Like Pritchard? Who incidentally has only played 1 of Norwich's games since signing as he's been injured. Also, Dobbie... Wow... What a spectacular failure that was.

No striker then?

If we're going for mid-table (which we're not) then Tony should sell Dunk, AK & Stephens, pocket the cash and start next season with a:-

Wise words. If we are only going for midtable then Tony could sell a couple and not lose 18 million this year.
Or, as stated, we can go for top 2.

Ash Barnes I reckon it'll be.
That only means 1 thing though...

More daft post match interviews in cup matches saying he's pleased we got the three points?

Bamford just signed for them so his game time has just gone down so you never know

I'd be pleased! I'm a Barnes fan.
Would also simultaneously make 50% of NSC rage like never before.

Is Barnes injured.....if not he certainly seems to have fallen out of favour

I'm not sure to be honest, I've not see him on the pitch whilst watching MotD.
He had a severe injury last season though right?

Don't take too much store in what is said in interviews, listening to CH's post match interviews he always trots out the same old mantra of ' they're a good team, well set up, they made it difficult for us'. As if we expected anything else, so the best thing to do is draw your own conclusion and I would suggest that any signing on the last day of the window will not be at best value and will not be anyone significant, because as the clock ticks and agents and clubs monitor our position, the pendulum swings against us and it becomes a sellers market, we've been here before and we all know the likely outcome. Our current strikers are not sufficient quantity or quality to take us into the premand I would suggest that CH knows this.

Would prefer to sign Bashley Barnes rather than Lee Gregory.

But unless you're going to cough up a few million yourself, it's unlikely to happen. I think if you were a club manager you be more in the mold of a Mourinho than a Houghton.
With one more quality striker and Solly to come back, we are better placed to deliver this season than we did last. And let's face it last years finale...how could we be so bloody unlucky again.
Unless you are about 12, you need contact 'The Guiness Book of Records' claiming the World's shortest memory. Can you not remember the Nightmare Years of having no ground, hanging on to Football League status by the skin of our teeth. Travelling to Gillingham for our HOME games etc.

"The squad we have now" includes Dale Stephens, so my interpretation would be CH is basing that on him staying.

Exactly..Now would surely mean now....Also with our Clubs policy of keeping schtum about every damn thing, I'm surprised to hear CH suddenly revealing all this info...unless of course ?
Corrected for you x

It would be VERY interesting to read NSC in the subsequent 24 hours. Toys all over the place
I'm in team Barnes btw

Yes another for team Barnes, will be fun on here if it ever happened.
The club's ambition is to hold on to our top players and add even better. We are certainly going to try to sign another striker and this is not the era of Burke and his loan cast offs.
However the club cannot be 100% in charge of its own destiny (see Pritchard). We ARE going for it but so are many others. Derby have about 6 strikers now. Unless they intend to play like Sevilla currently are then 4 of them will have to warm a bench.

This tells me we cannot compete for the 10+ million pound names that are circulated every season - Rhodes, McCormack etc.
But it does not say that we cannot retain ALL our players AND sign some excellent new ones who will play well within our existing squad - and get us into the top 2.
