This transfer window has been seriously underwhelming but maybe ( clutching at straws ) it could prove a silver lining if Gray, Bergval and Moore bring youth ,energy, intensity and fearlessness to the team.
Though clearly the defensive issues of last season still need to be addressed and I , like many others, am fairly nonplussed at the prospect of Solanke leading the line….
Still time however… COYS.

Can’t see it myself unfortunately although it would be nice.
 
That's the market my friend, everyone who is available has flaws like that...even the flavour of the month Gyokeres' record doesn't come up favourably compared to Solanke...it just is what it is...

Market is really volatile and 1 breakout season these days earns you big moves, gotta move with the times.

Besides all that I don't think the scouts will just be looking at his goalscoring record and will be looking at what else he brings to the table...

Well he doesn't seem to have a bad injury record. Good at holding the ball up etc, I think i'd put him on par with Jonathan David.

Maybe we prefer Solanke because of his Premier League experience.
 
I just still don’t understand why not a single team has moved for Toney. Has a club told him not to go anywhere as they’ll come in for him late in the window? Either that or he will sign a new contract at Brentford. They won’t want to lose him for nothing.

POK said on the LWOS the other day that Arteta had a video call with Toney early in the window, and was put off him after it.
 
Is it just me or has this site lost some 'weight'?

Solanke is a strange one, ticks many boxes and yet I don't know, is that who we really need?

He's a player we could've went for at any time this summer, do leaving it until now in the hopes of shaving a few million off the initial price, seems a tad pointless for a club as rich as ours.

No other concrete lines at present, either they truly are managing to keep their cards close to their chest or we're being reactive again, waiting for others to do their business before we see what's left.
 
The same arteta who plays and defended Partey. I’m not sure I’d judge him on people’s characters. Nevermind some of his comments about conquering his wife. If anything, arteta not wanting him makes me want him!

Well yeah, but Ange is big on having the right personalities and characters, if Toney’s a bit of a knob then it isn’t going to happen
