24/25 Pre Season

Gakpo should score - then Doak should score - Darwin heads it home but offside

[jozza800]

Konate playing so whoever said he was injured was smoking crack OR has a crystal ball

Yep, not even a hint of him carrying a knock.

Same with Doak, someone suggesting he wasn't in the squad and that he was off (mind, he still might be for all we know).

Glad that bore of a game is over - Slot will have lots to ponder

Didnt see either fixture.. how did Nunez play in the later game?

Like he'd never been away. Shite.

[justme]

Ah right, he may be away soon..if he gets a lengthy ban

Ah right, he may be away soon..if he gets a lengthy ban

that right there is the problem and reason I thought we'd bring someone in that can play upfront

if he does, and come on jota won't stay fit all season sadly, gakpo every game?

£50m would get us Liverpool fan Ivan Toney if we were doing some last minute panic buying of a forward

[Steveo]

Dunno why but to me it feels likely he'd turn into the next Ricky Lambert were he to come and play for the club he supports.

Feel like we should be looking for a natural goal poacher - a born finisher. A Daniel Sturridge type with no knee issues. We don't have anything close bar the injury prone Jota.

Yeah, i'm not massively struck on the idea of Toney.

As we discussed earlier about the death of the tricky winger, out and out goal scorers are going the same way. The best forward players in the world are direct wide men. Oshimen, Laeo, MBappe Vinicius Jnr.

Think the last truely great striker was Benzema.

I would kill for another Torres, Suarez or Sturridge.
