Doesn't Danny (F'in) Ings suddenly seem a good option in hindsight...too little too late.

New striker?
- Thread starter King KdB of Belgium
- Start date
I would say haaland but I dont think the problem is the 150-200 we would need to pay dortmund.. I think the problem is either his agent fees or the million pounds a week his agent is trying to get in a salary.
with that said, since Bernardo seemingly wants out I wouldnt mind a swap deal of some sorts with athletico for felix, who might be expendable if they go in for one of their striker targets.

Kane has come out and said he's staying at Spurs this season. I can't see anything changing that the next 96 hours.
Right, I meant for next summer. Also I thought he said "this summer"?
Ah sorry misunderstood your post, my mistakeRight, I meant for next summer. Also I thought he said "this summer"?
I will say, it's a long shot, but i'm super interested to see how Delap does.Would love Mbappe, but that's a no go.
Haaland for sure if we going for a big gun.
He could get a chance at some point and just hit the ground running and start scoring bags of goals.
Would love for us to really need a striker, had teams be like "150m please" and then we just bring a monster through the academy, would be unreal to see.

No hindsight at all.....Ings would have been a very good signing,as many of us said while others were mocking such..Doesn't Danny (F'in) Ings suddenly seem a good option in hindsight...too little too late.
Another idea,and where hindsight is relevant,would have been to keep Nmecha until an outcome/solution was determined.

as a barça fan and someone who watches their games i would reccomend to stay clear. he is hopeless against low blocks. we call him the jogging merchant cause he runs a lot and defends but doesnt acomplish much with the balli always thought a griezmann bernardo swap deal with us paying too would have been good. salaries are the issue. will never happen anyways

Haaland started making noise at 19, if Delap is a freak like him he will have his chances this year. Now is he a freak? i dont watch under 23 games

Dream scenario for me would’ve been if he was fit enough to play today … Pep selects him to start, he bags a couple of goals, and off we go…!I will say, it's a long shot, but i'm super interested to see how Delap does.

It’s either Pep’s way or he’s off, he needs 100% backing in his vision, so on that you have to say he’s done almost all he was supposed to do being brought in as manager.
Apart from overthinking the CL final that is.
The crazy prices for strikers means that we would have to upset our wage structure and team dynamics to accommodate player egos, and the egos of their even more egotistical agents who demand ludicrous fees & salaries, Pep / Board obviously thought this was too much of a gamble.
Pep obviously likes the death from a thousand cuts, rather than the rapier thrust or head lopper style of play, which has served us very, very, well for the most part.
we need a striker, who is going to be that man? will he even come from within our ranks? Can Torres kick on, can Delap step up? Will Sterling regain his fire & accuracy that saw him bag 30 not so long ago? Will we sign someone before the deadline? And is there a Dzêko clone out there waiting to be discovere?

Donald Trump? Oh wait he can't even close an umbrella..Joe Biden? Well almost.
I'd try for Adam Hlozek. From a lower league but is one of the best u19 forwards in the world. Really good finisher already for his age. Would thrive in Pep's system with his combination of movement, creation and finishing.
