Ed1, I don't know if someone already asked you this. But have you seen Victor Munoz played before? Seen a lot of La Liga fans saying that Osasuna is one of the team that play fast attacking football, and he is one of the main main in the side. So suits Iraola playing style I would assume.

You reckoned that we will bring Diomande in and that would be it for the forward positions? And then we will be focusing on other positions.
{Ed001's Note - and?}

I mean that we bring in Munoz as the forward that can cover all three attacking positions, and Diomande as the main Salah replacement. There is talk about how we were still interested in Barcola even after we signed Munoz. I just think that it's either Diomande + Munoz or Barcola + Munoz.
I just can't see us spending a lot of money on 3 attackers while we still need to address the defense, especially RB and midfield/defensive midfielder.
I remembered weeks back you mentioned that we were interested in Kounde somehow. Is that still the case?

We have lost Salah. Looks like we might lose Gakpo and/or Chiesa, and Hugo is out until Christmas (according to L'Equipe), potentially four attackers down on last season. We've brought in Munoz, looks like we might be bringing Diomande in, but that still leaves us 2 players light up top, not forgetting that Isak has been known to pick up the odd injury along the way.
I think Barcola may still be on the cards and perhaps one other - ideally a CF who doesn't know the offside rule, couldn't score in a brothel and causes chaos wherever he plays.

Yeah, that rumour just doesn't seem to be going away, despite denials, WDWIV.
Maybe in memory of our very own Crazy Horse, who I was too young to see play, but really enjoyed on QoS, we should bring Darwin back and christen him our very own Loco Burro?
