As the press are now reporting villa are outbidding us on Watkins , we are still talking to brentford but I don’t see us paying 30 million for back up

king was the deal was around 12 million for back up

ings was 45 , burnley wanted a lot for woods and the other player I’ve been mentioning is 40 , we have not bought a decent striker since Berbs , soldado and Jansen were disasters
the problem is strikers cost a lot of money and we dont seem to have a willing board , we are being out spent by Newcastle and villa and Everton have spent 75 million this week

levys official line is you know there is Covid and no crowds , I honestly think in Enic 20th season even our most reasonable supporters Patience is going to wear thin

Here is the problem - stop looking for a back up, and start looking for someone to come in and make the starting 11 more competitive.

Honestly think Kane could form a fantastic partnership with someone as he's incredibly good at dropping off and playmaking.

I just fail to believe we'll leave ourselves short again with Jose at the helm, I mean they know it's a huge issue, there's a giant documentary on Amazon that let's us know they're aware of it. I think it's going to be a wait and see but I have to believe we've got something brewing.

How have we gone from possibly 2 strikers to none in less than 12 hours?

There’s still a month of the window left, and deals to be had. Let’s chill and save the tantrums for October

So gone from two strikers in to we don't have the money for a striker?

I couldn't find the bit where he actually said we were going for 2 strikers, just posters saying he said 2 strikers.

In fairness to Levy, our biggest problem is that Newcastle and Villa have somehow been sneaking fans in to their games. We can't compete with that extra revenue.

Money for 2 low priced ones if we sell some players I think, or just 1 low priced one if not selling many. Just not wanting/got money to spend big on a backup striker.

Eerily quiet on our usual ITK front (other than the Goats bleat the other day) Who knows?

A lively window so far, and with lots of exciting (and sometimes not so exciting) itk. A huge thank you to admins and the itks (none mentioned none forgot) - you sharing and caring is a positive in a world gone strange.

For those who are able - a friendly reminder to support the site (and @Rob since it´s going out of his personal pocket): any little contribution helps, I guess.
