Does anyone know anything about the potential of getting Sessengon, Barkley and Zaha in the next couple windows?
What is a 'proper centre forward'?Richarlson and Zaha for pacey wide forwards, Sessegnon for left wing back, Barkley to eventually replace Dembele. And try to sign a proper centre forward so we have more than 1 option.

Not slating you whatsoever but is this from a reliable source? I’m new to all of this.

What is it about the injury that you think would put us off Barkley? I know we had the discussion in the Summer about leaving it until January because he won't play before then but presumably he is on the mend now.Sessegnon - likely
Barkley - possible, depending on his injury
Zaha - would be a great signing but I think that ship has sailed sadly
If Barkley won’t be able to play this season then there is no way Levy a) pays a transfer fee when he can sign for free in the summer and b) pays his wages for 6 months.What is it about the injury that you think would put us off Barkley?

If he isn't ready to play yet he would still be in and able to aclimatise and probably get some playing time before the end of the season meaning he'll be up to speed and ready come the new season, unless you think he's crocked for good and won't play again.
Honestly think the centre forward thing needs putting to bed. It's not another cf we need, it's a dynamic attacker that can operate in a false nine. Look at Liverpool, they don't play with a cf, they alternate. We need an option like this so that when Kane is out we can operate in this manner. Kane isn't your typical cf either, he's more dynamic and this is why the llorente and Janssen signings are yet to work. They both need balls into the box and that's simply not how we operate. It should be one of our priorities along with a cm and sessegnonRicharlson and Zaha for pacey wide forwards, Sessegnon for left wing back, Barkley to eventually replace Dembele.

@Trix has pretty much said as much I think.
Is Barkley actually training yet anyway? I saw the picture but I don't know how far he is with his rehab.If Barkley won’t be able to play this season then there is no way Levy a) pays a transfer fee when he can sign for free in the summer and b) pays his wages for 6 months.

Possibly? Needs to have the same finishing ability.Another Son?
Again I’m only going on what some of the ITKs have said but it doesn’t seem like he is close to fitness.Isn’t he back for Jan though, has his injury prognosis changed?
Don’t think he is training yet.Is Barkley actually training yet anyway? I saw the picture but I don't know how far he is with his rehab.
But yeah, no point signing him now if he's nowhere close to training. May as well tell him to stay put, get fit and we will negotiate a precontract ready for the summer.
Levy will be thinking the same. Put that 20m towards another player or salaries.
Similar, someone like Brandt or (if fit) Reus would be ideal.Another Son?
Or just use Son and then one of Sissoko, GKN, Lamela or a youth option like Edwards behind him?Possibly? Needs to have the same finishing ability.
