    We're the lowest scorers in the league.
    We're under transfer embargo rules limiting our options.

    It's an absolute no brainer.
    This is the thing isn't it, we either get someone like Hugill/Kaba, who has qualities even if they aren't necessarily high scoring or we for someone unproven like an Etete.

    We aren't in the market to buy someone proven at this level.

    It's panic stations really.

    He's a physical presence, he can clearly score goals and he can take the pressure off Robinson and they can maybe form a partnership

    Sorted

    Sounds like he'll fit right in.
    What a review that is!

    Yes but we can’t afford him even if we weren’t in this mess.

    We could. Vinnie is minted.

    Long pockets though, which given his belt height are some of the deepest pockets known to man.

    A glowing reference it isn't.

    Was waiting for the last bit to read 'but apart from that he isn't a bad player'

    Zohore released by West Brom.

    Albion have today terminated the contract of Kenneth Zohore by mutual consent.

    "The 29-year-old striker joined the Baggies from Cardiff City in July 2019 and made 23 appearances for the club, scoring five goals.

    "The club wishes Kenneth and his family all the very best for the future."

    Yeah that's gotta hurt.
    I was shocked we were getting a fee for him, when I saw how much, I was preying that the City fans stayed quiet and West Brom didn't back out of the deal.

    Crazy bit of business for us that was!

    Josh Onomah just released by Fulham.... he scored that 'John Barnes Maracana-esque' goal against us in the play-offs

    he only played 643 minutes for wba, about 7 games, so 5 goals is actually an excellent ratio

    Re: Transfer deadline day Tuesday 11pm...rumours

    I’d take Zohore until the end of the season.

    As much as I think he was one of the best centre forwards we've had in 20 years (for a period of a month) I dont think i'd take him back.

    a couple of seasons ago our wage bill was like 35m, and then we reduced our income by 30m because we lost parachute payments, we've been having to slash costs ever since to try to stay within FFP

    Right.
    So how can we still be being outspent by many other clubs in this league, many of them who have not had the riches of a couple of trips to the Premier League?
