The absolute priority is a decent striker and Moyes knows this and won't disappoint.
He knows the transformation will take time due to the number of out of contract players that we have and he has already hinted that he will need to keep a few that he probably doesn't want.
I trust him to manage this tricky period as long as he has backing.
The elephant in the room is the number of senior admin staff leaving at the same time which Moyes describes as 'not ideal'

We are the 4th lowest scorers in the league.
Last season we were 2nd lowest and also got 48 points.
Our luck of getting a huge bang for our buck goals wise will run out soon if we do t properly address it.
We’ve lost Doucoure and question marks over Gana Gueye. I really hope he stays. Both really key to us being solid which is what we’re based on considering we are blunt at the top end. We’ve lost Young’s experience too.
Huge task this Summer for Moyes and I am concerned about the amount of players we potentially need to bring in. It will be like a brand new team almost. They’ll need to hit the ground running as well as the rest of the team in our new home which will take some time to settle into.
I guess we have to see what funds are available but I trust Moyes will know what level of players he needs to ensure we’re comfortable.
Not a negative post just a realistic one. The PL is tough and full of well run teams now, most of them with decent amounts of cash/players they can cash in on to fund their next wave of recruitment.
I’m hoping TFG surprise me and really give Moyes a good level of backing. We’ve survived on pennies relative to most clubs these last few years.
Fingers crossed we get what we need to have a decent season.
