Of the names mentioned on social media in the last 24 hours, or one or two I’d like us to attempt to sign, they’re all a significant upgrade on Daryl ******** Dike!
I don’t rate DD so I’d like us to move on………
Wood - 31, still loads to offer and available on loan. Way ahead of DD!
Kaba - not claiming to know much about him but his record is decent
Moore - I’d like him, must be on decent wedge though. He’d be a significant upgrade!
J-Rod - wouldn’t be against it, but injuries a concern
Can’t see us affording Wood unfortunately so Moore would be my preference out that lot!

I think the Rodrigues ship has sailed and wouldn't want us going back there. Too old and fragile for what we need.

Most of those are on Premier League wages, aging and not likely to improve. The type of signings that have got us in
the mess we are in, we ought to be looking at young players with potential to improve

Don't know much if anything about Kaba.
I reckon Wood will get another Prem loan, personally.
I think JRod is done now.
Moore would be a cracking signing on either a 2 year deal for free or on a loan.

Kaba 28
Moore 30
Wood 31
Nothing wrong with those ages! Within 2 years we want to be out this division… 2 year contracts… plus 1 in favour of club or player!
Division 1?
I'd rather us bring in a youngster from one of the top Prem clubs.

Whether you rate DD or not is irrelevant, he won't be fit for for a while and after so long out with injuries it's hard to imagine he'll be anywhere near the same player Barnsley had.
We need another main striker, and of those I think Moore is the most likely option and I'd be very, very happy with that.

Ronnie's got the same four I'd heard so what would your pecking order be?
I'd say
Wood
Kaba
Moore
Jay Rod
Arguably given we have one striker currently they would all improve us
Cuzer
