Summer Transfer Window 2017

I think the idea was for Rooney, Sandro and even the likes of Klaassen to get 10-15 goals to fill the gap.

I actually don't think we need an out and out goalscorer (would be nice to get one of course..) but we do need another option up front who offers something different. DCL may offer that one day and will do a job at times this season but we cant really on him every game. I don't think we need a "big" name or a statement signing, just someone who can hold up the ball and get on the end of some crosses.

If we just want someone who can hold the ball up and get on crosses we might well go and find some fat Sunday league player who scores every Sunday then
 

There was a time Giroud was uncertain of staying at Arsenal, that was the time to tempt him with regular 1st team football with WC in 1 year's time. We didn't even make an offer. He's a proven 15 goal/season striker in PL

Swansea made us work for 1.5 month to get Sigu. If we had invested our efforts simultaneously to land suppose Benteke, I am sure by now we'd have him. A 10-15 goals/season striker

We knew Costa's sitiation for a few weeks, if we were serious in him why not make an offer a few weeks prior to panic mode. He's a proven striker too in PL.

Other options could have been Vietto and Timo Werner. The point is you never know who you can get until you try. And we never even made an offer to land any suitable striker. Like Gueye and Kante who were unproven, Walsh could have landed us a gem. So I believe something between him, Koeman and the board is not right. Walsh hasn't or hasn't been allowed to earn his money this summer.

Sigurdsson wanted to join Everton
Giroud did not want to join Everton

Not rocket science that one.
