So do a lot of the other teams aiming to finish top 6/top 2. That's why the league is so tight IMO. January will be very interesting - for a lot of clubs, us included.

DuttyTeabags Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 Really hope we can get FF back to his best, defo would love to see him, and Harris and Fletch as a front 3 vs Leeds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_1 Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 I'd rather we let Rhodes and Winall go on the cheap and we take punts on players, like we have with Borner. Kacper Przybyłko - banging them in the MLS. Young, tall, strong. Anyone got Monk's number? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billyblack Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 Left winger and striker needed IMO. Murphy needs sending back to Newcastle. Hopefully we can get two other loans in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

room0035 Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 We have the forwards at the club I personally don't think we need anymore we have fessi, fletcher, Winnall, Rhodes, Nuihu the mix of the 5 should get enough goals up front. The big problem area is the reason we have not got promoted or top 6 for the last few years not enough goals from midfield. Reach had a reasonable season last year playing further forward but this seasons return so far has been poor, Harris has 2 goals and 2 assists so far which is ok but could be better, Bannan, Hutch, Lee, Pelupessy, Murphy just 2 goals between them in over 50 appearances is not good enough for players of their quality. Look at the teams that have gone up in the last few season Villa Hurrahane, Fulham Cairney, Norwich Vrancic, Wolves Cavalerio etc We lack goals from midfield hopefully Luongo playing more regularly will mean more goals from midfield.

room0035 Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 If we were looking for a striker I would be looking at Ivan Toney at Peterboro former Newcastle player who like a lot of kids at Premier league clubs spent a lot of time on loan but has scored goals where ever he has been. He got 23 goals in 55 appearance last season and has scored 11 goals and 2 assists in 16 games this season, he looks like he could develop into a great player in the next few years and if we could get him at a good price he could score the goals to get us into the top 6.

Mr Hooper Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 I love some of the comments in this thread. 'Our attacking players are currently on course to get X number of goals - which is a good return' 'Yes but they won't keep up their current goal scoring form and stats' What's the lottery numbers for this weekend?

tarn owl Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 the issue is not the striker. It is the fact we get little goals from midfield with Bannan and Hutch. But i think Monk has already seen this and the midfield has been linking up with Fletch a lot better with Luongo behind him. Luongo was missed in the 2nd half on Tuesday. Give them more time playing this system and i think we will see more goals from everyone. Also, Villa and united didn't need a pukki style player and went up. More than 1 way to get promoted from this league. 1-0, 1-1, 1-0 means 7 points, we keep doing that we'll go up. Bring it on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, using that logic, Mitrovic is on course to score 40 odd league goals Do you think he will? History suggests Fletcher, Harris and Reach won’t score 45 league goals. Of course all those things COULD happen, but it’s unlikely they will. It’s just applying some common sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
