Bony and benteke ships have sailed I'm afraid. They'd be off to a top 6 club of they were to leave. We need to pluck an unknown out from nowhere or polish up a rough diamond.
Neither of which we have a good record of doing.
I agree, we face a really difficult situation. The team is crying out for a bit of quality in a couple of key positions and just adding more of what we already have just means more money wasted on fees and wages. I just wonder how good Congerton's knowledge of European football is..........is it good enough for him to identify these key players...even if they are already fairly high profile and wouldn't come cheap, or is he still dependant on scouts.
Touching wood here but we do look to be a reasonably solid team with a fair bit of depth up front and in midfield and you'd like to believe that just two players of the right quality could make a vast difference.
