“First and foremost we’re worrying about the players that are at the football club and seeing what we have. Seeing if we have something in the youth team to promote."
In playing style, Best is a ready made replacement for Magennis within the favoured 4-2-3-1 formation.
Robinson knows we've had no youngster to promote or that player would have made his mark already - especially with Magennis running himself into the ground a few weeks ago and needing resting.
Seems to me that the club, if they can avoid it, don't really want to spend any money on Best right now. But Robinson won't want to go into the Christmas matches with no cover for Magennis.
The Club under RD won't want to spend any money full stop. If he's still around in January expect a couple of sales and the replacements to come from within.

That was a strange comment. We don't have a target man centre forward waiting in the academy, itching to step up, indeed that's probably the one position where the academy hasn't really delivered, when you contrast the number of quality defenders we've produced

Maybe he's waiting for the takeover to go through...

Think they're trying to hold out until Jan to see if we can get a better/more long term option in. Best is only a worst case if we have an injury.
If he does sign he might only play a couple times before Jan when we (hopefully) sign someone else and suddenly he's surplus.
