Yeah can totally see that. For me the second Piatek was off weren't going to sign anyone else. We've got our priorities wrong this window and we've blown it by playing chicken with another club again.

If Pochettino were coach then i'd agree since we have Bergwijn to cover the wings. But he isn't the coach anymore and Mourinho is. Mourinho has made it abundantly clear in his view of the game that Son and Moura are not strikers and that he needs a number 9. Levy has a duty to support demands that are entirely reasonable and understandable. Do you think JM demanding a striker when you look at who our rivals have available is unreasonable?
We have Harry Kane so in terms of a backup we really only require somebody functional who will offer things that neither Son or Lucas do, decent hold up play and instinct in the box and from crosses. Point is it doesn't have to be somebody who's gonna cost 50m and literally most cast offs from other top clubs would do. The need is also clearly short term so we are not in a position to be holding our powder dry for the summer.
There is no excuse not to get a Premier League standard striker in, even if it's just a 6 month loan until we reassess the situation in the summer.

January is a difficult month for signings. Unless we're going to pay an outrageous fee for a player who is likely to be substandard, then there are probably no real options. And by that I mean players that Mourinho himself probably doesn't think are good enough. So it can't be pinned on the board alone.

We should go for Mariano at Madrid, apparently available for loan.

Gutted. No options for strikers now it seems. Yet we badly needed one.
Yep, Kaveh said an agent has phoned him up and said we're still in talks. Also mentioned he's been offered to United (both loans).

Just to say Kaveh said they (Sociedad) wanted cash but Spurs want a loan and then in the same breath that United would/could be offered him on loan - there is a problem there chief ...

It doesn't add up, does it? They want cash in a transfer yet both teams are sniffing a loan 'supposedly' eh, transfer deadline day, all sorts of shit is made up.
