harvey54 Posted November 23, 2019 Report Share Posted November 23, 2019 We need a proven goalscorer Have done for a while. Won't get promoted til we get one. Defence is good. Midfield is good Nobody up front. Simples. Go get Dwight Gayle or similar in January and we might go up. Sit with what we have and we get bubkiss.

harvey54 Posted November 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2019 I am Captain Obvious but if you can see it and I can see it why can't they? How long have we been banging on about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robin_unreliant Posted November 23, 2019 Report Share Posted November 23, 2019 Yet before today we were the 5th highest scorers and had let in more goals than any other side in the top 10. Which suggests it is more complicated than just needing one goal scorer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wendyredredrobin Posted November 23, 2019 Report Share Posted November 23, 2019 I thought Diedhiou had one of his best games for us today. I'm not his biggest fan, but he seemed to have improved his timing when jumping for the ball. His movement when we are going forward still needs some work though.

I've got mixed views on this to be honest. I'm sort of half in agreement. Don't think we can go for a striker who decides his own wage, but feel do feel that we have a big imbalance now at the club. A million young, exciting midfielders, plenty to choose from to play at the back and... well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the midfield really good? we were over run at Cardiff, poor at Barnsley, non existent vs Wigan. We created far fewer clear chances again. Where is our attacking midfield? On today’s performance CO’D is not the answer to this question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 23, 2019 Report Share Posted November 23, 2019 I agree we don't have enough up front. And that is why I believe Weimann is overrated. I do rate him myself as being a good player at this level. But to often read him as being this amazing striker we have, even people saying he is our best player. We should have our solution right there if he was that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 23, 2019 Report Share Posted November 23, 2019 In hindsight one thing we could have done is brought in 2 strikers. It's okay saying if Afobe was to get injured then we have 'solid back up in Fam.' But the reality is once Afobe gets injured, Fam then becomes our main man, and if that is not good enough then we needed one more in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
