We’ve scored a pathetic 27 league goals this season

Gyokeres has 12 of them. 3 are from Godden whose injured so we have 12 from available players in 25 games. If you had your way and Allen was shipped out it’s 9 in 25 games

Actually 8 as Mcfazdean is out for most of the season

Well yes if you take 4 players including the top scorer away from the list of goalscorers then we haven't scored many goals.

That's such a bizarre point even for you.

In fairness, it's something I've been banging on about for ages as well. Without Gyökeres we don't score anywhere near enough goals across the pitch. Our midfield are extremely goal shy, to the point it's almost parody.

Of course, but we aren't the only team to be reliant on one goalscorer and that assumes that we wouldn't replace him.

We survived with Biamou up front for half a season.

I'm sure if we signed a couple of decent players with the money we'd survive just fine.

certainly not me - we need to keep him. If king has any actual ownership intent he has to give him a pay busting contract - won’t stop offers but should protect him for the season

Who will we sign. Bismou was on his own was he? I thought Walker was top scorer?

How am I supposed to know who we will sign?

Biamou and Walker made 20 starts each.

If we can survive with Biamou making 34 appearances I'm sure we could survive without Gyökeres for 20 games (with replacements).

Nope. Take McF and O'Hare out of the side and it's a limp dick. Take Gyo out as well and it's fallen off

I think to be honest Matty James was a huge factor in us staying up-would you agree?

Always the bit that gets missed. Sell Gyok and bring in 4 others and what’s to say we don’t spread the goals throughout the team/squad more?

After Brighton get a cut and SISU or King take their slice back would we even have enough to do that?

I would be slightly concerned about us signing permanent deals in January too (same reasons selling Gyokeres is good, inflated prices and panic meaning not necessarily the right players). That being said, I just can't see we'd implode so spectacularly we'd go down, I can't.

Yes exactly, which is why Grendel's 'take four players goals out and we don't score many goals' point is just ridiculous.

We probably have too many points on the board to go down from here, even if we implode.

Yes my preference would be to sell Gyokeres and do the rebuild in the summer, for the reasons you give.

But yes if he were to leave in Jan I don't think we'll be relegated.

You'd hope so! I can see how a club down among the dead men is probably a harder sell to potential new signings than a midtable up team however.

One thing's for sure, we'd need some kind of striker from somewhere for the rest of the season, unless we fancy playing Palmer up there more regularly.

We're not doing this shit again because it's so fucking boring.

But you said Gyokeres was Biamou's natural successor and bemoaned the recruitment team for signing someone who couldn't get in tbe team ahead of Biamou and Bakayoko.
