Im still hopeful there is a player in scott Hogan. RHM did well on loan as well

Farbeit from me to tell anyone to stop hoping, but.............



I think there is a player in Scott Hogan. But if there is it is a Championship player and not a Premier League player.

Maupay off to Sheffield United then?

That's a good signing for them. One we should have made IMO.
Yes, I was hoping we were in for him too but clearly not. 

Perhaps he can only play in red and white stripes. He could turn out to be another Brentford striker who left for a big fee and failed to justify it.

Not being pessimistic but we have to spend money on class players who have an edge eg Benrahma-Lolley-Wilson-Butland-Gail. We need game changers to enhance the quality we already have. Grealish-Mcginn-Wesley. We have got to grasp premiership mentality. And like now !!!!!

I'm not sure we can put Wesley up there with Jack and SJM yet.  Most of us have never seen him play.  None of us have seen him play in the Premier League.  For that matter none of us have seen SJM play in the Premier League.

It took 30 years to find the Japanese Second World War Soldier, i reckon Scott Hogan “ the player” will prove even more illusive.

I also think Hogan isn't as bad as some make out.  He's never had a proper run in the team to see what he can do except where it was hoofed up to him as if it was John Carew.  And even then he managed to score a few.

five I think and then, as fleeting as the spark from a strike of a match, he was gone.

Time to move on.  I was never convinced he was that good anyway and fuck Leeds, I don't want us to bankroll their promotion challenge.

Genuinely hoped we would have a few more over the line by now. As an absolute minimum we need x2 CB’s, DM, Winger, Striker. Ideally add in another GK, CM and Winger. Means we need in 0.83 a week or ideally 1.33 a week from now

I’m confused which of you is pessimistic then?

We got into the premiership by the skin of our teeth. We can't expect to suddenly make signings that are going to put us into the top 10. Patience and a realistic aim of survival will suffice for me this season.

I must assume we’ve got our ducks in line, talked to agents and made sure the players are keen and that the team may sell for the right price. But not shown our hands on the deals where we know there’s no competition, to get the best price.... 🤞 could go to deadline day for a couple.
