Rafa seems to be extremely keen to ship off our strikers left, right and centre. Le Tallec is already on loan in Sunderland, Aberdeen think they can get Sinama-Pongolle on loan, Baros is gone, and Cisse is being linked with Marseille. What would that leave us with? A misfiring Morientes and an injured bean pole. Having said that I fully expect Owen and/or Kuijt to be signed if Pongolle and Cisse also go.
Meanwhile we still haven't got an RW or a CB, the positions Rafa said he'd be covering at the start of the season. Worrying times.
