Still Getting linked With Strikers 08:31 - Aug 11 with 593 viewsSaintNick

Saints are still being linked with strikers in the media, it seems that certain media sources looking for clickkbait are unaware that we signed two yesterday and are now top heavy with them

We've replaced a top PL striker with a top Championship one and brought in the Chelsea Academy lad but it looks like Obafemi will be off which will even things out.

Long has returned but looks next to useless so assume he will be loaned out to the Champ/L1 at some point.

So the 3 strikers we have left aren't exactly going to get many PLs teams worrying this season. I very much doubt the phrase 'free scoring Southampton' will be uttered.

I wouldn't be too unhappy if we did add another striker. It's not as if Theo/Redmond/Djenepo are going to score many goals is it?

The main issue we had last season was lack of squad depth. Has this changed?

Added a RB so that gives us more depth there.
Added 2 strikers but have lost one and will probably lose Obafemi so no change there.
Possible loss of Vestergaard so that would leave us with only 3 CBs so would need to add one before the window closes.

The biggest weakness in squad depth last year was in CM. We had only 3 CM players in the squad which meant we often had to play Armstrong there and he's not brilliant in that position and it also means he is not playing where he is good. To date we haven't strengthened there which is a concern.

CM and CB need an addition or we are one injury away from trouble

One injury away from Stephens starting if Herman goes.

We thought that we had the answers, It was the questions we had wrong.
Poll: Knowing what we know now, should we have sacked Hasenhüttl?
