And they have strikers
Ha ha if only it was all that easy aye. God it's posts like this that infuriate me. No wonder our fan base is fractured
Is it better to admit there's a big problem or sit around doing nothing whilst Rome burns around us?
I lived through the 90's, our current predicament is just as bad, if not worse
Who are we going to buy in Jan? What quality player is going to want to hop on a sinking ship? What is any manager, however decent, going to do with an over the hill defence, no creativity in midfield and no striker up top?
Might as well ask him to turn water into wine whilst he's at it FFS
We're too big to go down...especially if Rafael comes in, because we won't be a small club then.

He will have Barkley, Coleman and Bolasie coming back. With those 3 we should be able to go on a run that will see us safe even if we don't sign a striker although there will be plenty of strikers that will come here for the wages we offer.
They won't be CL quality but they will be good enough to see us safe.

Grown men crying about a situation with a quarter of the season gone.
Season is completely recoverable with a decent managerial appointment.

Concerned, yes. Scared, no not yet.
As poor as we've been, there's a lot of mitigating factors that imply things hopefully SHOULD improve.
Even now after 10 games, I don't think there's another team in the league that's had the sort of run of opposition that we've faced within those games. The fact that our ridiculous run of top 6 opponents those opening weeks of the season when a (fairly new) team needed to be gelling really hasn't helped us. Also did nothing for confidence.
Add in the Europa games (starting so early) which has meant that inexperienced side has had relatively little time together on the training ground.
Sadly the Europa League is unlikely to be a concern after Thursday, and I do think we'll start to see results pick up from there, when we're playing just once a week, with more time to work on things in training.
Yes, there's still some glaring holes in the squad, which can't be addressed until January. These holes will mean we certainly won't hit our pre-season aims for 17/18, but I do think there's enough there that once we're down to a game a week, we'll have enough to pull clear of trouble.

You need to open your eyes lad. And it's not grown men crying its called being concerned and passionate about the club we love.
Well it is halloween soon!

There is absolutely no 'even if we don't sign a striker'. That is absolutely essential early Jan.
Of course it is. Perhaps I should have said "as the squad stands today".
