    Aye agents will definitely tell clubs expected wages for their players before talks “officially” take place.

    The Idah leaving for over 5m stuff is going to break my heart when it doesn't happen.
    Idah and Yang out for 10m and Dolberg and a quality winger is the stuff of dreams.

    Doubt we will get Dolberg in but think we will splash out a bit on a CF now that Idah is actually going. Didn’t expect that at all I’ve gotta admit.

    We needed a striker before Idah was going.

    Has to be 2 that come in.

    I’m worried the board will do no such thing and reinvest. Can’t see any strikers comin in. Certainly not long term. Vardy potentially for season but that’s obv a stop gap and no part of any sort of rebuild for our front line.

    Feel the board are goin to throw Rodgers under the bus this year. It’s goin to be one slow long * pish season.

    Dont see it.

    Striker and right winger would be more likely although there's been literally nothing about a RW.

    Only way I see a 2nd striker coming in is if Kenny goes and at that it would need to be a homegrown one (Bowie) as we have very little room left in squad for anything else.

    It's more the fact that we wanted 4 players earlier in the week apparently. One being a striker. That's before Idah going.

    Doesn't make a huge amount of sense. As we are essentially only replacing Idah and still not Kyogo, really.

    Osmand and Kenny will probably go on loan before Monday ends.

    Not surprised tbf.

    Even his record in League one in England for a young striker wasn't terrible.

    I wonder if that means that Balikwisha is going to play on the right? (AFAIK he is right-footed).

    We're not getting a striker. Even if Idah leaves, we have four players who can play there. The board are cutting down expenses with a vengeance.

    Yeah think you mite be right. Bit disappointed if true as a lot of his game is about cutting inside and don't think he's overly quick to go by players.

    Suppose if we are in for a striker, then means Maeda is staying on the left and that would explain why we are looking at the Tunisian boy as a cover option bcoz he doesn't look like a starter to me.
