Striker - Proven Premier League Goalscorer

Thu Jan 16, 2014 8:38 am

We could still do with a fullback, centre half and a wideman but we desperately need a proven premier league goalscorer to knock in some goals. Ole may have faith in Cornelius and play him more but 15 goals from 21 games is not going to be enough to keep us up.

It will be interesting to see if Ole is still chasing Diouf or whether there is another target lined up. You can't help looking at the other teams chasing strikers and think that they could have done a job for us up front alongside Campbell.

Jelavic has gone to Hull and now they are chasing Long. West Ham are after Lambert having signed up Carlton Cole for another 18 months. Only Mutch from our midfield as really bothered the score sheet hence the desperate need to have a another striker alongside Campbell to share the workload and knock in some goals.

I suppose time will tell. :ayatollah:

Hannover would be stupid to let Diouf go for nothing in the summer when they could get £3m now. I still think Ole will get him. I agree we need a striker a left back and a centre back as well as a winger. Ole hasn't been linked with a CB but the fact that Diouf, Zaha and Fabio have been linked suggests he will definitely cover those positions. :ayatollah:

It doesn't matter who the striker is if he's not getting enough chances and we've let too many goals in at the other end
