without wanting to be an ITK basher - I used to be a member on SO and Jasper tended to use the scatter gun approach and called very little right. Was a bit of a joke tbh and got a load of stick for it. Reminds me a lot of adiepf

Seems to be a bit of a negative reaction on here about possibly signing Remy.

Which is strange considering most people were wanking(apologies to hottie) themselves silly when we were linked to him in past transfer windows

We have ballsed up if we don't get in another striker, Adebayor could easily get a serious injury. Look how Kaboul is now out for 4 months just a week or so after we put Dawson up for sale.

I agree. I can really see us signing Lloris and Moutinho, everyone thinking we have had the best transfer window in the world and then Ade breaking his leg against Norwich and us being in big trouble with just Defoe. Surely that can't happen?

Ive almost lost track or have any idea of who we are signing.. its becoming a mish mash of madness...

Although Mout is the one I want.. a Striker is more important.. we cannot rely on Defoe to lead the line should Ade take a knock or goes off to the ACN....

He must drive the other players nuts with his whimpering shots he does from 25 yards.. god knows it drives me crazy watching it :censored:

The most important position to e fully resourced should be in the striker department. You have have the greatest ten players on a team but if the striker is a bag of shit then you will struggle (Portugal used to be liek this right)

At least with a shit defence you can outscore the opposition.

Signing Defoe on a new contract is great news. Even if we sign another forward I hope we keep him until January. We need depth and despite his limited game he still scores goals.

I'd like to think we'll sign a wide striker who can play centre forward (Remy or Sturridge are probably the most realistic although would love Mueller) and then sign Leandro in Jan, sell Defoe for a tidy amount in the new year.
A lot say Mueller, what about Schurrle was linged with Chelsea last year, can play Forward /winger

Schürrle is a key player for Leverkusen, besides, german players haven't exactly been flooding into the Premier League lately. Would be very surprised if we manage to get him.

Defoe is always going to get you goals... but only as an impact sub... he poaches goals and sometimes does it really well.. but I wonder how many goals other players would have scored had he decide to pass it rather than just punt it roughly towards the goal???

We now haven't signed someone for 24 hours.

Levy out!
How do you know we haven't signed anyone? JJ has hinted at signings being made before they're announced.

Maybe Levy has signed all our players and is toying with us and announcing them one by one in dribs and drabs. You just know he'll announce one at 10:59pm tomorrow.

I dont honestly think we are going to get Llorente.. it just feels too far out of our reach... Remy I have no clue how good or bad he is... Ive seen mixed feelings on here about him.. what other strikers have we been linked with in the last few days??
