will become our 9 this coming season. He scored again for Wolves last night, which is six in six pre-season games and very much in first team.

 

Would have been great but we need to look elsewhere, if we are.

We can't afford his wages, he normally starts off seasons with a bang and tails off after Christmas so we might see him as as part of a deal that takes our 20 goal leading scorer (Clarke Harris) to Wolves in January.

That's my prediction but I'm hoping LJ secures someone to share the load for JCH as Bove, Turner and Philliskirk are more long term and next season sub strikers in my opinion. That's unless Philliskirk gets an extended run if we don't sign a number 9 and he scores consistently. Would be interesting to see if Danny and JCH can form a partnership...

Agree not sure whose available but hope there is some money for an experianced number 9, someone in the Lita mould would suit but wage demands may scupper that.

It'll be a Prem youngster loanee I reckon...that's if we fill the number 9 slot this transfer window. If we sign Forte, he'll be 11. If he's 9 then I guess LJ believes we have sufficient in place to score goals...
