This is the way to go I believe, look for ultra talented youngsters from abroad especially in markets that represent decent value like South America / Asia etc and buy a few . If even a small number come good , the club either sells them off for a profit or they are good enough to stay like Moder etc

To buy a young top striker that is a significant upgrade on what we have from the PL or the french / Italian league would cost 3 x the amount and still no absolute guarantee they would settle in to our team .

Sensible planning - i dont think Connolly is ready yet for another season in the PL - he needs loaning out to improve his decision making .

I love the "purchase for future seasons" conveyor belt, and hope we get a couple more for it this summer.

Looks like a defenders nightmare, receives the ball and drives towards goal, taking on his marker.
Reminds me of Luis Suarez.

Plus at least he will take players on and looks strong with a few tricks . This I feel is currently the big issue with Tau , he’s quick but not strong enough to hold the ball up - crucial in the PL .

Boom there you go... as a few of us predicted. No magic bullet 40 million striker. More smart and affordable recruitment from South America.

There will be no £40 million pound signings, for any clubs, this coming window. There may be some player swaps and a bit of bartering. The Gravy Train is slowing down.
