I know there's still time to get in some quality player's but think we're all frustated when other teams are identifying their targets and signing them while we are being linked with so many targets but can't seem to sign a single player. Like I already posted I'm eternally grateful to Gold/Sullivan for what they've done for us, I'm starting to wonder if the seven year plan of getting into the champions league is reality or just a bold statement when they first took over because we are going to have a long hard season if we don't get some attacking options fit to wear our shirt. There's still time so let's just hope there's good news for us soon. Chris COYI



Absolutely CHRIS. I agree 100% and like you I've found that G&S blow a lot of hot air. We've had all summer to get targets of which there have been plenty. I'm not one to criticise normally because we've reduced our debt by £30m and are back in premier league, however, we NEED a striker who has the ability to score us plenty of goals when AC can't. I fear otherwise it could be a long hard struggle to saty in the premier league with so many strong teams



Not being funny but its about time we had our luck with a youngster and I think we will get that with Morrison, Maybe someone has told him have a really good season and be a suprise pick to travel to Brazil, because he has got the skills!



But are we linked to so many players or is this just speculation when players names are mentioned especially every striker at the moment that is on the verge of moving. Can't help but noticing that we are not linked with any goalkeepers maybe because we don't need one. Get my drift. I watched us beat Sporting Lisbon last night and I can say that I was extremely impressed with Ravel Morrison that I actually wondered why he can't fill that vacant role.



Morrison had a great game and has played well all pre season but he don;t fit into the Sam Allardyce mould. Our midfield is going to be Diarra, Noble, Diame and Joe Cole any money on it, with Nolan playing in the slot behind the striker.



Because Sam likes to whack the ball to his big centre forward. What happens if he plays Maiga who starts the saeson with a bang and scores us a few goals. Does he then drop him as soon as Andy Carroll is fit again. Wager he does



That won't be our Midfield he will Play Jussi, demel, reid, collins, diame, noble, nolan, J. cole, Maiga, Jarvis,



Big year for Joe Cole and Ravel Morrison. As everyone knows AC going to be out for the start of the season and no doubt for another couple of months during the season. At the moment all we have is Maiga? Desperately need a couple of attacking players. Someone like Demba Ba and a pacey winger that will chip in with some goals. Could also do with Jarvis chipping in with a few goals this season, something he hasn't managed to do yet.! Got a feeling it's going to be a tough season for us! The club better pull a couple of rabbits out of the hat, if they think we can get by on what we've got we're going to be floating around relegation.
