We have Solanke, Richarlison, Kolo Muani, Tel, Scarlett while Melia is coming soon for the CF role. Club will need to move some on before we bring one in and in my view DM, LW and LB are more a priority due to the fact we have poor cover in those areas.
Diomande, Wharton and Nathaniel Brown should be looked at if we are going for the really expensive signings IMO.
Sheringham & Klinsmann, Berbatov & Keane, Crouch & Defoe or Kane & Son too.
Is anyone available?
We need a top striker this window. Might get the other forwards more motivated to give more and earn their place. Richarlison was dropped liverpool game, then came on and caused havoc. Then started v palace and had a lease of life. Players need to earn their place. Tbh im disappointed with rkm. Has quality in spells but its hit and miss atm.
RKM is a striker not a left winger. We should really buy a left wing and play either RKM or Richy, they don’t both need to be on the pitch.
Tbh our current stock of attack is average. Needs an upgrade. Id sell richarlison in summer and as it stands not worth keeping rkm unless he improves 2nd half of season.
Ignoring defenders, the only players I would be opposed to selling are Sarr and Simons. Thats how bad this squad is.
The fact they’ve actually finally recognised this gives me some hope. No coincidence that the bald one has left I’m sure!

Too early to sell them imo. Davies, johnson, richarlison, dragusin, vicario can go.
Weird that we seem allergic to spending big money on an actual LW, a position we’ve had issues with since Sonny’s decline.
Haggling over pennies and just leaving players on the books is never a good thing. Might look great in the accounts not to sell for undervalue but fucks the squad.
He is basically saying he wants to sell a few of our players.
He is really aiming to win the dressing room. Not.
Yeah 100%. It was such a vicious cycle with Levy.
1. Buy 2nd rate/cheaper option to avoid paying big fees/wages.
2. Player isn't good enough so 2 years later play hardball and try to get our money back.
3. No-one bites so keep/loan player as their value deteriorates. Manager suffers as we don't improve/refresh squad.
4. Player leaves for a pittance or for free at end of contract.
5. We have less money for transfers so buy 2nd rate cheaper option to avoid paying big fees/wages...
Outside of getting headline deals for star players that any chairman could've got a decent fee for, Levy was abysmal at selling.
I'd like to see what Dragusin can do under a manager who isn't a complete moron and can organize a defense before binning him off. He was very good at Genoa.
The rest can go though.
Me too but will need to wait till Frank is away
We absolutely must get a striker of some quality. A central midfielder is the next priority.
Beyond that I don't care.
Might light a rocket up the arse of a few of them.
Not a big fan of Frank and he's had a few car crashes recently in PCs but I'm fully behind him saying this. Big club mentality IMO.
Odobert played the other night like a young guy, understanding he had to prove his place was worth it. Maybe he'd heard a rumour from his agent?
Couldn’t agree more
Music to my ears.
