    Ok, so Yarmo has been used as a right forward against Wycombe.

    Arnie has been subbed and Hugill is on.

    This suggests to me we may need to add another striker to the squad.

    Hernandez is currently away due to the WC

    Plus Antonio isnt fit enough to play

    Feel we are probably ok
  • OldCastleSwiftOldCastleSwift
    Wouldn't surprise me to see both of those sold, Champo.

    If they stay, we may just about be ok ;ok

    I think in general you need 3 strikers if you play 1 up front, with a midfielder who can fill in if needed.

    We have Arnie, Chicha and Hugill. We can’t count Carroll because of his injury record. So, I think we’re fine. If Hugill goes, we need to replace him.

    I agree, but untill they leave i cant see it

    Feel we will be playing with a lone striker the majority of this season

    Give it time ;biggrin

    It looks like Pellegrini knows what and also who he wants and I'm sure he has a far better idea of what we need than any of us on here.
    I've never known a transfer window like it, even when it lasted virtually all season until the end of March.

    Considering the amount of goals conceded we almost needed a new team

    Maybe our strategy is to field 2 teams at the same time. I wonder if anyone will notice if we field 22 players?

    Be happy for fringe players to go because our squad is getting stronger day by day at the moment, I’ve slated the board for the spend but fair play to them they’ve so far exceeded my expectations
  • stevesteve
    ;hmm How many of our fringe players are injured,hard to move them on ;biggrin
  • LukerzLukerz
    Whilst only a small thing, I like that all 7 of our signings have been permanent signings on minimum 3 year deals. Something about loans I just don't like & I don't think they offer a lot to the side longer term.

    Well thats not good
    I get not wanting to just oay whatever he wants but hes a first teamer and has the world at his feet, pay up guys

    Have to think we are gonna be a quiet summer incomming wise

    Saw an article of C&H saying that the club feel under no pressure to sell quickly, Pellgrini is gonma assess everyone before he starts to balance the books

    As usual dunno how reliable it is but if true its nice to hear pellgrini is.doing his analysis properly
  • Cuz1Cuz1
    Can see some departures now 4 maybe 5 and maybe a settlement of ac contract a shame but injury as stopped him from cutting it with us imo
  • LukerzLukerz
    Thing is the window will go from being a success to a failure if we flog 4/5 first team players because the depth will disappear again. These rumours about Obiang, Kouyate, Antonio etc being available. Will just mean there isn’t much behind the first XI.

    Thank you mr Gold and Mr Sullivan. Nice work and a hugely strong signing spree ;clap ;biggrin
    And apologies once again for the morons at the Burnley game. ;doh
