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.

If that's your opinion I cant argue Jozy's case with you.

I'm presuming the last Striker you liked was Phillips. Taking on board how many years that passed prior to him without having a Striker of similar effect, I don't think well be signing the Striker you want.

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

I don't really think you can get a striker in here right now (who might score regularly) for under 15 million. We still don't create a whole lot of chances.

I liked bent to be fair to the lad.
Jones was always a threat when he could be arsed.
When was the last time we signed a pacey striker? Welbeck who was on loan. Campbell was unfortunate with his injury.[DOUBLEPOST=1389462341][/DOUBLEPOST]

NOt Rhodes.. slow as shit.. last person we need. We need PAce up front.

Dunno much about sow.
 
Coeus said:
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.

Fletcher is very good evidence that a poacher might not be very effective under Poyet. His system needs someone who can link play to help the midfield.

Altidore is quicker than Welbeck.

Were not gonna play over the top like we did with Bent so they wont be playing the same roles.

Its not just linking up play .. its spinning and turning and running off his man we need.

He Is.

You quoted Darren Bent so it would be safe to comment on the style of play that was needed to make him the player he was.

Through balls, like the one today? Who pulled the CB out and played the pass (an excellent one) to make the pass?

This is pointless, you have your opinion and refuse to see counter arguments because you have made your mind up. I think they call that an agenda or ignorance or something.

Are you having a laugh. You haven't once made a decent argument to us not needing a striker. Not once.

So get off your horse.
