David Ginola...
That man in this team, he’d still be our best player.
He averaged a goal or assist every 390 minutes in his career, just looked it up. He wouldn't get a squad number imo. ?

Nibble
Perhaps, but I think he’d be far more effective in a side like ours right now and in this time period than he was in an era were football was more direct, and wingers were far more about being providers than goalscorers to two centre forwards (yet he was providing for Armstrong and Iversen) while getting none of the protection afforded to flair players in this day and age. The amount of perfect passes and crosses he put on a player for us back then to only see our shoddy front line waste them was ridiculous, there’s a reason why the two best managers of the time, Ferguson and Cruyff, both wanted to buy him.I just want my wingers to have a better g/a ratio than goalkeeper Rogerio Ceni. Ginola was easy on the eyes and graceful, for sure though - just had similar output to somebody like Sean Davis

This point rather demonstrates the exact opposite of what you are saying. It shows that no matter how much money a club has it remains impossible to cater for every possible situation in football. When a club sees their two prime players for one position get injured they are always going to struggle. This goes for all teams in all leagues and proves that you can't just spend your way out of these situations.For those that turn their nose up at strikers they dont rate recent results of Man City with no strikers
You've already said that our 3rd striker needs to be "stellar" so that means we must turn our nose up at most of the available striker pool surely. And I don't think that buying poor players is a good recruitment policy at all. It certainly won't work in the long run, and isn't that what we actually want to achieve; long term success?it tells me we should not be turning our nose up at certain strikers
We played shit plenty of times with Dembele too. I agree he is a unique and special player but we still never won anything!
