New striker?

[PragueBlue]

I hope you’re right. But despite today, I expect he’ll manage about 15 or so in the league.

Imagine this team with a proper number 9.

I think Torres is good enough to play that role as he gets more used to it. Not sure there are many options around that would get us more.

Why waste money on a striker when from todays showing and for Spain Torres is more than capable. With Delap to blood also the future is bright

I agree. A world class striker, that woukd be a different story. A last minute make-do with what is left in the market, rather see Torres and Gabi get a proper go to play consistently.

Foden would be dangerous as a false 9

Regardless of today's sensational display We NEED a striker. Proper freakin one.

Pep just said he doesn't think we will get one in his post match interview

That’s just undeniable

Hoping if Bernardo does leave it will involve some sort of swap. One can dream!

Hopefully he's just playing it cool

In Torres we have one. Gives Delap a chance as well. At some stage we need to trust some of the talent coming through the academy and give them a chance to make it with us.
