This fella is a total gimp.

I think it's a reincarnation of 'Spurs Lion', who spent a few transfer windows trolling Spurs fans with nonsense before clarifying that he was a Chav and deactivating his account.

Yeah, just like 'Spud Cannon' and 'Yid Mallet', it was pretty obvious they were false flag ops in hindsight.

If only anyone had said "they are all full of shit, every single fucking one', maybe we could have avoided making these twats some coin.

Juve spent 80 million on Vlahovic and now are ready to take a big hit on him. I've been telling folks forever he is the Serbian Chris Woods. That's exactly what he'd be in the EPL. What kills me is Vlahovic Solanke are perfect understudies to an elite strike. They are the player that ENIC should have purchased years ago to protect the unicorn they found in the barn. One of these lads added to the Poch prime team prevents Kane becoming the arthritic wardrobe he's become. Shocking negligence by the club. So now we need another unicorn


My own scouting for the desperate upgrade of our forward line in the next two windows at the moment looks like. Oshimen, Openda, Marmoush,David, Delap, Mbeumo. Ideally any two from this lot thanks Danny. Thus caliber only.

I like Openda and Marmoush as well.

Delap in the summer is interesting. In a weird way his personality on the pitch reminds me of Vardy. Hes one of those nasty bastards that Poch loved but if you don’t sign them, you just know they will always score against Spurs.

Ship has certainly sailed for most of the players you listed. They're far too well known now. In our current transfer business structure, we need to find the next ones.

Your list is good but more serious clubs will certainly scoop them up.

I guess it’s about how you build your rotation

6 seniors and a youngster or 2 for 3 positions

Solanke - CF
Johnson - RF
Son - LF, CF
Odobert - LF, RF
RKM - RF, CF

Moore and Yang as your youngsters

Richy moves on.

Then we only really to need sort out the eventual succession for Son. Could be Odobert and more or Yang end up being good enough or you buy another.

Vlahovic only playing CF limits your rotation and flexibility imo

Solanke, Vlahovic - CF
Richi - CF, LF
Son, Odobert - LF
Johnson, Deki - RF

Moore, Scarlett, Lankshear, Veliz, Yang ... let's see who develops and when.

If we could add either Mbeumo or David then the right side is sorted as well, Deki can focus on midfield.
 
David is someone we've been linked with since Paratici came to the club.....similar to how he scouted Johnson a number of times and the club must have taken his recommendation and offered the opportunity to Ange to sign.

Only seen David a few times, there is potential there to work with and to get him cheaply now in Jan or for free in the summer is a no brainer imo for a club like ours where we have to be careful how we spend money :levywhoa:

Richy is a goner mate. We wouldn’t be looking at strikers if we expected him to stay.

I think we are saying similar things tbh. I’m just sticking by my take that you can’t play Solanke and a Vlahovic type together. Whereas a player like RKM or Marmoush can play CF or with a CF. I’d prefer to keep the rotation short without losing depth if possible.
 
I get we have some squad building problems particularly in Europe (not that that will be a problem next year) but buying some jack of all trades, master of none forward seems mad to me. Buy a striker who scores loads of goals to challenge Dom, buy a winger who terrifies fullbacks to kick Johnson to the bench. Sometimes we make the strangest decisions.
