It's not ideal but even a deadline day, Levy-special, bargain bin would do now
not a centre back.
So what though? Why are you so precious about complaints about ENIC?
Not the point.
The point is that you think its too late to sign a striker, Im amusing because you think they cant make an impact now the season is under way.
Yet you still want one. I find fans like you tedious to be honest and this club would better off if you fucked off and followed PSG
And when it happens, you will moan because it should have happened earlier.
Load of agenda driven wank
I'm amused by you making up stuff.
When is it going to happen? It's been 12 years now. You'll be still moaning about Poch whatever happens, I don't give a shit, it's your right to do it if you want to.
Ok so lets get this straight.
"A striker should have been signed by now"
Doesnt that mean we have left it too late?
If yes, then too late for what?
If no, then why should we have signed one by now?
Its already happened unless you think recruiting Bale and Reguilon isnt a step up from Moura and Sessengon
Finding physically dominant CB's who are also good footballers is quite tricky, and expensive, but Todibo, who would cost half of Dias I reckon, is physically pretty good, agile enough to press opposing players and is better technically, on the ball and more press resistant than Hojbjerg and Winks. Here's a bit I put together about him with some video clips a few months ago:
He's young, still got some flaws, his defending needs polish, (but I don't think Dias's is that great and the CB's we've got now aren't that great defending either) but well worth a 20m punt as a package IMO. One of the best footballing CB's I've seen around for a while.

Because we've been after a striker since january, we should know who we want, who's available and get on with it.
Good.

Yep.
Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho has reaffirmed his wish to bring in an additional striker before the close of the transfer window.
Despite the arrivals of Gareth Bale and Sergio Reguilon from Real Madrid, as well as Heung-min Son's remarkable display of clinical finishing at Southampton, the Spurs boss still wants to add another striker to his squad, with Danny Ings among his targets .
Spurs have enquired about the England international and continue to monitor his contract situation – but Southampton have insisted he is not for sale at any price.
"For a season like this we need a good squad and we need two players for each position. So there you go.
"Gareth, when fit and in condition, is one of the top players in Europe, and Sergio was amazing last season in Sevilla
"So if you ask me if I'm happy to have these players I have to say yes I am but there are other things that make a team and make a squad. A squad is a puzzle, a squad is a puzzle and in this moment our squad is not a puzzle and that's a problem that we have to understand."

There you have it, so the question is are ENIC going to listen to what he says or not.
There has been one report this week that Mourinho isn't that happy with our transfer business. I can kind of see that being true. He wanted a centre back and another striker as 2 key additions and with a week and a half left of the window we have neither in. Levy is playing a dangerous game here if he fails to get them in, the striker especially saying how vocal Mourinho was in January about getting one.
That's not to say I'm unhappy with our transfer business so far, but I agree we need to sort out a couple more deals. Plus shed a few of the unwanted.
Time is ticking.
Surprised we haven't been linked with Kristoffer Ajer from Celtic. Reminds me a bit of a right footed Daniel Agger who I thought was a really good CB.
We've already won a trophy? When? Netspend trophy/ best stadium/ best training ground in the world trophy doesn't count.
Nooooo!!! Raziak, Saha, Gudjohnson, Frazier Campbell! The Horror of a levy-special bargain bin would send this forum over the edge
