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.
Tough tough season ahead, Matches against the likes of dippers, PSG, and Chelsea screams for an elite finisher who can score from half a chance (think of Kun).
I am all in for Delap and confident he will come good but he should pave his way a long a senior striker . Torres in my eyes has great potential but not as a no 9.

Let's see how we go until the New Year as I doubt we'll be bringing in a new striker. We might find by then that we're happy with what we have.

Actually shocking to me that the connections in Abu Dhabi really want to face PSG twice without a proper 9. You’d think there would be some pride thereTough tough season ahead, Matches against the likes of dippers, PSG, and Chelsea screams for an elite finisher who can score from half a chance (think of Kun).

The tough UCL matches only come after the New though. If we qualifyLet's see how we go until the New Year as I doubt we'll be bringing in a new striker. We might find by then that we're happy with what we have.

I'd put a cheeky bid in for Benzema, better than Kane and would be good for 2 more seasons, allowing more time for us to developed or find the perfect Kun replacement.

A striker tends to move into positions which a midfielder won't. That's why it's important to get the right striker.Even today there we struggled to get the ball to someone in the box so that they could have a shot. I think getting a striker wouldn't help as much as people think.

Signed a new contract last weekI'd put a cheeky bid in for Benzema, better than Kane and would be good for 2 more seasons, allowing more time for us to developed or find the perfect Kun replacement.

While that's true, I'd rather stick with what we have until/unless there is a markedly better option available. I don't believe that there is at the present time.The tough UCL matches only come after the New though. If we qualify
We had Mahrez and Sterling on the bench today with KDB and Foden still out injured. We have plenty of attacking options and firepower without bringing somebody new in for the sake of it.

That PSG team last year couldn’t win their shit league. It’s a different beast entirely now. And Aguero was subbed in at some point in case people forgotYeah, never worked before has it....
I agree. It's Haaland or bust for me and we know it's not happening this window.While that's true, I'd rather stick with what we have until/unless there is a markedly better option available. I don't believe that there is at the present time.

They are all players that can play a false 9 position and can create and score goals. We don't need a specialist 9 until one that is worthwhile is available.Those aren’t 9’s

They are available. There won’t be any new out of contract or with release clause world class options next summer that aren’t available already except Haaland and that will be toughThey are all players that can play a false 9 position and can create and score goals.
