All depends on what happens with the likes of Kalas, Nagy, possibly Bentley to me. We’ll have already played 5 league games before the transfer window closes so lots is up in the air.

I suggest you trust in NP and wait and see what happens. I did not suggest in any way or form he has a striker he is looking at. He has budgets, he as KPI,s, he has goals most probably set that he has to acheive by the board of directors and the owners of the club and if he needs to ask for multi funds to bring in what he thinks is the correct fit to the club and also has the potential to get this club in to the Prem there must be a lot of protocals in place for him. Other positions as well he is probably looking at as well. Maybe there are deals going on behind the curtains as I suspect there are for other possible players to bring in. We all know Bentley is good and will attract some high pounds that could help NP bring in a potential forward. if Bentley kicks the bloody ball out again like he did last week and he has done it frequently before at the opposing team that then has scored then NP should cash in quick and get rid of him. I agree time maybe running out for some in regards to your expectations on a center forward that is required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season we were the worst team in the league in terms of creating chances (look at xG accumulated, for example). Creating good chances is my greatest concern with our team - not simply converting them. I do think we need a new striker ideally. However, there's a great need for that striker to benefit our 'general attacking play' (e.g. run in behind, hold the ball up, etc). It's not simply a case of finding someone to convert chances (you could argue that Wells might be sufficient for that). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the overspending allowef by Lansdown in the Johnson era and Covid that is preventing us signing one without selling. What I cannot understand is why we have not brought one on loan. The loan system is used by many of our rivals seems a step too far for us. Unfortunately I think we will regret this starting Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s ok & probably a more likely scorer than Chris Martin. He is 30 & only scored 10 last season though, which sort of makes my point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeAman08 Posted August 2, 2021 Report Share Posted August 2, 2021 I think we need someone with pace. Southampton have a young lad who has looked useful with lots of pace named Obafemi. Not a great goal scoring record but plays in premier league. The problem? They want 6m for him. We don’t have the ability to do that at the minute. Most championship clubs can’t afford that. So I think it needs to be kept in mind that transfer fees are staying about the same but there is a lot less money about at the minute. I’d love a striker but why rush it and get it wrong this summer and be stuck with someone? Think we need to stay up and build a strong foundation. Let us see where that puts us in January and next summer as we probably aren’t a striker away from playoff contention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's always the loan with a view to buy avenue, give us chance to look and the player a chance to prove themselves not saying in this case but always an option if needed, think your right as this is going to be a big season for us with a need to stay up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmersonsKev Posted August 2, 2021 Report Share Posted August 2, 2021 Maybe, maybe we have a goalscorer in our ranks in Nakhi Wells. Fingers crossed he's allowed to play through the middle. If we're going to play with 1 upfront as seems to have been the way in pre seasons I don't think another striker without one leaving will be the best way forward.
