Keep thinking it’s either Slimani or no one at all.
Better not signing anyone than some waste of money dud just for the sake of a signing.
Considering Jose spent the last 4 weeks begging for one, be interesting to see the reaction on here if you're right.
Definitely agree with that - the last thing we need is a panic buy. It's just irritating that we've had weeks and with 1 day left to go there seems to be no sign of one arriving.
Yes, we have plenty of attacking midfield options. But what team that seriously wants to challenge for things would risk going without a recognised striker through a transfer window? Spurs, obviously.
Hate to be the one to put this out there but Bergwijn has started 6 games this season as a centre forward for PSV this season so maybe the need is eased slightly due to him coming in (I'm ready for pelters, inkmow they are deserved but......)
Not sure that was deserving of the exclamation marks or wide eye emojis.
...in which he scored a total of zero goals
Hope so. I don't want that great French lump in a Spurs shirt!
Who isn't?And Sandra Redknapp is better than Darren Bent.
Yes we have goal scoring issues, so a striker would be nice, but there's fuck all point signing a shit one on loan for 5 months. It's disappointing that we haven't gone in for a DM though, as that's by far our biggest issue. We can't exert control over matches because our midfield gets towelled up. Ndombele and lo Celso can't play at their best without someone more defensive behind them, which is hurting our offensive capabilities. Play Parrott there ever second game, and paly son through the middle with either of Bergwijn or Sessegnon coming in on the left.
Honestly, I really hope that Jose is considering playing Skipp as that position is a massive hole for us right now. He's given a chance to tanganga in an even more crucial position against Liverpool ffs. Fill in the holes with youth, at least it is at no cost to the club.
Skipp (DM)
Parrott (ST)
Tanganga (CB)
Cirken (LB)
why not give them a go, can't be any worse than rubbish players from elsewhere, who don't identify with the club in any way

Don’t look like we are. And even if we did, Too late for City....
You're so right!
I think that is us done now although missing out on a striker will cost us but we haven't addressed that problem for the past 4/5 windows so why bother now.
Sounds like he might be going to Man U
Am i the only one that's optimistic about tomorrow then?
I expected us to sign nobody this window and i know under Poch we would have done just that (and Poch would have proceeded to send mixed messages to the media about him being happy...sad...happy...angry...happy about it). We have brought in 2 exciting players and i'm sure a large part of that is thanks to Mourinho insisting we need players and not being a yes man.
Hopefully he does that again tomorrow.

Piatek is a top striker and clearly has balls moving to relegation threatened Hertha Berlin.... good for Hertha getting him on a permanent deal.. they can finally bid farewell to Kalou and Ibisevic, who have been around for as long as I can remember.
