If we could sign a decent striker we'd be flying.

I think this should be priority for us now.

Bruce said it at the start of his interview.. your only as good as your strikers and to some degree he is right.

We need one.

Bruce isn't our manager any more - get with it, will you :D

TBF, every team in the bottom half, would be saying the same thing.

Well, yes he is.

As every become more acquainted with each other and style of play he will suit it perfectly. He can play with his back towards goal and link play very well.

Or we could go for a finisher. Fletcher is a very good one who provides absolutely nothing In this style, especially when out of form.
 
Scocco, the more I hear about him, the more I want him. The reporter on the Wise Men Say podcast really rated him.
 
Agree, Fletcher and Altidore have been off the pace but we've done ok recently because of sterling efforts from the like of Johnson and Ki, with a striker in to suit our style of play we'd be flying out of the relegation zone.

A striker who isn't scoring. You have a funny definition of 'fine'.

Not only isn't he scoring he doesn't look like he is going to. His movement is very poor for a striker.

We were 3 on 2 at one point and his movement at the time was dire. He did do well for the pen and the 1-2 with ki. Surely he should be capable of passing a ball though.
