djbroxybear 660 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 I hope we get in a striker as i fear after watching the games this season it is evident one is required, we are missing too many chances Jela is not an out and out striker and neither is Lafferty. Healy is not going to get much game time he has come off bench for last 15mins of two games this season, Beattie i don't know his situation (injured again) and Hemmings is out till Xmas, Naismith is also not an out and out striker. If we get injurys to Jela and Lafferty we will struggle.Whats your thoughts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiestystWATP 1 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 agree with most of ur comment m8 but jela is a out n out stricker and wen he finds form is going to fire the goals in for 4 in a row ...watch and see Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritishBear 34 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 We needed a striker in July, fast forward to now and it's plain to see we need one even more.We have been told by many to judge Whyte on the 1st September, come then we will no doubt be told to judge him on the 1st February, 2012.Where is the money Mr Whyte? 3 days left to prove you are not a liar.

DougieGers 26 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 I hope to see some a good striker signed in the next couple of days to push jelavic and lafferty all the way to become better players. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabmac1 34 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Not a chance unless it's a loan deal or if there is a 350.000 kicking about Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris182 6,510 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 will be gutted if Ally doesnt bolster our front line Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanther22 517 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 cant see a main striker coming in, perhaps a back up (but we have healy and beattie )bottom line we are going to be sticking with our first choice 8m pound front line - we cant afford to have either of those two sitting on the bench.

djbroxybear 660 Posted August 27, 2011 Author Share Posted August 27, 2011 Where do you suppose we get the money from for this striker?I think it will more likely be a loan mate from someone not involved with 25 man EPL squad, we need someone i know where you coming from.

stuart54 218 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 With the European money we've just pished against the wall - not a chance of a quality striker signing before the deadline.We'll roll out that declared roi Arsenal kid Rhys Murphy next week and that will be it.Really hope I'm totally wrong.

We may have to sell a few first and rightly so. We have numerous imposters in this squad and some who have incredibly just signed a new contract a month or two ago.

stuart54 218 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Would you rule out a loan move mate?If Ally and Durranty are really that pally with Mr Villa-Boas then yes, I'd take a Chelsea striker that cant make the 25 - or one from Arsenal, Liverpool. Spurs, Man Utd, Man City etc etc etc. A loan move looks more likely but again, I hope I'm wrong and we sign someone of quality. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought we may even got our fringe players out on loan Fleck etc, maybe things will speed up before now and wednesday. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicika Jelavic 7 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 I'm happy with Jela and Lafferty, but we need to bring someone in half decent at least. Healy is mega Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whyte is to me living within his means i thought he agreed with old board to put up 5m a year for players, to date he has spent just over a million net and the money to do Ibrox came from catering contractors fee. He has paid Lloyds debt and probobly took in over 20m in season tickets, CL, etc so where we stand sounds good reading. I think the money from CL qualification was gambled on bidding for the players we did excess of 8m now were out of Europe will we spend that money i doubt it, i see a Loan signing at most. We do have a Tax Bill to pay soon which could be 4.2m we do need to offload players aswell allot of work to be done before wednesday. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imodium 423 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 A loan deal from EPL top 6 team would be suffice. Hopefully we have someone identified and ready to come up as the last thing we want is an injury prone last minute desperation deal. I'll take Drogba or Rooney Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
