Striker's

[bitter-no-better]

2 recognised strikers of which 1 is hardly getting a game and the other has a lot of pressure on his young shoulders at the moment.

Why did we not strengthen this area at all this season.

For a premier league club which at the start of the season was aiming for top 4 and a run in Europe this is a disgrace.

Most PL teams have 3 (out and out) strikers and some 4.

Had a striker in Eto'o. He wasn't pulling up any trees like, but we let him go. Then didn't replace him.

Bad management by Martinez, as simple as that.

We did strengthen it mate. But then played him out of position and flogged him for sod all and then the 2nd striker you mention we don't give any game time too until it's too late

Not creating any chances mate; buy another 8 but they can't do anything when the ball goes back to Howard to be launched forward....then to be lost

The biggest regret must be not buying a creative midfielder. The amount of attacks that break down because we don't have a natural link player in there is criminal.

It's not a striker we are screaming out for...it's someone in the AM who can see space and pass a ball in to it. Perhaps Naisy could fulfil this role. As a skilled footballer, he loses me for words

 

[bitter-no-better]

If it was his intention to play eto'o deeper like what naismith does then we should still have bought another striker. One who would have given lukaku some competition, a break in a few games and another option from the bench. He also knew kone was not fit. Add to this the fact lukaku had trained and played in the world cup.

if lukaku gets injured tomorrow we won't be saying that.
