How Dry should our Powder be?

I'm going to say this to you once. Only once. Only once should I or will I expect to have to tell you this, so listen up.

You had better fucking well support Solanke when he joins us, whether he hits the ground running or not. Don't you bloody dare scapegoat him the way that happened to Brennan Johnson.

Got it? Good.
Hmm, ok dear. Whatever you say. I don’t recall scapegoating Brennan Johnson but never mind.

Have some lunch and a bit of a lie down. There’s a good lad.
 
What a time to be alive!

There aren’t many available striker options out there atm. So If we do sign Solanke I will be pleased. Its far from being an exciting signing but it will improve us and will provide competition / rotation with Richy.
 
We were first linked with making a move for Solanke at the end of the January window by the sun so we’ve obviously been in for him for a while. All very easy to pretend to be itk we were after him once it’s in the news.

I still firmly believe the only real info gained is by complete random encounters with a player rather than someone who gets info drip fed to them. Or an agent spilling the beans or someone being friends with a player.

This is because of NDAs put in place by the clubs. Why would you risk losing your job or being sued by leaking info online? No professional person is doing that.
 
Solanke must surely replace Solomon? If he and the usual suspects leave this would be our UEFA squad of 21 non club trained players. Assuming we bring in club trained KWP as back up RB/LB we need one more off the list if we want to sign another player.

Was wondering if you could get away with not registering Forster for the 8 Europa league group stage games to free up another spot, you can always change that before the knockouts if needed. Just go with Vic and Austin as back up and it would allow us to go for another overseas player if needed. Could still have Forster as back up for Prem
