I'd try and get Lyle Taylor from AFC Wimbledon.

Seems he has all the attributes to play the lone striker role.

Yep good shout, however, looking at his Wiki site, every time he has scored loads of goals a bigger club has come in a got him, only for him to dry up :? see his Senior career https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyle_Taylor

Don't need a striker, we have plenty. Let's see how Samuel and Mendes do first. Not a promotion year so we can afford to wait.

Wow that is comical :oops: to be fair he does look similar to Samuel. Trouble is that Samuel is injured twice as long as he's fit

Someone agrees!

We need to let Samuel, Mendes, maybe even Meite have a chance to play as the lone front man. We then have Kermie & Rakels too, with Nova in reserve. Why would we spend money we could save for Jan if we have untested promising strikers at the club already?

This should be Samuels breakthrough year; as proven in the u21's he can get a hat trick on his day and I can't remember the last time anyone scored a hat trick in the first team :? I think him and Meite could really cause problems given the opportunity.

This is where people will start to tell you that because it was in the cup/against 10 men it doesn't count :roll:

Agree Samuel deserves a chance. Then we have Kermit, Mendes and Meite can play up front. I do think we'll bring in a loan striker though.

Reckon we'll go for one from overseas to bolster...

....but if we did go for a loan, I'd love us to see if we could get Solanke.

Another +1 to the Appiah love. Is he still alive after his injury for Ghana?
