A fit Danny Wellbeck still looks like a baller.

14 goals in the last 5 seasons Danny Welbeck?

Jack Cork and Isaac Hayden have only a year left on their contracts. Both proven performers in the top division, Cork in particular is underrated I think. Either would be a solid signing for us in an area that desperately needs strengthening.

Shiqiri from Liverpool would be worth a look, hardly kicked a ball this season but an experienced international wide player who scores and creates, temperament wise I’m not sure but the talent is certainly there.

Couldn't agree more.  The absolute last thing we need is yet another goal shy striker.

In fairness, that's quite prolific for us.

I'm not actually sure which is worse his scoring record or his injury record. He's had at least two major injuries since he joined Arsenal.

For me, in:

That Canadian bloke I looked up (Belgian team) £30 million
St Maximum £30 million
Sarr £30 million
That Norwich bloke with the shit hair £25 million
Abraham £30 million
Haarland £70 million

Out:

Lansbury £10 million
Jota £10 million
Bree £5 million
Chester £5 million
Samatta £20 million
The Croatian goalkeeper can't remember his name £5 million
Hogan (Small Heath) £190 million and we'll throw in Drinkwater.

We massively improve the squad, make a profit AND bankrupt the Blose.

Piece of piss this management lark.

I have my thoughts and Risso has his. I'll leave it at that.

All I'd add to that is Gerd Muller and Stanley Matthews.

Muller doesn't do enough outside the box, just a German Scott Hogan.

That’s just silly they’re both too slow for premier league football.

Danny Drinkwater seems to have settled in well - i would imagine he will be our 1st signing for £5 million
