Does anyone out there actually rate our strikers who (whisper it quietly) got us into the Champions League last year?

Now i'm not saying we should rest on our laurels and not sign a striker, but realistically is there a striker out there who's AVAILABLE and AFFORDABLE who would improve dramatically on what we have got already. Baring in mind that if this elusive striker does indeed exist then you have to expect the selling to club to have to line up a replacement so it justs jams up the transfer conveyor belt even more so.

January is notorious for hard bargaining and over-pricing so i'm not surprised that our business is going into the last few days considering the calibre of player we are supposedly looking at.

Tottenham have been dealt another blow with the news that Diego Forlan does not want to move to White Hart Lane this month - although the striker's Atletico Madrid future is uncertain beyond the end of this season.
Harry Redknapp is desperate for a striker to boost his side's hopes of progression in the Champions League as well as maintaining their bid to finish fourth this season.
But he has been frustrated in his attempts, with the Spurs manager unable to sell Robbie Keane to release some funds for a transfer.
There was hope of a move for former Manchester United striker Forlan, 30, but the Uruguay international held talks at Atletico Madrid last night and it was agreed he will remain at the club this season.
However, further talks between Forlan and Madrid representatives are planned in June with the player said to be keen on another crack at the Premier League.

Wasn't Adie so convinced that Suarez would come that he proclaimed he would eat his own balls or something if he didn't sign? what has happened since then? or could his mate have been fed misinformation?

Adie never actualy said Suarez would come to us, he always said he won't be going to Bindippers.

Cross him off the list then - permanently. When you are offered tyhe chance to play for the mighty Spurs you do not pick and choose when you might fancy it. Enjoy the Europa league Mr Forlan.

We got 4th INSPITE of our forwards, not because of them.

Defoe was terrible all winter and spring, Keane was in Scotland, Crouch was Crouch (though got the goal at City admitedly) and Pav was the best of a bad bunch.

Our defence is top 5.
Our midfield is top 1.
Our strikeforce would possibly scrape midtable.

Players have too much power these days, I miss the days where players were simply told "your going, now fuck off" but now a player can ruin a clubs entire transfer business, POTL definitely hinted that either Pav or Keane had fucked things up

We won't get top 4 unless we have a centre forward who is effective in the current formation.

Chelsea managed 1 win in 10, and we are still behind them. Now they have their three Talismen back.

This will be a second season running where we score 20-40 goals less than the top teams. Half to 1 goal a game is a massive gulf.
