I've said from Day 1 we needed a back up striker and with the supposedly imminent N'Gog move we need one more than ever. It's particulary worrying when you think we could easily put Carroll, Suarez and Kuyt in a 4-3-3 formation (I wouldn't though) and have no strikers on the bench.
With the Bellamy transfer looking more bleak by the day who do you reckon we'll sign if any? Rumours over the past month have been from Higuain to Long :S
I would love to see Adam Morgan and Rahim Sterling be given a shot at the big time while our trialist Marco Bueno looks really good. Plus I've always been a fan of Pacheco but he's on loan now.
Really I think a signing is necessary even if it is a youngster.

The fact of the matter is Kenny said he would only sell ngog if he had a replacement ready, should be interesting watching the ticker on deadline day!

How's Pandev doing at Inter Milan?, he'd be a useful back up, even as a loan player, as would Cardozo from Benfica.

how about steve finnan
----------------------------
Finnan has retired and if he hadn't it would make absolutely no sense at all unless we're planning a reunion amongst former reds such as Bellamy and Benayoun etc

I know it's unlikely but I'd like sturridge. Chelsea have drogba, Torres, anelka, kalou and luakuka so they have plenty of forwards to cover him going. I'd take Bellamy as a 2nd option though.

Odemwingie
Affellay
Ruiz
Any one of these 3 would be excellent for us

I wouldn't mind Sturridge could come through Meireles deal but I think he's over valued by Chelsea. If Pandev has gone to Napoli couldn't Cavani or Lavezzi be an option? They are both quality.

Bryan Ruiz is a great shout, could play out wide or through the middle like Kuyt can, however we would be looking around 15 million for him...
