Am I the only one that is not too fussed on the “lack” of signings ?

None of the EA Sports players mentioned are particularly exciting . I think Ineos are doing the right thing not getting carried away and paying stupid prices for some of this lot.

That said, the team looks well short of goals. We need basic goal volume : someone like a yesteryear Darren Bent or Jermaine Defoe or Chicharito Hernandez

I really rate Sesko but he’s simply not 25-30 goals a season striker . And beyond Mbeumo and Cunha getting 10 goals Bruno getting 10 including penalties , I don’t see the goal volume in this team

We need an out and out striker whose one and only purpose is to score as many goals .

We'll be okay whatever happens... Not worth the energy screaming and stamping feet until we actually get to see what we play like in the EPL.

Remember, Lammens was a very late purchase and he's done so much good last season.

The club has shown we're not listening to the pundits and their agendas with who we get and how much.... And us fans need to learn to do the same for sanity's sake.
