Re: Striker, Left Back, Defensive Midfielder

Isn’t Ramsey going to miss almost the entirety of next season (assumption, if it’s an ACL)? Certainly up to Christmas at minimum I’d think? I really hope we keep Brownhill for a year - Cullen, Berge, Brownhill wins us promotion for sure I think. The vital signing is a striker though. We simply must ...

Great player, vital to promotion and most of us said it was the first of the very many mistakes we made last summer in not signing him.

In terms of ALK’s end game, I don’t think anyone knows but I’m just hazarding a guess that they’re banking on a) retaining premier league status (which they may now realise isn’t as easy as Dyche made it appear), b) benefiting from the growing revenues in that league, c) appreciating sports team va...
