Only a few days ago my opinion was eviscerated by a poster who later made the same opinion elsewhere.

You will be banging your head against the wall with some posters. They simply will not have it

The proper context is in the first three games we've lacked anything that remotely looks like a cutting edge up front.
Many fans have noticed this and noted we are down to one fit striker.
That augers very badly for us given we now have to wait 4 months before we have any chance to rectify that situation.
If it was another club in this situation I don't think our fans would have an issue saying that club is doomed to fail in the PL because of that situation.
It is what it is however, we've made our own bed and now we must lie in it.
If our midfield can't deliver our goals, we are doomed to go straight back down. Let's hope they go gangbusters as they are our best hope.

Spain beat Italy last night without any recognised strikers on the pitch!
I know, our team hasn't got quite the same options as the Spanish national team, but it's interesting to note all the same

As I've said before, Izquierdo needs to convert to a striker and become Roy of the Rovers.
There are so many doubts about so many parts of our team at the moment that we need a miracle. That's not impossible but improbable.
A few days of reflection make me realise that what I felt as the window slammed shut on our fingers was just huge sadness at what might end up being a missed opportunity to establish BHA in the top flight. Of course it's not all over, but staying up will be harder. We got a foothold in 79-83 but couldn't hold on. This time it felt like Tony was doing everything right. Strong team, great manager, spending boldly but not recklessly. Just needed that striker to make it feel like another step forward. And for whatever reasons, we stumbled for the first time since the decision to appoint Sami.
We're all disappointed. Just imagine how Tony feels! But we press on. Still a whole season to enjoy, all to play for. UTA

Incorrect. The player needs to sign too. It's not helpful that the PL website only shows the top half of the form (!), but the full form shows it clearly, as shown in this vid from Sky.

I admit the failure to bring anyone in is hard to take but presumably a fair number of these reports concluded that the guy was not for us. How many of these 2000 were genuine targets?
If I'd commissioned my staff to find 2 strikers and they produced reports on 2000 potential targets but 90% of them weren't up to standard, I'd first be asking:-
1 - Why aren't you concentrating on the specific requirements?
then
B - Ok let's see the 200 strikers who did make it this far.
I wonder how much time and MONEY it cost to scout 2000 players?

Jose doesn't play as a striker.
Neither does Propper, who has just scored two in a likely MOTM performance for Holland.......mojo rising a bit. [emoji106][emoji106]
At least they've scored. Or is a goal too much to ask for?

If you look at 2000 strikers then you'd be looking in noddy leagues at non league standard but they would be cheap

Seemed it was implied in your post, ie where would you rather live with references to Brighton or Burnley already having been made. But if that's not what you meant then fair enough.
