A lot can happen in 3 days.
But we are beginning to run out of time.
Think the best we can hope for is these 3:-
- the Corinthians striker
- West Brom’s Tom Fellows, a very good right-winger with an end product, unlike any of our wide players
- Ramsdale, though I can’t see us breaking our wage structure to sign him
But will probably need Onuachu to leave to help pay for it.
Here’s hoping. |  |

It needs the manager to pick a Centre Forward and tell McCarthy to put his foot through the ball.
The last two defeats have been on the manager.
Start as you mean to go on this Saturday Russell Martin.
Please. |  |

It won't be long before you have a minus sign in front of that number. |  |

The 3 most important players:
1 goalkeeper
2 centre forward
3 centre half
You spend as much as you can afford on these 3 players because they are the spine on which all SUCCESSFUL teams are built.
Meanwhile, unsuccessful teams are built by blowing most of the transfer budget on a lot of peripheral players like wing-backs and wingers [Post edited 28 Aug 2024 8:50]

Tom Fellows has made a good start to West Brom's season with 3 assists, but I am not sure that he has the track record of an end product, last season in 33 Championship games he scored 4 goals and 3 assists
Compare that to Sam Edozie who in 32 games scored 6 goals and 3 assists and even Sekou Mara who in 28 games had 3 goals and 2 assists, their end product is better in the case of Edozie and not far off in the case of Mara, who only had 547 minutes action compared to Fellows 1,490.
So in 40 Championship games in his career so far Fellows has had 4 goals and 6 assists. in total, not sure that he is the man that we need, when people are calling for Premier League experience.
He is a promising player, I like most know little about him other than his stats and they are not any better than what we have.
Our issue is that we are trying to avoid having to take a Premier League player on loan ie Ramsdale and tying the second Premier League loan signing.
Thats why we went for Bijlow, that would leave us a shot at Fraser, Ward Prowse or even Ings, to name the obvious or other options in the less obvious. |  |

West Brom’s strikers are crap, or they certainly were last season.
Fellows creates a lot of chances, is a great crosser of the ball.
Have watched him a few times, he reminds me of Darren Anderton. He’s understated and does a heck of a lot more than you expect him to when you look at him. Deceptively quick.
Trust me, Nick. He is in a whole different League to Mara and Edozie. They were playing for a better team, so their stats are distorted. | |

We need a Centre Forward FFS.
No point crossing the ball if there’s no bad boi in the box. | |

Saints were only marginally worse than Saints and as most were saying on here, we lacked a centre forward last year, so not sure that it gives a distorted picture.
If fellows is that much better than Edozie, think how many goals Sekou might have got with decent service.  | |

So it seems we bid £10m for the Fellows fellow. I suppose the bid was inevitable
- less than £20m and the possibility of future profit for a
- 21 year old with talent but no PL experience
- who's a winger | | | |

Abraham’s wages would be up there with Ramsdale….. | |

Might as well give Paul Onuachu a run in the team.
Can’t believe I’ve said it. | |

It looks like we're just about to make our most important signing.
