    Will agree to disagree there.

    He's only been playing as a striker for us for 5 months. People weren't clamoring for it before kyogo left and now suddenly we won't find better? I'm not convinced.

    Still think he offers a lot out wide. As it stands for me we still haven't replaced kyogos spot in the squad regardless.

    The attitude that we don't need another striker is a dream for the board.

    Aye. Doesn't mean I need to agree with it though.

    We sold our best striker albeit one on the downward, didn't replace him, moved a guy who scored 20+ out wide inwards. I still see gaps there. Big question marks about Idah long term too.

    Let's see what happens.

    I prefer we signed another striker too as I like Maeda out wide but it's not up to us sadly

    So that means we'll need 2 left wingers with Jota out for at least half the season? and a right winger or someone that can play either side, 2 if Kuhn goes..

    Can't see that..

    I reckon we announced KT now because this one is a go-er and almost ready to announce

    His medical is complete by all accounts, should be announced in coming days.

    I've got a feeling this boy will play a far bigger role next season than many are assuming.

    Not sure whether this would be good news. Might mean he's class. Might also mean Idah is unreliable (or a little bit of both).

    Personally, I love the fact he's a mobile striker. Not a fan of slow-moving target men, although they may come up useful against teams parking the bus.

    You've watched Idah for 18 months like the rest of us ....

    Can't fathom how this could be bad business for a development fee only... Even if he's only average we'll probably still pick up £5-8M if he's got a league winner medal and some CL experience... :39:

    We're not signing yet another striker to sit on the bench.

    Rodgers has already said it would be easier for us to find wingers than a striker.

    Khun has 4 years left on his deal. He's not going anywhere

    2 wingers this summer is the absolute minimum considering Khun is only 1st team quality one we have and even then that's dependent on his mood

    Balls in our court.

    Would be * madness to let him go after Jotas injury. Had Jota not got injured then aye probably but really don't see it now

    That was before our starting left winger * his knee..

    Then we saw our main man up top starting back on the left..

    We'll see about Kuhn..

    Yep and what it showed is Maeda is far more effective through the middle.

    If we can find someone better within our budget then happy enough with Maeda going back out wide but given our recent history of recruitment I don't see it

    Aye like him there as well but I still kinda want a top number 1 striker in. It's a tough one..

    If you're right, we absolutely need at least a couple of top quality wingers in then..
