I think if we left midfield as it is and added a proper quality striker or two it would transform the squad.
Well, put it like this Si - I would prefer to 'make do' with Allen, Can, Henderson, Lucas, Milner, Ibe, Lallana, Markovic & Coutinho (without Kovacic) than Balotelli, Borini, Lambert, Ings, Origi & Sturridge (without a top quality striker).
Time after time we appear to get our priorities arse about face. Just once I'd like us to get the biggest need filled first
before we, yet again, pad out the squad. Just once.
Listen; it could be that they have a top striker already lined up and I may be wrong to be concerned or... it could be that 'they', whoever the F**k 'they' are, feel that we don't need a top quality striker; at which point it's time to panic in my opinion, obviously.
I can wait.
