I can see Macheda, Jones, Maynard, Le Fondre and Guerra all picking up 7-10 goals each. The fact that we have so much quality in this position is a good and bad thing. Good because there will be fierce competition for starting places which means all of them will give 100% (apart from Jones) every game. But also bad as i feel too much squad rotation wont be good for the team.
Personally i'd rather have 2-3 strikers scoring 10-25 goals a season than 4-5 scoring 7-10.
Do you think 2 strikers will cement their place in the team this season or will there be a lot of rotation?

I tend to agree, I don't think there's been anyone as yet that have stood out above the rest.
I'm not confident that Ole can keep a consistent team and will rotate to keep everyone happy.
