Ah, didn’t realise that. I tend not to follow the summer transfer news as I can’t be bothered with all of the b o llocks spouted to fill column inches.

How many pens?
I know he had 9 in that 20 goal season, 11 open play goals ain't much to write home about
Bedfordspurs
Chris Waddle
Playing for a defensive long ball side
still doesn't make him a proven striker imv, proven to do an ok/decent job for a mid table outfit sure
Who is a proven striker in your eyes? Could you name 10?
Bedfordspurs
Chris Waddle
Hmmm
I don’t agree
I’d argue that he has already done it for a mid table side and that’s why he would step up
doing it for a mid table club doesn't mean he will step up, you're banking on him upping his level, which is why i say he isnt proven - a striker scoring 10-12 goals a season isn't going to cut it for us.
IDK beyond the obvious, which is why I'm not fussed about the position atm - options are either spend eye watering sum on players probably out of our reach, bank on potential or over pay for average players.
Tbh i'm the same. Not sure a few mentioned are better than a fit richarlison. If we can get him fit.

Sounds like some of Kane’s seasons tbf.
Bedfordspurs
Chris Waddle
Which is the issue
Be doesnt have a good record for us at staying fit

Chris Waddle
I’d say scoring 10-12 goals plus the penalties for a team that creates less chances should mean in a team that creates more, he could score nore
We saw it with Richy last season when playing CF and IMO Toney is better than him at everything

Les Bennett
a 20 goal season for Kane was a brick one
in his 9 seasons as a regular he scored 275, that's an average of over 30 goals a year

I imagine that would include European goals, which Toney didn’t have a chance to score.
The other issue is, we bring toney in we have both.
I'd be tempted to see if napoli, juve or inter might be interested in a swap. Osimhen is unlikely. But can always ask.
Bedfordspurs
Chris Waddle
But your talking about a guy who was the best in the country and arguably the world
That’s now Haaland… we aren’t getting him a re we
But… the way we play a top striker would get a goal a game here
The opportunities are there if you stay in the right place
We have seen that pre season with Lankshear
Bedfordspurs
Chris Waddle
Who from Inter?
Yeah we would have both. That’s a good thing as one is a striker
Osihmen has an injury record too don’t forget
I’m also not sure how Vlahovic would do playing thsi kind of football. I rate him highly though

Alan Hutton
If you mean Calafiori I think he's lined up for left back and is better than they currently have, can certainly play the position similar to when we had Super Jan.
They're looking strong unfortunately and with the addition of Jurien Timber more depth. Decent striker away from winning the league.
Hopefully they won't have virtually a full season playing the same 11 every game like they seemed to last season.
Baleforce
Les Bennett
I'm talking about guys who are "proven" yeah.
I don't think there are many around, which is why I asked the question, who?
Lautaro martinez.
