I think we are going to become very reliant on him as the season wears on. I just don't see Jackson/JJ in that role personally. I'd be worried if Ladapo picked up an injury. |  | |  |

That goes for the rest of the team too. We have a recruitment team in place and hopefully a strategy to go with it. I hope if we do make any acquisitions, they are planned and there is none of the shambolic nonsense we had under Lambert with loanees and a bloated, unbalanced squad. Edit: I’m sure there won’t be. It’s a different club [Post edited 2 Oct 2022 17:55]

We wanted Hirst/Keane almost right up until the deadline. Ahadme was a cheap punt. Our powder is pretty dry if the right person becomes available in Jan I'd say. And it's an easier conversation to have with a player if you are sitting in the top 2 (hopefully) as well. |  | |  |

We’re doing ok without the striker everyone seems to want, so I don’t see why we should. If Ladapo can get in a grove he could be just fine. [Post edited 2 Oct 2022 17:56]

A closet rival would good. You can never have too much storage space. |  |

Who else thinks we are going to go large on a striker in January? (n/t) on 19:06 - Oct 2 with 2950 views | Vaughan8 | We've seen what happens when John Jules and Jackson are up top the last 2 games. Definitely not as effective as Ladapo. I thought JJ was not great yesterday. Did OK first half but second half when we couldn't get hold of the ball for a bit, he seemed a bit pathetic and weak. Ladapo has had. His critics but the games I've seen he's been the best we've got upfront. Luckily we have others to score too so we aren't overly reliant. |  | |  |

I think either Ahadme makes an impact in next 3 months, in which case we're well set, or more likely we loan him out as you say and get a more established striker in to strengthen us. |  |

I think JJ has had his two best games from the striker position. Jackson recently had a good game from that position too. JJ is deceptively strong and has excellent control. So you can play it into his feet at pace and expect him to do something with it quickly (which isn't Ladapo's strongest point). But he's on a par with me when it comes to heading. He seemingly has very little interest in genuinely competing for it. Which means if he is up top we need to play in a different way to how we do when Ladapo is up front. Jackson also pulls defenses around in a different way, more stretching them with his pace. Again, both are capable of doing a job from that position, we just have to play to their strengths. JJ would become my default 9 out of the two. |  |

I don't think we'll be too fussed about wages, how else do you think we managed to attract Walton, Chaplin, Morsy, Edmundson, Davis etc. |  |
