He's a second striker or a winger though and we've already got plenty of those. He mostly played up front alongside Ayew for the Jacks.Originally Posted by A Quiet Monkfish
Nkounku a left back from Everton ex Marseille on loan from Everton on social media
looks like a decent player
23 games for Standard Liege last season as a 21yo, so no mug.
Happy Transfer Deadline Day to all!
Is it too dramatic to say that the next few hours will make or break our season?
I’m certain we won’t go down and also one striker won’t propel us into the top 6.
We’re doing nothing this season whatever happens in the next few hours
Two forwards in could make all the difference, between being in the bottom third to competing around the top 6,
Hopefully we can offload a few out on loan or free transfers as well, Watters, Harris, and Nelson, going out as a priority and Denham on loan to get games under his belt
I don't share your optimism - we been dropping like a stone lately, if we don't get a couple in and the teams confidence drops we could be in a relegation scrap as early as next month.
Agree.I don't share your optimism - we been dropping like a stone lately, if we don't get a couple in and the teams confidence drops we could be in a relegation scrap as early as next month.
Top 6 or even close seems very far fetched unless we are signing top players at this level.
A couple of decent additions may get us a nice comfy mid table spot though.
Sign no one, or no one that improves on what we have and I believe it will be another scrap even if it's all a bit neater between either box.
Understand a lot of the criticism around the striker situation, hopefully today ends with us nailing a decent forward (or 2) which justifies the wait and us being 'choosy'. If we dont it won't be for a lack of effort I'm sure.
I think losing out on Delap was a real hammer blow but he's not set the world alight at Stoke just yet.
A name that's just popped up is Theo Walcott
Theo Walcott 😂😂😂
Has he played in the last 3 years?
Is he going to play for a tenth of his current wages in a league he probably considers beneath him?
Surprised he’s not in the USA or Middle East

Cardiff City have reportedly shown an 'initial interest' in Southampton forward Theo Walcott.
The Daily Telegraph claim the 33-year-old could well be on the move on deadline day, adding the Bluebirds have shown an 'initial interest', although a number of other suitors are expected to take a look at the former Arsenal man.
WalesOnline understands that while Cardiff have made an initial enquiry, the prospect of a move to the capital is highly unlikely, although given he's yet to earn a single minute of senior football this season, an exit from St Mary's could still be on the cards.

Cardiff are clearly on the hunt for a new striker before deadline day is out, with their shortcomings in the final third exposed once again during the 2-1 defeat at home to Luton Town.
Callum Robinson, Kemar Roofe and Jordan Hugill are among the other names suggested heading into the final hours of the window, and Morison himself insisting the Bluebirds will be doing everything they can to bring someone on board, having been frustrated in their pursuit of several others.
"Sam Surridge is not available," Morison said when asked about the club's striker search. "Liam Delap is someone we looked at, he picked Stoke over us and West Brom. Ellis Simms was someone we looked at but he picked Sunderland over us.
"We have been close. We just haven't got one. The words people going on about, we have been working our behinds off since April last year, hence why we have got the amount of players we have got in.
"Summer holiday... what was a summer holiday? Holidays were sitting up at 4am in the morning, talking to the board while I'm in America, trying to get a player through the door. To keep using the phrases people keep using about us in our hunt for a striker is a bit disrespectful, because we are working as hard as anyone in the Football League to bring someone in.
"If they do, then great, if not then we crack on because that is life."
Kemar Roofe will never happen, considering Rangers need him as Morelos could be out the door.
I know our foreign imports don't often work out but all these linked and that Morrison mentioned has missing out on are in this country.
I know we picked up Collins but I do wonder what our European scouting is like or is it just a case that it adds more hurdles to jump getting them over.
Looking unlikely on player's side though. https://t.co/V6iNWZDOYe

Alright that's that then.
Next name to be linked please guv.
It's all very exciting.
Really difficult due to change in work permits/visas.
Collins got through by a tiny margin apparently.
Glen Williams optimistic on Robinson https://mobile.twitter.com/GlenWilli...68893157015553
I'd be happy with this and Hugil as we definitely need two.
A post on that Twitter link indicates West Brom are looking into the possibility of recalling Kipre. I hope not.
Pretty sure they could only recall in January. I can't see we'd be agreeing to cancel the agreement at this stage.
Me too
Have also been told that this is in hand.
Think you're right. Baggies fans were wondering about it because Ajayi is injured, but I don't think they can recall Kipre.
