Think people are letting their feelings about lack of signings now cloud their judgement of this signing.
If this guy is as good as he seems, then this could be a fantastic shrewd purchase that makes total sense. As a standalone signing this is excellent and exactly the kind of long term planning that the club should be doing.
The fact we haven't sorted cover for our forwards is a separate issue - and should be questioned as its hard to see saka and co managing to keep it up for the whole season without a rest. It does feel like they might be writing off a promotion push this year- which given our league position would be a bit of a disappointment.
