Send them Connolly

Sorry. A bit below the level they require!!

Most Championship teams would be very happy to have him and he has performed well against Championship opposition.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Yes, and neither are strikers…

Who are your current realistic recommendations going into December?

Well it is going to be tough. It always is in Jan. But I am sure our recruitment army have some exciting striker targets

It’s not about strikers though, it’s about goals. Salah has played 77% of his career at right wing but has scored most of his goals there.

It’s very possible that over the next year or two, a player like Mitoma, Khadra or Sarmiento could become quite prolific for us. If they do, we don’t necessarily need a new striker.

Maybe they will be prolific, maybe not, and a goal is a goal, but… IMHO we need a striker. It is the most obvious squad gap we have, especially now Cucu is on board.

FFS stop asking such difficult questions. Play nicely!

Welcome back

They are probably awaiting the dawn of new ice-age before acting

Lol

Origi, if I am not mistaken is out of contract in the summer.

Based on our current start could little old Brighton entice him?

Probably sub 10 million to take him in January and wouldn’t need to break our wage structure. Alternative haunts of Palace, Villa etc would seem to have dried up. Only Alternative could be a back up to Antonio.

Thought he looked sharp recently when he’s played.

Thoughts?

Whenever mentioned he's always been a bit of marmite suggestion on here. For me, if the wages/price was right i'd have him.

IMHO just the sort of player we are missing

I thought he took his goal really well in the recent defeat to West Ham, especially when you consider how little competitive football he's played recently. Knows where the net is for sure.

What, a one goal iin five games striker - say eight goals a season? I thought we had one or two of those already.

Over the last year Andone, Murray, Tau, Locadia, Sarmiento have all been seen as the great saviour by some people at one point or another. Only fair it is now Simas turn.

1 goal in 5 games from largely appearances off the bench. Played regularly and those 8 goals could become nearer to 15. At the right price/wage thats something not to be ignored.

Murray was/is our second-highest scorer of all time

Your point is?

The point is, I think, that he's replying to a post about Origi with an answer about Sima!

One in five everywhere he's played - and he was mostly starting when not at Liverpool.

What about Super Andi Zeqiri? Bought on in each of Switzerland's qualifiers this week to thwart the Euro'20 Champions

 

[chaileyjem]

With Mitoma the spending has exceeded £50m, so why do people still think we can afford to go out looking for a £20m plus striker?

I don't know what our plans are in January but i guess i'm confident the club is looking to spend £20m+ on a striker because it actually bid £20m+ on a striker only a few months ago.

Ah! Knew I forgot someone.

That he was one of many strikers labelled as the saviour last year based on very questionable evidence. Yes, he is the second-highest scorer of all time but those wanting to recall him in January last year ignored that he was very much done on Champonship level never mind the Premier League.

But when he was not at Liverpool and therefor starting games was as a teenager for Lille (hardly fair to criticise), or 1 loaned season to a new club/league. I dont think that's a big enough sample to say he'll only ever be a 1 in 5 striker. Origi wouldnt necessarily bring bucket loads of goals to us but I could certainly see him scoring 10+ and bringing a lot of attributes we lack in our forward line. Like i said, for the right price/wages I see value in singing him. Someone else who's well in contract, and also scores 15-20 goals each season will set us back £40m... Just being realistic on what we might be able to attract.
