Lukaku wants the ball 3 yards in front of him all the time. He only scored 4 goals against the top 5 sides, the rest were against the lower placed teams. For 75 Million we could buy 4 or 5 overseas players and still have change!

Honestly, with FDB as our manager and with the current squad we've got I'm not too stressed. FDB is not Pardew, he is not an idiot. I do not believe that FDB will roll out the type of unprepared team that Pardew did for the first match last season. And if we'd got only a few points from the easybeat teams we'd have been safe well before Hull. Without any additions, this is a team capable of beating any team in the prem. But what Pardew had us doing last season was losing to easybeats - our defense was completely disorganised and timid. FDB will IMHO get this team, especially the defense, more disciplined and consistent. Additions like Sahko will be a bonus - but I am not stressed - we'll stay up. I really admire your optimism, whilst the current forward line is okay we lack good defensive players who can pass the ball out of defence to a Palace player, all they currently understand is the big hopeful boot upfield and then they rely on luck where ever it comes down. We need a least a good CB and defensive midfielder and probably a goal keeper just to hold our own, without any additions last season team will struggles again and I really fear that we will not win against Huddersfield which is one of those games we have to win!

It has been reported that Mourinho and Conte have become frustrated at the lack of transfer activity at their clubs. To be fair, it was mentioned that De Boer would assess what was at our club before dabbling in the market.

Another stupid strand. FDB assessing squad instead of wasting money. Get real and stop wasting time moaning. Signings will happen when required FDB is an experienced footballing individual.
