Seriously Benteke is not that good ..
if we need a cf striker we need 3 things
Speed
Power
Height
Giroud lacks because of pace
What we really need is
Kasper Dolberg

Not sure of any ideas, but I wouldn't mind bringing in a winger on loan. Hopefully, Walsh gets creative and we aren't left light in the attack.
We don't play with wingers though mate. Not in any formation Koeman uses.

That's fair. Just thinking of something in the Bolasie/Lookman mold for an injection of pace. Don't think we get that from a target man or Gylfi.
Get where you're coming from. Think a big presence up front is more pressing but with this lack of pace thing we have Ramirez/Lookman/Mirallas and if we are lucky Bolasie on return. I suppose the question is how many of them are likely to make a consistent run of nailing a first team place.

I think if Bolasie can come back healthy and determined, he will be a huge contributor. Liked what he showed last season.
Shame he will miss the Europa League group stages as he's ideal for them too. Will be good to have him and Coleman back this season.
My take on it? Siggy will be completed within the next 24 hours, an additional striker by the time we play Stoke and that leaves us another 2-3 weeks to sort out whatever other areas RK feels we are lacking in. Just feel that Ronkoe will now press home that need to get things resolved quick and the coming week will see most of that happening once he puts the Siggurdson deal to bed. I don't personally believe he intends sitting on his hands waiting for Giroud to come even if that is - as reported - his number one striking choice. The guy himself (Giroud) doesn't appear to be sending out any kind of signals to suggest Everton are in his sights. Have a strong feeling we may now be looking towards Italy for the striker option.
No one is telling you mate!!
Facts are Benteke, you wont buy him for 40 million as Palace paid around 35 for him
Stop flapping there is still time to get players in, we have achieved great business so far, and there is three more to come!
Keep the thread urine free please!

I like Dolberg but... he would be a horrible main striker.
Its pretty clear that Koeman is saying the exact same thing he was last week, we are going to bring in Siggy or a Siggy like player, and a striker. Judging by how well the board did his initial bidding early in the window, I see no reason we wont get what we want.
I think our ideal formation is with a target man up top, Sandro on one wing, Siggy tucked in on the other(so with only one traditional winger), with Rooney and Klaassen as attacking CMs, and one defensive mid of mostly Schneiderlin, maybe Gana. When we arent playing a top 6 team, that should be the way we line up.

Going to be painfully narrow by the looks of it. Once again every player looking to cut inside or just stay inside.
Sandro isn't a traditional winger either...

Roma don't do too bad either with Dzeko up top.
