Addenda: it will be a bloody miracle of we buy a striker!
That is just the way it has has always been!
We got lucky with Willie Irvine (better than Darren Bent) and Peter Ward (better than Sterling). We shouldn't have sold Buckley though !!!
There is not a striker out there. Unless anybody...
It is going to be so ****ing difficult that even four players, not six needed, is going to be virtually impossible!
Choosing older journeyman is not any good. Terrible!
Danny Ward has gone as well: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Ward_%28footballer%29
Looks like we really need some proactive signings. It is going to be a very difficult job. Sellers market ?
Cross the first off the list: http://translate.google.co.uk/translate?hl=en&sl=nl&u=http://www.fcupdate.nl/voetballers/67876/jop-van-der-linden/&prev=search
Regular non-playing substitute. Unfortunately, I think the wages will be prohibitive. He does not seem to fit in at Sunderland (taken off against Stoke) who can look really awful a lot of the time.
I think we have to look at non-squad younger players from Premier League sides. Even the top 6...
I would like to get Will Buckley back now Sunderland have a change in Manager.
I don't think hamstrings are serious injuries, although I think he had a knee injury as well this season?
In would have a look at:
Jop van der Linden (Go Ahead Eagles) central defender
Danny Ward (Rotherham) left winger
Jérémy Hélan (Sheffield Wednesday) left midfield
