Will we sign a striker today?

I think it's unlikely. To be fair it is difficult to sign a proven striker who will fit into your system at a realistic price. We saw with Nicky Ajose how things can go wrong. It would seem that the club 'leadership' think that the January window might be the time to act if it looks as if we are challenging for promotion, although it is difficult to get good value in that window when there is a lot of panic buying.

My friend Annie formed a negative view of football after leading a football research centre. Too much dressing up, going to Premier League matches and cosying up to movers and shakers. So she is taking me out for the day to get away from the nonsense.

Our sister site takes a look at big money signings and suggests that they are rational, at least in the sense that Kim Jong-in is rational: Transfer window
