If we get the new striker we want that would leave: that guy
Mmaee
Gallagher
Tezgel
Koumas
That's 5 all fighting for one spot with new guy being a shoe in for majority of games
Appreciate Koumas would play wide too
Ennis could definitely go if we get the one new striker in
If Mmaee goes as well then we'd need another striker

Unless we switched to 2 up top which seems highly unlikely

Gallagher has been mainly playing as a wide striker, Tezgel may yet become a central striker but doesn't have the physical presence as yet and for my money a loan would be better for his development , Koumas is a wide player and we have no idea about the new striker as yet although it is likely to be a central striker. Not sure its a good idea letting Ennis go until we have another central striker to challenge Mmaee for the role which seems to be the plan.

Not sure I'd let Ennis go out unless we sign two forwards. I think he's extremely limited but fine for a 4th choice who'll get hardly any minutes hopefully.

The only thing Ennis is fine for is running the water bottles onto the pitch during a drinks break

[dirtygary69]

I thought after his sub showing against Coventry it was probably his best contribution in a Stoke shirt. That isn’t saying much but he’s gone from that, to pretty much sold already. Was he injured for last week?

That's exactly what he'd be doing for all but the odd minute here or there. Exactly what you need, someone to sit on the bench and be used in emergency who's development you're not too fussed about. 4th choice is certainly not a role for a highly regarded young player.

[Gary Hackett]

Who on earth would take on his wages to get him out permanently ?

Loan would be the only option .

Doubt he's on that much Gaz

[stokefanone]

Ennis is not the issue with our forward line. We need another striker who can be first choice with a decent goal scoring history at this level.
Ennis is an ok squad member.
New striker, mmaee, gallyger, Ennis, Tezgel.

Have to say that has to be the worse pool of strikers in the championship. How we got by or are going to get by is frightening. Need two through the door minimum

[rickyfullerbeer]

At the start of last season, Angela Smith suggested to AN in a pre-match interview that we had the best pool of forwards in the division.

If there is a genuine offer surely we let him go regardless?

It'd be nice to get one in first but even if that doesn't materialise, you'd have to think we'd be OK with Gallagher, Mmaee, Tezgel and Koumas.

Unless Gallagher is out for longer than they've made out

Must’ve been to Barnsley and decided he’d rather play elsewhere

[cheekymatt71]

Getting Ennis out would be a very good move, still need to get rid of a couple more midfielders as well hopefully.

I’d say it depends on whether we sign anyone

I agree. He did well when he came on. Held the ball up very well. I was impressed.

[Gary Hackett]

Just let him go, we don't need him.

[Timmy]

He's like the kid that won a raffle to be a professional footballer

A week behind Stevens, who was said to be 'in contention' for Plymouth but likely to be given the break too as a proper recovery period.

[Staffsoatcake]

If we pay them,there must be somebody willing to take him.

Being very cruel to the lad!
Very limited but lots of energy, will run around and hassle the centre backs.
Ok to keep on the bench if we are seeing a game out I think, especially as we have 9 on the bench.

Paula Radcliffe can run a lot, doesn't mean I want her as a striker for us 🤷🏻

[Sven]

Blackburn must be pissin themselves silly, off loading there worst 2 strikers to us, one who's shit and one who is never fit 🙈

[GeneralFaye]

I know you're lurking scfcarchie, dm me and I'll arrange a meeting by Sir Stan 👍🏻

[werrington]

Threads embarrassing

Grow up ffs

[bayernoatcake]

Awful player.

Hopefully we sell him.

Tbh even with what we have now and no one else coming in it would be daft not to get rid if we have an offer.

The thing is with everybody fit would we have space for him on the bench to perform that very limited role?
