Not the type of striker listed above anyway.  Wouldn't rule out another wide forward or "number 10" type coming in.

A center half I think is a must. We won't get one, but it is a must. We've only got Okore, who is still something of an unknown quantity too. A number 10 type of forward/attacking mid is also important. Someone who can make things happen when we're struggling to break teams down. We can't just rely purely on Benteke.

Hutton is seemingly on his way, Bent won't be be long either. I think Bannan should get another club in the next few weeks. Once we shift a few I think Lambert will have another couple of in-bounds.

We have more strikers than British Leyland. By the sound of the latest defensive horror show, it's centre halves that we need.

Lem Hibs were  in for him, but he's now gone to seek fame at Suffragette City.

Inter’s proposed move for Basel’s Aleksandar Dragovic has hit a snag, so the Nerazzurri are focusing their attention on Danilo.

The 22-year-old Austria international has been heavily linked with a move to San Siro this summer, with stories emerging earlier this month that a deal had all-but been agreed.

However, negotiations have hit stalemate, and as such Walter Mazzarri’s side are focusing on other targets – one of those being Udinese’s Brazilian defender.

The 29-year-old was virtually ever-present for the Zebrette last season playing in 32 League games for Francesco Guidolin’s men.

He could be available for around €8m.

Given our current defensive worries it would be nice to think someone like this was a possible target.

A center half I think is a must. We won't get one, but it is a must.

With the run of games we have August-Nov, I don't think it will be a complete surprise to most if we're on the end of some pretty ugly scorelines.   Some of our worst games are in August, and that might increase the pressure to strengthen the backline.

Of course, we might start the season like a house on fire, making such concerns redundant.

But the first game that looks anything like a home banker to me (and we know football rarely works out that way) is Cardiff at home in November. Some might point to Newcastle at home in September, but we often struggle against them during good times and bad.  Hull City away in early October looks like a decent chance of three points too, but dealing with Steve Bruce sides is usually about as comfortable (and as entertaining) as root canal surgery.

Chelsea away has been postponed. So we have Arsenal away where we have a decent record and Liverpool at home. Points in both is a possibility. I think some folks are making far too much of this supposed tough start.

Up to the end of November the only 2 tough away games are Arsenal and possibly Chelsea depending on when it was rescheduled. At home we have Liverpool, Spurs, Man City and Everton. Only one of those that would worry me is City. Racists have Goofy suspended, Spurs may have a new manager and no Bale, Everton have a new manager so who knows how they will do.

[supertom]

I'd fancy that we'll play Arsenal before they've sorted themselves out a new striker. I also don't think the Suarez issue will be resolved either, which will effect Liverpool. I'd fancy us to get a couple of points minimum. Liverpool also have to bed in a new defence now that Carraghers hung his boots up. Can see Tekkers cleaning house.

I do still fancy us to outscore teams. But our defence won't be much better than the tail end of last season without a quality addition. I don't think we'll be december-Jan bad by any means, but clean sheets are unlikely. A really quality center back who can organise could solve half the problem.

I'd guess Helenius is the replacement for Bent. Plus with so many promising youngster coming through we should be well covered. Wiemann too is best through the middle so if injuries dictate he may get moved in field. There's no way we'll buy another out and out striker. If anything we may get someone who can cover attacking mid or one of the wide forward roles.

VK do you have Altidore posters in your bedroom by any chance?
