Given that we're not creating the chances, the service does not suit the forward and the ones we do create are low quality, all unlike last season, I have my doubts. No analytic bod out there would be confident in us doing so

Now hindsight is a wonderful thing and I for one wish we had never sold this proven goal scorer and it would not surprise me if he scores more goals this season on his own than our strikers combined,(Benteke,Wickham,Sorloth and Ayew)purchased for in excess of well over £50m. Good business eh,Steve????? ... don't forget we had Bumford at the time as well. It was thought we had sufficient proven quality up front and that Glenn would not get a look in. Hindsight is a wonderful thing but we backed the wrong horses ... simple as that. Edited by Henry of Peckham (06 Oct 2018 7.13am) Denial is not just a river in Egypt

I seem to recall that at the time most people on the forum were pleased to see us sign Wickham thinking him an excellent replacement for Murray who we all thought would never be the same player after his serious injury but as you say none of us had the benefit of hindsight

I think us fans are all missing the point, it does not matter who we have up front if you don’t play to there strengths or provide them service they won’t score goals. You all harp on about Benteke but look how he performed under fat Sam I wonder why as he plays to a target mans strength. You don’t become a bad player over night and prior to last season & so far this season Benteke has been scoring goals. Sørloth I agree is not good enough and Ayew just looks like another Fraser Campbell. Since Benteke has been out we have been so woeful going forward at least with Benteke he wins headers holds up the ball and creates space for Zaha etc. It’s the same at Chelsea they all say Morata is not good enough but he has done it everywhere else, Shevchenko another on sometimes it is down to the team and the system you play. Can you seriously see Murray scoring for palace like he is for Brighton no chance as we don’t play to his strengths everything Brighton does goes through Murray everything we do it goes through Zaha. Maybe we should get of there backs and support

I disagree. I think Blunteke is bad at holding the ball up. His control on the ground is not good and very rarely does the ball stick to him so that he can bring others into play Originally posted by dazza I think us fans are all missing the point, it does not matter who we have up front if you don’t play to there strengths or provide them service they won’t score goals.
