. we could really do with a big signing now to get us all excited. what happened to all those players we were strongly linked too - the likes of Lozano, Rashford, Kluivert, Batyshui, Mina, Marega. we definitely need a couple of new centre backs, a quality central midfielder than can dictate the play, new right winger as Lookman appears to want to go and I don't see Tosun being good enough for no. 1 striker so need a striker too. Marega impressed me last season at Porto, strong like Lukaku but more to his game than Lukaku and scores goals.

I think Tosun could surprise us this season. His shot conversion rate was really good and considering the lack of chances he did pretty well in front of goal. I imagine with Richarlison and Walcott or Lookman on the wings, and a fully fit Sigurdsson behind him he may bang a fair few in.

I think so too Tommy but we need a contingency if he loses form or gets injured.
Niasse is good off the bench but not a starter.
I wouldn't mind Rondon for the money, always seemed to be a pest for defenders.

FFP constraints may limited the type of player we can go for I can't see us getting anyone that will demand an exceptionally high wage. I would be happy with the club filling the gaps in the squad with good players, we don't need another marquee signing that sucks up a vast majority of our finances.

I'd love Batshuayi. I think him and Richarlison would rip teams to shreds but first we need to get our central defence and midfield sorted out. The signs are that Marco and Marcel are getting there but only a week to go
Squeaky bum time folks

There’s a real finisher there if we give him the right supply, he is not going to run past players but his touch is good and he can hold ball up well but I think he will surprise a few, I think he will get 15 league goals this season.

He might, but if he gets injured or does a Jelevic on us, we need a decent back up.

I really like the look of Rondon Smit. I read somewhere the other day that he was the subject of a bid? Might be wrong like, but he’s a good player imo.

Yeah, with some service, he's going to show his worth this season.
I think he's going to become a very dangerous striker. His work ethic, awareness and accuracy with both feet and His head are begging for more crosses and through balls.

I see no reason other than a wretched injury, stoppin him from plundering 20 league goals. He has the quality.
