The signing of VDV, the injury to Defoe, and the fact that none of our fit strikers can form a partnership together mean that we need to sign a mobile and strong Striker, somebody who leads the line and makes the centre backs know they have been in a real game, somebody that holds the ball up well and creates openings for our rampaging midfielders.
Of course in an ideal world business will pick up again once Defoe is fully fit, and no knee jerk purchase will need to be made. It would also help if our Midfielders would start putting the ball in the net, alleviating some of the pressure on the Strikers.
Elamnder looked tasty today against Man U!
I dont think he is the answer but seen as we are capping our wages at 70k who else is there??
He's looked pretty decent this season, after looking pants when he joined Bolton... Remains to be seen if he's just hit a spot of form or has finally got used to the EPL, but whilst he's not particularly quick he's got the strength and ability to play up front on his own... I have a suspicion he'd end up going as anonymous as Pavlyuchenko if we signed him, though...
I like the look of Kalinic, but think we missed out by not signing K Jones.
