I agree. Ideally we get both but priority has to be a decent centre back
Jerome is good enough to lead the line and we are only going to play one up front most games.
You just look around at all the teams around us and they are spending big and signing players. Palace, Stoke, West Ham, West Brom all spending big and signing players who previously might have only gone to top 8 sides. It seems the likes of Southampton are now "out of our league." It feels like the middle third of the premier league has really upped its game and upped the spending and to be honest its hard to pick out three poor teams you think we will definitely finish above at this moment in time.
I appreciate we have to live within our means and I don't think we are doomed but surely we have to take a bit of a calculated gamble here given the rewards on offer if we stay up this season.
