Ok calm down big man. What’s he thinking instead? “I could really do with another shit lump upfront who doesn’t know how to score goals? Haven’t got enough of those”. Like others have said it stinks of desperation, Saturday was a pretty clear indication that we need a McNulty replacement and this is far from it.Are you really that fucking dim you think MR is sat at home twiddling his thumbs thinking "Fuck, i'll just sign him because i've got some money"? Jesus wept, please think about these things. It's not Football Manager!
Robins has never made a poor signing in the transfer market? Vincenti? O’Brien? Barrett? Maguire-Drew? He’s done well overall but acting like he’s infalliable is odd
How can he compare them when we have only played one game at this level which I doubt he saw.
Difficult to offload pvLooking at those clips this bloke doesn’t look like a striker to me. If we sign him I expect we’ll see Chaplin or AN Other sign as well.
I also expect we’ll see Vincenti gone and ponticelli out on loan.

Sound, chief. You too xYou're a complete piece
You think? Is he injured still?Difficult to offload pv
I did a comparison between the relegation season strike force and the one we have now. There didn't look to be a lot of difference to be honest.
It's all well and good being patient, and waiting til the window has closed. If you like, give the players 5 games to bed in or whatever.
The reality is this situation looks very desperate as it stands, and there is nothing wrong with expressing some concern at that.
You heard if this ones happening Mr P?If you're looking at stats Rickie Lambert was pretty unimpressive around the same age and became the player we knew him as following a £300k move. (Yes I looked at Wiki.)
Trust what Widdrington sees, what the new guy sees and what Robins sees in Bakayoko.

It’s a shame really. I thought he looked alright start of last year, and seems like a decent bloke. Just hasn’t worked out for him. I know people have said he’s been played out of position but there doesn’t seem anyway back for him with us.A number of clubs have enquired about him but express concern at his current injury. I can't see him leaving permanently if at all if I'm honest. However, if he manages to be rehabilitated in time we may be able to shift him out loan him out after the window closes. That's a big IF though.

JCH
Jordan Ponticelli
Max Biamou
I wouldn't say I'm unhappy but fans need to be realistic. In the current market it is extremely difficult to replace a 25+ striker with another unless you invest significantly. Posters on here seem to believe it's a black and white situation and I'm baffled why. It's not as simple as receiving £1.2m for McNulty then throwing £1.2m at a club for their most prized asset..
Bloody hell that's stark, the top lot are suddenly looking better by comparison! Surely I can't be the first person to think of John Gayle today with the Bakayoko rumour?
In fairness, Bayliss, Ogogo and Andreu are miles better than Gadzhev, Rose and Bigi so we should have better supply this seasonBloody hell that's stark, the top lot are suddenly looking better by comparison! Surely I can't be the first person to think of John Gayle today with the Bakayoko rumour?
Fair point...thanks, made me feel slightly better!In fairness, Bayliss, Ogogo and Andreu are miles better than Gadzhev, Rose and Bigi so we should have better supply this season
No Gren, you're right. Gayle was at least a cult hero in this division at Blues and scored a brace in a Wembley win: Blue-eyed boys - John GayleBit unfair that!
The striker situation is far from ideal but we do thankfully have quite a bit of quality in other areas of the pitch. Perhaps not enough to challenge this year but we shouldn’t be worried about staying upFair point...thanks, made me feel slightly better!
Love how the lad hasn’t even signed yet and he’s already the worse player to ever grace the city shirt.
What is it with city fans and doom and gloom...one game in and we’re already doomed to relegation due to lack of goals in the team.
You do talk shite, you have no first hand evidence base for any of the assertions you've made. You've written Hiwula off already you cretin.
Oh yeah, the Walsall supporting colleague. What did he think of Hiwula or did you just make him up for the sake of the Bakayoko bashing?
As long as he scores more than Kevin Kyle, I think we will all be happy
Utter drivel.
I’ve never heard of him before today. Just watched his Youtube compilation and he looks to have good touch, pace and good link player. We continue to build #risetogether
