Hey, I know Nemanja Nikolic!

He's a proper goal poacher and a true #9 center forward, but he's not much of an all-around footballer, his hold-up play leaves much to be desired, he's not a great header of the ball, he's totally dependent on the service he gets, and he's 32 years old and looked in decline athletically last season and the Fire have replaced him with a younger guy from Ligue 1. If that's the BEST available free agent...yikes.

Good guy though. He's been the heart and soul of the (very bad) Fire side the last few years.
Sounds promising.
 
Weghorst would be a really solid signing and good back up. Strange that we, or indeed any team of note, have ever been linked with him in any meaningful way.
He only really burst on the scene last season when he moved from Holland to Germany. But he does look the stuff with 11 goals in all comps so far this season. He rounded out his first season in Germany with 18 in all.

Another name we should look at out of Germany in the summer if Kevin Volland at Leverkusen. Consistent Bundesliga striker. We could probably do with scouting more attackers out of Germany since I think the style of the league is the most similar to the Prem.
 
So far we've done a good job of writting off every player we've bought. Lets see who's the preferred striker to fill in for Kane. I'm assuming there's still a little money left to do a deal (permanent or loan), and that Piatek is out of the equation.
 
I'd have preferred Piatek, but given the circumstances tonight I saw we bite the bullet on Willian Jose if the price isn't too expensive. If it is and if Chelseamare genuinely willing then let's be honest we have a better chance of having a decent last spell of the campaign with him than without him.

Bill Madrid Bill Madrid how much did you say he'd cost us?
