They may target a striker, but how good will he be ? You keep missing the point. Its not about buying such and such a player because they play in such a position, its about how good they are. The club is in decline, because the owner is selling our best players and not backing his manager in the way a manager of NUFC ought to be, one of the biggest clubs in the UK and who had the 14th biggest turnover in football when he bought it.

They had 7 month, YES 7 WHOLE MONTHS! To scout and recognise a striker to sign, if they really wanted a striker they could have got one in the summer, did they no. Trying is not good enough, the money is there to get one, we're not asking to go and splash £15 to £20 million on a striker but 7 months of scouting should have gotten us a striker.

JawD 31 Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 LM - Just because Im bored and feel like a debate. I'll chuck this in. How can the club be in decline? 08/09 we were relegated (the low point). Then we came up, then we finished 12th, now we are 6th and likely to finish 7-9th. Is that a decline?

I didn't say they were, I was simply using those as an example of what was around and the costs involved. I would rather the club did its homework and got the right players with the right mentality to fit in with the squad. I fully admit I was dissapointed we didn't get another sooner but BA's ripping it up so someone to compliment him, get Ben Arfa firing, Best is doing well and even Shola has broken sweat a few times. I think our main priority should be a CB then tie up Collo and concentrate on a Striker when that's done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
