Do people not read anything anyone else's posts?, he hasn't said he only wants to, he said he wants a couple which as someone above pointed out could mean more than 2

This would be depressing for me, if we only get Lennon and Evans in. If this is the case, I think Martinez will not survive this season!

Deulofeu? Cleverley?

Got to feel for Martinez to be honest, i do believe that Shaqiri, Ogbonna and Payet were all genuine targets and those in charge failed to get them in for him.

Given Martinez's downgrading of players needed, and us signing Holgate as a cheap back up option I am more confident that Stones is staying. I think big signings, such as Austin would have been dependant on Stones going, as would signing 3+ players.
If Stones goes on deadline day, expect a similar scramble to 2 years ago. I anticipate Austin to be waiting in the car ready to go through. We'd also probably sign Lennon for a nominal fee and loan Evans. We can only hope a number 10 would be included in the dealings, but might be pushing it a bit.

The fans were getting impatient within 20mins on Saturday. If Martinez doesn't sort his tactics out or get players in that can make it work then there will be huge pressure on him from the stands. Especially with the fixtures we've got.
I think there is also an element of our stock falling after last year.

I'm only convinced we were in for Ogbonna, and the reason we never got him was London and first team football for him. We wanted Shaqiri but not enough to want him permanent and I'm unsure about Payet, there was literally one daily mail article about him.
I still think Martinez's first choice playmaker hasn't been revealed to the press. It's unknown and anyone could guess.

He said we need two or three from the get go. Media clung on to 3.
He then said the other night "we need a couple", so everyone is going bat-crazy that he must obviously mean we don't need a striker.
Another example of melt-down in here without cause.

Totally agree with this. And I think negotiations are probably on-going but the lads current club don't really want to sell or don't want to sell until they have a replacement

my concern right now is martinez not being able to sign the right sort of players over the next couple of weeks, we have a terrible start to the season, epseically over 10 games and we then either sack the manager or worse still stand by him whilst he nose dives into relegation scraps again.
But more specifically, right now its not about signing any player, its about signing a player or two that makes the club be able to go 'trust us, we know what we are doing'. Lennon and evans is not that.
