Absolutely shocking planning from us, everyone and their dog has known rom was off this summer for several months now.

Walsh is absolutely useless with the plan B isn't he, it's okay when we get our first choice but when we don't mass panic ensues

If moshiri has any serious ambitions for the club he'll sack Walsh on Friday if we fail to get a striker in

It's not all doom and gloom

So Costa is ours and usmanov will be with us shortly

A bit surprised he would say zero chance of Barkley joking Chelsea. We will definitely sell rather than have him run out his contract in my opinion

Can we recall Onyekuru?

Do we have the squad to compete with everyone in the league, like Koeman said we would?

Two let down summers on the run, failed to bring in what was required in both summers.

Don't even feel like I'm jumping the gun saying it either, with 48 hours still to go. I'm guessing we will panic buy someone and then go with what we've got.

Nothing but the best is good enoughlol

Batshuayi could be a difficult one. If Chelsea get llorente and Costa goes. Would only leave them two strikers. Would have thought theyde want 3 in the squad. The question should be asked if they're in contact over Barkley. Reckon the player himself will need to ask for the move and then I reckon it'll be a season loan. Looking pretty grim all round how we've left ourselves in this absolute mess God only knows.

Vault me but we're not even going to win the 7th placed trophy unless we get a proper centre forward in.

Tend to agree. Being in Europe is bound to have an effect too. DCL, Rooney, Sandro isn't enough. Tense.

I believe both Sandro and DCL will turn into premier quality strikers as the season progresses, but neither are good enough yet to help us break into the group of teams above us. And that's what we have to do to progress . So I agree that not bringing in a top quality striker is both disastrous and unforgivable given that we probably knew as early as March/April that Lukaku was going. But that is countered by good signings that we have made in other area's, so overall it's half decent. But at the moment, it feels like a loss rather than the draw which it probably is.
