Why has no one snapped up Ollie Watkins? Even though he’d cost a lot.

Only just found out that the Louie Barry signing has made Albion mad, which cheered me up a bit on this rainy day.
Watch the Baggies fans on Soccer AM today scoring a grand total of zero on that penalty shoot out thing they do, that made me laugh.

We should have signed a decent striker by now.  Bad show.

Yeah, the rumours are that we don't want to. Don't think we need one, apparently.

Who should we have signed, Tony because I'm at a loss to see who we can bring in that will actually make a difference?

Watkins and Benrahma look no brainers. Both would suit us perfectly.

How much will that set us back, Oz? I'm still holding out for Bowen + one but right now, not that fussed.

Oh Brentford would demand 50 I reckon. In the summer might be 35 for the pair, and I would be in for them then too.

Problem is Brentford are pushing Leeds for the 2nd auto-promotion spot, 6 points now. Can't see them selling. Hull lost but 3 points off play-offs.

Where have you seen that? Smith has given a couple of press conferences and said we are looking for a striker (or two).

There must be a fair few decent strikers on the planet that we can afford and attract.  That why the board and the manager get paid the big bucks - to find them.  They should have had one or two lined up for the 1st given how light we started the season in the striker dept and how disappointing Wes has turned out to be.

We can’t have much money to spend in January, and everyone will be jacking up the prices for players anyway.

That's what I've heard too. I agree, think it's better saving till the summer.
