I don't think Adams is as terrible as people make out - I say again I think a full season of him would result in more goals in this team than a full season of Maupay.
But the shouts on here that if we wanted him all along then why on earth is he still not here are 100% correct.
We are such a flipping mess. Not sure Adams would have helped (or even started) yesterday. But we might have been sitting on 1 or 3 points if we'd played a striker who could finish in the Fulham game. We don't have 3 points to play with - we're going to be scrabbling round 17th-18th at best this season and we've already massively shot ourselves in the foot by being slow.
And the FFP arguments don't really wash either - because ultimately that's a problem of our own making. Our own poor financial management has resulted in us now not being able to spend when we really need to.
I reached a point last season where I convinced myself that a relegation and reset might be the only thing that fixes us. I'm heading there already this season and it's still August.

If DCL is the regular centre-forward then Che Adams will knuckle down and accept it. What puzzles me
is why EFC spent their little spare cash on a no. 9 from Portugal and especially when the relegation battle
has already started.

Yep
We want them to invest in young talent, but the problem is with the limited funds we are working with, now was not really the time to do it.
If he was ready to come into the squad then by all means.
I got slated on here last week for complaining about signing players who aren’t ready to help the team straight away.

Probably because they expect DCL to breakdown again. Chermitti will be understudy to Adams.
He’s on the list but way down the target
You’ve got try get your number one first! However after that failed we should of just agree the deal with them before season started
Who knows some other club might club & hijack the deal knowing our luck
I read somewhere that thirwell see him as dcl replacement in a few year’s time & by getting him now he be very cheap! Obviously that presuming he develops over that time, which will be unlikely with no game time
Yes, I’d like him to go on loan at Preston with Cannon for this season.I read somewhere that thirwell see him as dcl replacement in a few year’s time & by getting him now he be very cheap! Obviously that presuming he develops over that time, which will be unlikely with no game time

Not against his signing at all, but why have we waited till 2 games in?
We are the most backwards club in the world I swear.

Adams now unfortunately is a priority. DCL confirming he’s had surgery on a broken cheekbone means we won’t see him until after international break at the earliest.

He hasn’t confirmed anything of the sort that I can see? Do you have anything to back that up?

It's cos the Footy Manager heads think we should be buying in thinking of developing and resale value.
Personally think we should be buying players at any age who will fit and play a system effectively that stops us from getting into a relegation fight.
Put some foundations in place.

Probably thought we should "get better" rather than getting what we can.
