Pilks has intelligent movement and I feel that he's actually made more of a contribution up front than in midfield this season. Lawrence is a young man who has undoubted potential but has not shown any sign that he could be prolific.
What worries me is that we seem to have wasted another transfer window without getting in the striker that we need.
Zohore must be awful in training if Slade puts Macheda on the field ahead of him yesterday.
I honestly don't think Slade had any real say in the signing of Immers and Zohore. If he really wanted those players then surely they would be given more of a chance than they have to date.

If we are then what exactly is the plan? Surely the plan wasn't to sell the only player at the club that looks anywhere near capable of scoring regularly and instead playing two attacking midfielders up front. I like both Pilkington and Lawrence but surely if you have any aspirations about going up you have to have an actual centre forward on the pitch.

I don't understand why Zohore wasn't played yesterday he was supposed to be Mason's replacement and we have got Saadi coming back and either those two should replace Pilks.

For the second game in a row when Macheda was brought on I looked around to see people with confused looks on thier faces. What has he done to deserve being on the pitch? Why buy Zohore and not use him in a situation like we found ourselves in on Saturday? It's exasperating.
