We need goals, we'll get goals. Brian, Tammy and Moise will score! 😉

Malen isn't good enough to start for us and that's what he wanted.

We need options. Those options are extremely thin for a club fighting on 3 fronts. Malen was a very very good impact player, as was Duran, as was Diaby, because they are different to Watkins. We have to get a couple of forward options in this month, and not just the leggy Championship striker.

I'm not convinced by Abraham, hopefully I'm wrong if he replaces Malen

Diaby is the one I miss most from that list. He combined with Watkins. Duran just wasn't right for the team morale.

Last winter window was decent with Asensio and Rashford, that's the sort of quality id like us to be searching for.

I’m with you on that. Diaby was exciting and I thought for his first season he was generally a success.

Yeah me too, I get that he was patchy but thought he would get better and better in his second season. Wonder if he’s available on loan? And other of the younger players out in Saudi might want a bit more of a shop window with the WC coming.

Presumably most of them will still be hamstrung by that thing where they get taxed on their Saudi blood money if they come to the UK too soon?
