Roy’s definitely preparing himself for the worst ala last January!! The fact that wickham keeps getting mentioned and benteke coming back as well means he’s preparing us for the fact we won’t be signing a striker.

Which part of "this is something that will be addressed in January with hopefully the addition of one or two players" is confusinig you?

How wonderful it would be for SP and Freedman to have clearly identified the two players we need and complete the signings early,for once ,rather than at the last minute.

Whoever we sign (if) will be a player that another club wants to offload. More concerning is how this/these players would be used and in what sort of tactical system. Hodgson is fixated on 4-4-2, so what is it to be?

Loftus-Cheek a case in point.

RLC came on loan and was actually out injured for a lot of last season. Clearly we can't go splashing out £30m on a couple of players, so what do we do? Loan again? Look at Ayew, he's s***e!

I would assume the board does exactly that (actually before then if you think about Guaita!) but they can't make a move until the next window opens. And then it's a matter of negotiation - which always requires patience. Rubbish, Its perfectly legal and above board to negotiiate with a club and a player outside of the transfer window. In some circumstances its even possisible to draw up a pre contract agreement with both so that the deal is done the minute the window opens.
