If the extended window comes into play, I really like karlan grant at Huddersfield.
Agreed! We're better off with Bale or Son upfront than King, and already have a wealth of options for the wide forward positions (Son, Bale, Moura, Berwijn, Lamela, Sess, Dele).I really don't think that Josh King is the sort of out and out striker that we need. We need a specialist front man.
I agree that Josh King isn't what we need, but why should we invest less in a starting CB to allow us to spend more on a back-up striker? That weakens our starting XI in order to strengthen our bench.If it means we need to spend more on a striker, then we should allocate funds for that player, rather than a centre back.
Skriniar is a very good player, but I'm sure there are other really good defenders who won't cost as much and could allow us to get our top striker targets.
Is Josh King a good enough striker option for where we want to be?
He'd be a great signing for a mid-table team like Burnley, Southampton etc, but I'm not sure he's what we need.
I'm not saying he isn't a decent player and he could do a job for us, I just think we need to aim higher and we have been with several of our targets .
Someone bump the Deeney thread ??
oThe danger of saying we can sign a championship striker if we don’t get someone else in before the end of the week is there may not be any championship strikers left by that time!
That was me he responded to ?I think ValenciaYid has just indicated that Josh King might be the one we're going for.
Earlier this morning he posted "Wishful thinking" in response to a shortlist of possible striker targets, and just now added "Clearly no Go West fans in here?????" - a reference to Go West's song "King of Wishful Thinking"
That was me he responded to ?
I only signed up there yesterday, and I’m already getting a rough time from some of their posters (Val aside, he’s been a gent) .How many sleazy forums do you hang out in? ?

And also in response to you: He was mentioned to me a few days ago but i got the impression that it was”likely/possible” so i held back as i prefer definite rather than could be’s....its defo not definite especially in this window??That was me he responded to ?
I’m the ‘mole in plain sight’ there! I’m still getting used to how they all operate. Liking it thoI only signed up there yesterday, and I’m already getting a rough time from some of their posters (Val aside, he’s been a gent) .
He’s also mentioning now that he’s had the name for a few days but it’s not a definitive, just a likely/could be which he’s generally not as comfortable sharing.Christ, it's like you're being given a hazing. Thanks for the info gathering ?
It’s different to here. I feel safer here with the rules and regs, I bruise too easily for their workmen’s hands ?I’m the ‘mole in plain sight’ there! I’m still getting used to how they all operate. Liking it tho
