We've done some excellent business imo by selling Gayle & McCarthy. Townsend, Tomkins & Mandanda for just £9m is incredible.
I'm not unhappy if we start with Wickham supported by by a selection from Bolasie, Townsend, Zaha, Puncheon & Cabaye. But, stating the obvious (as many others have done), we must sign 1 or 2 other "first team" quality strikers in this transfer window either as backups for or as competition for Wickham. Given the good business that's been done to date, I'm hopeful that we're still in the market for a £25m+ player - whether it's Benteke, Berahino or Bony. Hoping it's one of these specific Bs rather than any B.

I work near Wykham Farm and mention it in texts so my phone has obviously remembered it. The 3-4-2 was obviously a typo.

Surely we get to laugh at the sorry mess?

Hopefully their next target is matchfit, and can start on 13th. If so, we are still in with a chance of getting him to Palace - and playing by 31st August

I dont think Berahino is going anywhere until WBA get a replacement striker in, and we now know that's not going to be Sakho, but last year Spurs did express interest, so its logical they should again. If we do get 2 good strikers in, it'll be a .....Miracle!

Personally felt this was the case all along and still do. This transfer was really close in Jan, only WBA blocking the move. WBA waiting for a fully fit replacement for him to move, being the only stumbling block now.
