Only Sports Republic could spend millions on four totally inept forwards 22:26 - Aug 23 with 1089 viewssaintmark1976

Stewart.
Brerton Diaz.
Downs.
Archer.

Honestly, how is it humanly possible to assemble such a bunch of talentless journeymen no hopers all at the same time ?

Millions spend on transfer fees and wages and not one of them can hit a barn door with a banjo.

Poll: Where will we finish in the upcoming season?

Still need to give Downs time, BUT, point is still true, wouldn't it be lovely to have signed someone ready to bang some goals in ...

Don’t forget they also signed Mara, Sulemana, Orsic and Tall Paul.

Unbelievably Mara is the top scorer of this motley bunch with 8 goals, four more than his nearest rival

And we sold him!
I would actually say of that entire useless bunch probably Mara Tall Paul and Sulemana offer the most goals and we sold all three!
The transfers in and out under this mob are fkn laughable

Already this season, we've seen 3 chances missed a yard in front of an empty goal. That's how bad they are.

If we don't buy a decent centre forward, it's going to cost us at least 20 points.

Add to this Armstrong. He had several chance yesterday and snatched at them all. I dont get how he does not compose himself, stop and pull away from the defender for a better chance. There must be a head injury in there somewhere. Its all too desperate.

Just looking at Stoke a team with less money less appeal and you see what’s wrong, I’d take there goalie, midfield and strikers over ours.

He is never any good as a Centre Forward.
He is best played on the Right Wing.

Downs did zero when he replaced him.
Another cheap buy.

We thought that we had the answers, It was the questions we had wrong.

This is how much Stoke spend:

https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/stoke-city/transfers/verein/512

https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/stoke-city/transfers/verein/512/plus/?saison_id=

Their goalkeeper and centre forward cost them a total of £1 mill.


Saints spent 20 times as much to buy total dross. With the money we spend, Stoke's recruitment department could build 20 Championship teams better than ours.

Yesterday I saw a cross into Stokes penalty area to only sail high over Armstrongs head and mores to the point there was not a single Saints player anywhere near.
If we don’t buy a decent centre forward we will end up mid table or worse.

Agreed our recruitment is an embarrassment.

The problem is our recruitment department don't seem capable of recognising who is and who isn't a decent centre forward. Sometimes, I wonder whether we even bother to send scouts to watch players before we buy them. Did anyone really see Damion Downs play?

Around us yesterday, Downs was called the new Jason Lee and the new Mara.

He is actually the new Ali Dia, but with less enthusiasm !!

Is Pelle or Lambert still kicking around? They would still do better than the shower of shti we have up top
