Need tomorrow’s men As ever with SB it’s going to be a mixture of experience, youth and joined up thinking. Diame clearly fits the bill for us!

But what I’ve seen of him for Newcastle he doesn’t effect games enough, looked ridiculously lazy at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurujuan Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 I’m afraid Austin would be another risky signing, a player, like Rhodes, whose best days are behind him. It’s starting to look as if the same recruitment team is still in charge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelcityowlsfan Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 After almost begging we sign Rhodes I think my judgement on strikers is shot. I like the Odubajo signing if true though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion though, what we need is, somebody with a bit more pace and guile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trouble is they are very well sought after those type of strikers. We either have to try and loan someone from the English leagues or overseas. Brewster from Liverpool could be one to look at.

TodwickOwl Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 I just wish we'd have some clarity from the club on what pot we're going to be p*ssin in Are the accounts late because we've had an injection for ground naming rights? Or are they late because we're in the poo? Are we working off frees and loans or do we have any cash to spend from freeing up players? Whats going onnnnn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that’s exactly the type of striker we should be looking for Perhaps Greenwood from Manchester United, though he himself has been involved with the first team recently. Basically, we need the type of player who can stretch defences, and who is capable of running in behind Don’t want see another season of knocking it up to Fletcher, for others to feed on scraps It’s too basic, especially when it’s our only attacking option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
