I said we wouldn't sign another striker. I agree we need defensive cover. Neither Pearce or Deji are good enough if our current crop get long term injured.

Portsmouth have signed free-agent forward Jordy Hiwula on a short-term deal until 20 January.
The 26-year-old spent the past two seasons with Coventry, playing 61 games, before leaving in the summer.
He could make his debut for Pompey against Sunderland on Saturday.

Gap in the squad at the mo is cover right side defender - Is Matthews still unattached? Might mean him swallowing a little humble pie but if we have a vacancy and he ain't got another job - 2bags a week, even if it's short term, is a whole lot better than trying to train in the park and twiddling one's thumbs til January at least.1 -

You don’t believe Pearce is good enough when fit if Famewo for example was to be injured?
Started and captained us 25 times in the league when we won promotion, conceding 27 isn't bad at all, and we won 14 of them.
Famewo, being the left sided centre back, has had an excellent start, but Pearce is most definitely good enough for this level.
I think it would also be unfair to say Oshilaja isn’t either, how many games has he played for us at this level in his best position with a proper partner and in a proper back 4, with a proper team in front of him? Absolutely none.20 -

LB:ain't gonna be a striker, we're not looking there"
When Bonne left for a couple of Million, Lee said we will bring in two strikers ?
Smyth is a forward/winger but not convinced he will a goal scorer to reach double figures.
What's changed his mind after the Ronnie Schwartz deal collapsed ?
Bowyer felt we needed a striker then.6 -
Not sure if it’s him we’re after but that lad is electric, he’d terrorise this league.If there’s room in the cap then just do it, we can patch up an injured defence with u23’s - just put Pratley and Watson in front of them.0

We have been speaking to him for over a week, so my guess is we do need a striker32

He said we will bring in 2 and we brought in 2
Bogle and Smyth
It doesn't matter who is convinced or not by Smyth yet, you are asking what has changed since Bowyer said we would bring in 2 but he bought 2 in.

Bright Enobakhare
10 in 68 career total, best return being 6 in 18 for Coventry in League 1 in the 18/19 season.
Left Wolves via mutual consent and then again AEK Athens after 4 months.
RedHenry says we're looking at him, Bowyer thinks otherwise.
Fight?

Can't imagine there's a better 'back up' CB pairing than Pearce and Deji in this League.3

I did forget about the off-side man Bogle, and we can have a debate about the versatility of Smyth who could do really well with assists but I'm convinced there is a number 9 that Lee is still looking for as he knows Chuks can't play 95 minutes every game.
@Redhenry has a good record overall about players, and was right several players were waiting to sign it's just that there was the delay with the embargo to be lifted.
In RH we trust.
Q. Do we know if the striker in Greece is British ?

Has RH named Bright Enobakhare ?
If it's the talented Nigerian then if we can't match his wages (we can't) then I guess we have to tell him to come on our journey where he will earn big money or we will put in a clause which means he can use Cafc as a stepping stone back to the big time.
We have to sell Cafc to players now we are under new management. Ambition has to show in words and action despite the wages cap.1 -
Seems like he has the sort of record that COULD turn into a prolific one with the right club.0

He joined Coventry on loan in January in the 18/19 season and won their young player of the year award after playing only 18 games. Coventry have a decent crop of young players so it was quite an achievement at the time.
From the sounds of it, he struggles a bit with attitude issues but that’s the kind of player Bowyer can work miracles with.
I like him a lot at this level but would be concerned that adding him would make us slightly too heavy with a number of attacking options. I suspect a right footed centre back is much more likely.

Callum, I got it down to two and the other lad, Chuba Akpom (ex Arsenal) signed for Middlesbrough and has scored 2 in 4 games.
We need Steve Gallen or Thomas Sandgaard to sell the story to Enobakhare; if it's him ?
He could have a Bright future at the new Charlton.0 -
