Doesn't Matter Who We Get Up Front If We Carry On With This Poor Midfield, Defenders Mentality To Lump It In The Air

, 11 Men Back Defending Corners , No Midfielders 10 Yards Close Of The Striker To Give Support.

 

We Play For Luck Imo, Hoping K.Davies Wins The Flick Ons And It Hopefully Drops To A Bolton Player, Especially When There Is No Creativity In The Middle Of The Park, If Megson Plays M.Davies And Lee Chung Yong In The Same Team Our Football Will Improve But Playing 3 Same Types In The Same Midfield Is Uneeded And Very Negative.

 

What Im Trying To Say Is, If We Get A Striker With Pace[ We don't Need Anymore Turtles] Then They Need There Ball To Feet More, Or Skilled Through Balls Not Hit And Hope Boring Lofts.

 

Elmander Doesn't Get The Service He Needs, Megson Won't Play 3 Strikers K.Davies .. Elmander .. ? . Most Of The Time K.Davies Is Stuck On The Right Wing For Some Reason. If We Swap Elmander For Someone Else , I Can't See Us Not Changing Style , So The Way We Play Will Probly Not Get The Service. Yes Anelka Scored 13 Goals In A Shocking Team But He's Anelka , We're Being Linked With Untested Or Mediorce Run Of The Mill Players .

 

Im Not Trying To Say Because We Play A Certain Way , We Shouldn't Bother Signing A Striker , It's Just I Don't Think We Would Be Able To Get The Best Out Of Them, Maybe Megson Just Want's A Sub Role Striker , Afterall Elmander Did Cost 8 Million , I seriously Don't See Him Being Dropped.

 

We Play 4-4-2 Now And Then,We Sometimes Create Quite A few Chances In A Game, But Unless We Can Get A Real Deal Striker, Any Average Player Imo Will Not Make Any Noticable Difference.

 

Nugent Is A Decent player , But We Have Been Linked With Him For A Few Years And I Don't Think He Would Be Any Better Than He Was At Pompey In His Limited Playing Time. Beckford's Record Speaks For It Self And Surely We Must Have At Least A Few Million , It Could Be A Good Deal But Then Again Maybe not, He's Untested And Probly Would Not Get That Much Playing Time.

I got so bored reading this that I started to count the number of CAPITAL letters you had used. :blink:

Ditto but I was checking out the words that didn't start with capitals.

How do you explain the caps? Have you got some sort of retarded keyword that does it for you?

sorry, but make your mind up. its either one or the other. the chances of finding a player than is quick with the ball are very slim.

 

either play to feet and let the ball do the work, or play into space and allows stikers to run onto it..

Beckford scores again today , he has defo got to be worth a punt .I no he s playing in lower league but at least he knows were there net is and think he could have a made a diffrence today at hull . We had enough chances

is he worth gambling 7m though?

general rule of thumb

 

if we can attract a striker, theres going to be a big risk they won't cut it

 

only 2 sam found were anelka and ricketts and to an extent davies

 

we've already chanced 8 million

 

another 7 on beckford

 

i think not

Where's ?7m come from is that not quoted figure for Achilles Tendon? No way Beckford will be ?7m in last year of his contract I suspect we'd have to go over the odds to maybe ?3.5m but not ?7m?

sorry, i was a guestimate on my part as leeds have said they want more than the 6m they received for Fabian Delph.

Fair enough- they are pissing in the wind!

 

i think you'll find plenty sellers do that

 

just maybe it changes at weekend

Leeds fan was just telling me he missed a few glorious chances as well as scoring on Saturday.

 

and?

 

Anelka missed plenty, as do most strikers but if he could match his strike rate as it is know i won't care so much how many he misses

Posted

So, the difference between him and our strike force is:

 

that he actually put one away.

Posted

What I meant is that maybe if Elmander had 4 such opportunities he'd have put one away too. Or 2, or 3.

 

Or Beckford playing for us on Saturday may have got one chance and missed it.

 

A seemingly prolific striker bought in may not be the panacea some people are expecting.
