How do you know we haven't a hope of Llorente? And are you saying that we shouldn't even try, although it seems he could be available? You were very keen on Huntelaar, as I recall.
Still am, he's a supreme goal scorer. How many chances would he have gobbled up the last 2 seasons for us....

We going a bit off topic here so let's leave it at that...

The Demba bros are both overrated anyway, I still wonder how we weren't even in for Jelavic given the price he went at. Would have been a perfect stopgap/backup instead of bloody Saha.

Yup GarethBale on COYS claims that his city-working friend texted him "Leandro Damiao - you heard it here first". Seems legitimate.
maybe being slow here and cant be bothered to look thro but is that a joke?

To think we could have had 2 class forwards, Jelavic & P.Cisse, for under £15m last January.... Cheers Harry!!!

You're so much better than this sunny. Honestly, if this transfer window has told us one thing it's that only one person wears the transfer trousers at our club and that is our dear leader. It doesn't appear to matter what players the manager wants.

Bear I'm just getting more and more frustrated with our striking position as the days go by. 5 summers ago we had a forward line of Berba, Defoe, Keane & Bent to choose from. We now have Defoe & Kane....

Mate I'm right there with you, just no point blaming he who is no longer here when it is clear the problem lies a lot higher up than that.

This is true, and it seems that we have developed a real blind spot when it comes to strikers.

I mean, does anyone actually believe that someone like Jelevic is not good enough or too expensive for us when he was available in January?

I would have thought that he would have been perfect for us, but clearly someone in the club deemed him to be not.
