What striker would you sign?

[preposterousvelios]

Might be a stretch but I'd be sounding out, Gabriel Jesus because he's not going to want to be behind Gyokores in a WC year.

Troy Parrott at Alkmaar a potential 2nd choice.

Solid previous season,Started the season well at,lad knows where the onion bag is.

Good player that would suit this side but injury record would be a concern

His injury record is cause for concern...but I'd gamble on him.

We possibly do need another body up top but I would at least like us too try and see in the next 3-4 games how the strikers we have get on if we actually try and play in front of them a bit more and stop hoofing balls up to them. Grealish and N'Diaye need to pass more and stop trying to take multiple players on all the time and running into blind alleys thus giving the ball away easily. A little work on shape and in game instructions could (not saying it 100% does btw) save us a lot of money. The flip side of that is its Moyes and he doesn't like being told he is wrong and he is very stubborn and is unlikely to change much as its just not in his nature.

If we're looking for something different to what we have i would look at Can Uzun. Playing as an attacking mid atm but will end up a striker imo and looks like the real deal.

Him as a false 9 with Ndiaye and Dibling either side and Grealish behind him would be very easy on the eye.

Though with that said i don't think any new striker would make any difference if we don't sort out fullback positions.

Realistically who would you sign? IMO it needs to be a proven striker from the prem or even in one on the championship. There's seems to be a lack of them about these days or they're over priced but surely there's 1 or 2 we could try and get?

Bob Latchford. He would still be better than the two we have.

 

[Jacko93]

NDiaye needs to be upfront. Dibbles or Charly on the right. The way we play, short sharp passing and when we do cross it's not early to the big CF it's usually whipped from the by line after numbers have dropped back.

Let NDiaye play ST floating in any area he feels like he can make an impact.

What's the point in having great wingers if your main focus of attack will get bullied off Everton ball played centrally that isnt direct to his feet. Play him centrally, sure, but not as the main CF. As a 2 maybe. Somebody win it and get the ball to him, or to break the lines if he holds and creates space.

Sarcasm gone wrong here me thinks

tbh, the best and maybe only way to play sarcasm is to take it literally, aka deliberately obtuse. So fairplay and hats off to @Toffeelover he's knocking it out of the park...or he really is that d
