According to the Guardian we have dropped our interest in Tosun and Okazaki as Benteke is fit again. Saw that coming months ago. I understand posters who say "we will be alright no need to panic" but SP is playing a dangerous game with the PL future of my club. We can only have about 20 players in our squad, 4 of whom are goalkeepers To be honest I have not been aware of any interest in Okazaki.In the final analysis our options are limited due to financial constraints but should we fail to strengthen and we are relegated high grade ordnance will be dropped on Parish & Co and he will be ripped apart by the 'Hyenas' on HOL, the BBS and beyond.

That was virtually a done deal.

Salko on TalkSPORT, when asked about any transfer activity, replied now that Benteke and Wickham fit with Ayew full of confidence, there is no great need this window. Keep the gunpowder dry, was the phrase used.

Keep the gunpowder dry, was the phrase used. We've had 1 PL goal from a striker this season. I would love to ask Salako what his definition of 'fit' is. If that means 'technically able to run' then I would suggest Benteke has been refusing to even do that since the start of last season and it's all well and good for Wickham, but what I've seen so far is that he has forgotten how to kick a ball in his time out, let alone play football, and have been thinking this recently, am I right to only remember his goal against Man City a while back being his only one at Selhurst Park or have there been others? We are so desperate currently we are relieved to see Wickham back, but I seem to recall thinking he was on a sort of Jon Macken, Calvin Andrew-esque level of goalscoring ability anyway and wanting to physically assault CB unless he paid for my season ticket? Maybe my memory is fading with age.
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

If Benteke and Wickham are fit, how come neither has started a game yet? It's bollocks really, Wickham's been out 2 years and is going to be delicate to say the least. Tekkers has been injured numerous times in the last 2 seasons so he's unlikely to hit the ground running, and to say Ayew is full of confidence is clutching at straws lol. We're either skint or Parish and Co are just deluded. Our squad is massively short of numbers.

We're not skint but they clearly believe we have enough to stay up, it's a gamble for sure. We're two or three injuries away from being in the sh!t. For thr record I think we'll stay up but I think it'll be closer this year than previous years.

SP is Russian roulette with our premiership place, a game where you die in the end.
