Is it just me?

So far we have signed two strikers and an attacking midfielder and we our linked with two other strikers.
We already have Frazier, Maynard, mason and Jones.
I know these players were not the best in the prem but would be very good in the championship!
Do we need all these attacking outlets
Options please? :thumbup:

Mason is not an out and out striker, Fraizer will be gone and Jones does not fit the way we will play (that's a nice was of saying he is gash).

its really important that we get rid of Jones, with his wages, and Bellamys already gone, it frees up a heck of a lot off the wage bill

Agreed - my thoughts exactly. With some other faces to leave the club, even more of the prem wages will be gone as well. Lets face it we were shocking in front of goal last season, so Ole must have identified his priority was to get some strikers in first and work on the rest of the team after that goal was achieved.

which is fair enough, personally i would make changes in other areas too, i'd get rid of fabio for example, if hes on anywhere near 30k a week. Caulker and Marshall are on a fair whack too and both of them will be gone by the looks of it, as well as Medel.

I still imagine we will have one of the biggest wage bills in the division (thats why parachute payments exist anyway) but we have an opportunity to whack a good 10m off the yearly bill and i hope we can do that.

We've spent the past how many season saying "we need more options up front?
We need a target man.. We need a goal scorer....
We've watched the teams around us add players whilst we have dittered.


Now when we strengthen people moan. :lol:
