It's worth a shot. It can't hurtSo would employing someone who's been released on a free from Valencia improve our quality?
Chelsea = Costa, Drogba, Remy
Citeh = Aguero, Dzeko, Jovetic
Woolwich = Giroud, Sanogo, Welbeck
Everton = Lukaku, Etoo, Naismith
It's only Liverpool who have more and I think that's due to Borini being difficult to offload on 90 grand a week. Think three options for one position is plenty.
Chelsea have Andre Schurle
Scum have options of Walnut, Sanchez, Podolski, Joel Campbell. And Gnabry.
Everton have Mirallas and Aruna Kone..
Scum could also have Giroud, Welbeck and sanogo out injured and not be affected.
If we have one injury in our three strikers we are in big trouble,.
We'll see come the end of the season when we're crying because we fell short again..
I'm not expecting CL football
If you're expecting that then you definitely need therapy mate
I'd like to see us at least try for it.. It's as if we've accepted that were not good enough anymore, despite finishing 4th twice recently..
2 seasons ago we were way better than Liverpool and very close to Woolwich..
They have both kicked on whilst we are going backwards.
Our 3 striker strike force will be our downfall at the end of the season. Even Everton have more.
As the other thread points out we have 7 games in 23 days.. An injury to one of our front men and we are in trouble this early.. With Ade on ACON duty, if Bobby gets injured, then we will be left with Kane, and as much potential he may or may not have, that is just plain stupid.
One good frontman could have made all the difference, and put an end to the Sunday defeats after a Thursday Europa game.
I'll back him the same as I have done every manager since Keith Burkinshaw, including Gross,
But that doesn't stop me having ambitions for my club or doesn't mean I'm happy when I THINK the wrong decisions have been made.
I really hate to use them cunts as an example but Woolwich have had CL football for 17 straight seasons or however many it is now, and they also don't let European football affect their prem games after a European match.. That's because they have a better balanced squad, you don't see them with two decentish strikers and one apprentice... they always have good cover in ALL positions, we have good cover in most positions but up top we are very light.
And before anyone says, go off and support them then.. No fuck off I won't..
Which one, him signing for us or him as "the one who eats cocks"?What a stupid rumour.
