Yeah, we need a goalscorer.
We have an Andy Carroll shaped hole & a 1m 18 year old.
Joy. Deep joy.

And in all fairness if we had fuck all money to spend on first team goalscorers we shouldn't have spent a million on an 18 year old youth player. Especially if that million could have gotten a senior player over the line
That is a good price.
I know - in this age, 6M is nothing. The Echo is saying 5M up front, with 2M worth of add-ons is all it would have taken, If we cannot affort that price at this moment I can only think they want to save up for something in January window. However, I wonder if it will be to late by then, and as one caller on the radio put it - Spurs are currently Liverpools closest rivals for 4th spot.
This kid is exciting and hopefully will make first team. Lest we not forget at age Fowler or Owen.
Yeah but my point is that we need first team goalscorers now, he was signed for the youths. That extra million would have got us dempsey probably. Anyway Im over it now. We'll just have to manage with what we have
Good player but meh. Who gives a fuck.
We really needed a proper striker who could lead the line. Not a converted attacking midfielder.
TBH, any player who is capable of scoring 23 goals in one season might be of benefit to a team that only managed about 50 league goals last year.
Hey man!!! Thats like HALF a Messi!!
yes he would, but additionally if Keniget has doubts about the signing then we will find out as the guy is in a better team with better players so we will see if his goals tally goes up this season.
I hope he scores none for spurs & we are all over the moon we dodged a bullet.
He may be old, he may not be a big name signing but this is a player who has played almost 200 games and scored 50 goals in the league.
1. Its not like we already have enough and better options
2. This attitude is only good enough if we maintain this stance of being strong and tough negotiator in the transfer market. See Carroll, Adam, Spearing deals.
3. Targets were different. Of cos, we were also fighting to be in top 4 but ultimately, the aim was to make the next step up and challenge for honors. Now, we're taking baby steps to CL qualificaton first. Besides, the strength in depth of the squad is quite different.

I'm not arsed we didnt sign Dempsey mate. I'm arsed we've weakened our striking options.
Definitely this. I wouldn't have wanted dempsey at the start of this window. Or ever before actually.
But now we're left with NO ONE up front as a striker.
It fucking reeks of fsg stitching us up.
I really want him to do well but Dear Lord every time he scores every man and his dog will just continually highlight the monumental failures of yesterday.
it's not like we are going to be able to forget yesterday for the next 4 months
Yes, it's not as if most football fans have incredibly short memories when positive things suddenly happen.
