If we sign Shane Long (i know why haven't even been linked with him) No body is to sign Shane Long's on fire :twisted:

I see what you did there :lol:

I wouldn't want Shane Long anyway, is he an upgrade really? Will he take us to the next level?

If Lacazette fails, getting Bentekkers and Gomez would be amazing

Slimani the most realistic from that list.

Our 1st, 2nd and 3rd choice strikers would all be over 6'2 and lacking in pace.

I think we need someone agile. Benteke and Walcott would be a better fit.

Walcott is worse than Andy Carroll getting injured though

Don't think it's that serious, apart from a serious injury in 2014 he's only missed the odd month. Before that he wasn't to bad either.

nah, he's much better at it

[Alfiehammer]

In traditional form, I'd like us to sign a traditional number 2, number 9 and number 10. Two three players straight into the first 11

Adrian, ?????, Reid, Ogbonna, Cresswell, Noble, Kouyate, Feghouli (maybe), Payet, ?????, ?????

with

Randolph, Byram Tomkins, Collins (Burke, Oxford), ?????, Nordtveit, Obiang, Lanzini, Antonio, Samuelsen
Carroll, Sakho

as competition for places

I find that incredible that you would drop Antonio, arguably a shout out for our HOTY in favour of untried and tested feghouli (albeit with a maybe). For me, Antonio is one of the first names on the team sheet and other have to work and play their balls off to earn the right to displace him...

Does anyone else think Batshuayi going Chelsea is a waste for him? Is he really going to start over Costa? Unless Conte stick 2 up front

[Jfar90]

very good!

[Gep]

Pace. Bring in some pace in our forwards.

I think Batshuayi will get a shock when one of Higuain/Benzema or Morata turn up !

Anyone criticizing Walcott's injury record and wanting Gomez here needs to re evaluate their thinking,imo.

Apparenlty Conte will play two up front.

Me too. Ran himself into the ground for Ireland in the Euro's.
