The Great January Striker Hunt

[Fox]

I expect Spurs, Chelsea, Arsenal and us all to be looking for a top striker in Jan

They all have more money than us so what can we really get.

Also is the new man likely to be 3rd in order when Danny is fit or a future replacement for suarez if he fecks off to Madrid.

It will be an interesting Jan

Will Tottenham have more money than us, after all the cash they splashed in the summer?

Either way, I suspect we're more likely to prioritise midfield if we spend in January.

Spurs net spend is pretty low

Someone like hulk would be good for us, lead the line and play in front 3 positions.

Their net spend is £4m our net spend is £21m.

Fair point, but how much did they have to start with before the Bale windfall?

Always liked him, he looks like he was built to play in this league.

Every time I've watched Hulk he's been largely underwhelming. He's got an impressive set of attributes - strength, speed and at times, good touch, but not seeing a 50M player there or whatever it would cost to buy him.

It doesn't matter though, we have as much chance of signing Hulk as we do someone like Ibrahimovic.

A new striker would be great but I'd buy a midfielder first.

Their net spend is £4m our net spend is £21m.

Factor in their massive hike in wages (replacing 1 player with 6 high earners) and they blew a lot in the summer.

This next window is likely to join the long list of windows where departures rather than arrivals have been the main source of satisfaction and optimism.

Aston Villa, here is £15-20m, please sell us Benteke.

Thank you.
