Steve_E Posted July 30, 2014 Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 Martinez had said in some interview on SSN yesterday that he still wanted to make 3 attacking signings. I don't think Henen was included in that, as it was with reference to how we'll play with the first team. I still see 2 more after Lukaku.... Although I still can't believe this I going to happen! I'd like two players in every position (plus the youngsters) and three up top. So another winger (preferably a right winger as I'd like to see Mirallas get his chance on the left this season) and another centre forward and I'd be made up.

I don't see us going for another center forward. Lukaku, Kone will hopefully be back, Henen is an option, plus Naismith and Mirallas could play up there if need be. I think winger is a priority. And as little as it's talked about, I think we need another center half. Alcaraz is a joke, and Syl is one wrong step away from a broken hip. gmb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EFC-Paul Posted July 30, 2014 Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 If the reported £5m upfront is true then it's an unbelievable bit of business by the club and you really do have to take your hat off to them. Hopefully that is the case and we still have money left to bring in another good permanent transfer and maybe a loan or two or visa versa, a quality winger and attacking midfielder/front man and I'd be over the moon!

Henen is going in the under 21's so I'm not sure he's much of an option at all really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd settle for getting Traoré back on loan, but we definitely need another centre forward imo. Who knows whether Koné will actually ever be back? Henen isn't a realistic option, perhaps he could be one next year, but he'll probably end up playing on the wing anyway. Naismith and Mirallas are emergency cover. How's Alcaraz a joke btw? Do you mean you think he's shit or do you say it because he's been injured a lot? We've got Jags, Distin, Stones, Alcaraz and at the moment Duffy and Browning as well.

MC11 Posted July 30, 2014 Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 Think there will be a couple more come in. Another striker and a winger on LOAN.... Which will be ace! As we all know how much that winds the redshirt up. Hopefully a Barcelona wonderkid. We're about to sign Lukaku for £25m ))))))) made up!!!!

Alcaraz bar his fitness is a more than capable stand in Distin is a physical freak Stones is more than ready to step in full time and we have Jags plus Besic if push comes to shove will surely be used as cover as could Duffy but I'm not sure he's cut out for this level. I think we will make do with what we have and once/if Galloway joins it may be a case of time and experience before he and Stones become our future pairing if he's as good as some say.
