With Sordell gone and Eaves possibly on the way basically we have Beckford, Cavies (for now - I think the only reason he's still here is that DF won't risk not getting a signing in) and the development strikers.
Why? I'm thinking that DF realises he needs money to get Juke but has to sell more before he can spend so is trying to make some wriggle room by having a further clearout with Andrews being the the most high profile name at the moment and possibly some more fringe players.
His plan B is probably to go for a.n.other striker at a lower price - which he can possibly afford now, but is keeping his powder dry.
His plan C is probably to consider selling a player who would be a "nice-to-have" if the money is right to finance the purchase of a striker.
His plan D is to consider playing the "false striker" system a la Brazil.
And finally, his plan F is probably to consider giving one of the young 'uns a shot although he has never been one to throw them in until he's absolutely sure they can hack it.
If any of this is true, where does it leave us?
Waiting to see if we can move some players out whilst setting up deals in principle and depending on whether Dougie can sell at the right price will determine whether we get Juke, a.n.other striker or stick with what we have.
Problem is everyone knows we need to offload players so I imagine the offers are derisory.
