We do need someone who can put there foot on the ball in the middle (yeah I know uptop is the biggest issue) But perhaps him in the middle with Smith on 1 wing with Eagles on the other plus Nepo to LB then atleast we will look ok in 2/3's of the pitch. Up top we are fucked although I'm expecting a 25 year old former Nantes Striker who has made 25 career appearances scoring just 2 goals to come in by the end of the week. I agree. Last season I’m sure Morais played in the middle against us up here. He could be good ‘older head’ in the middle. I think his days as a winger have gone now.

No. We can sign free agents up to the last Thursday in November though. As we did when AL first arrived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hands on Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Maybe some other club/s offered to buy Nepo and Branger and in their haste Marco & Mo signed replacements and the sales fell through or they are being sold to clubs with a later deadline ie La Liga or Ligue 1 (23.00) and Scotland (Midnight).

ShireBlue Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Two midfielders in. Absolute beauty. Fuck it, let’s get another keeper in, just in case. Thinking back to Crawley at home last season, they were the most horrible bunch of cynical gits I’d seen at BP in a very long time. We might need a bit of that this season.

As this cluster fuck continues, I am getting to the point of not really caring what happens now. I know it won't last but its so wrong me feeling this way. All it needed was a dece t striker in to re ignite a bit of interest but even this seems beyond the Clown and his cohorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, with this forward line the thousands of wingers we have are no use at all. Our hope I suppose is that we do have some decent footballers (Fage, Eagles, Moráis) and we could become a second rate Barcelona - I think that qualifies me as in the optimistic camp.

oafc1955 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 A 5th rate Barcelona would be a tad optimistic just now...it just shows these ’s are oblivious to demands in this division. When the pitch has deteriorated around the January window we will really struggle with this powder puff lot. I would settle for survival right now!

Everyone can see we need a striker. If the people in charge of these signings can't see that,they have no business being near a football club. Really can't put into words the frustration in feeling that we haven't signed a striker. Expected 1 deadline day signing and it to be a striker. I can't get my head round it, I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. Am I on my own here? It's fucking freaking me out that they can't see we needed one. Do they pay attention on game days? Do they even give a shit? Surely it's not good business sense to not score any fucking goals. Can they not see this formation we are playing is not working? I feel like bashing my head against a wall I feel I'll get more luck What the fuck is going on. Going out on a limb here, but reading between the lines.... you think we may need a striker ?
