I am in full agreement.
Mateta is a 'worker' but lacks skills whereas Edouard is more skilful and moves better and should be given a chance - but we desperately need a more creative midfield. Kouyate, Luka can't pass creatively. Hughes is better and McArthur works his socks off but none of these can be called a 'midfield general'

I genuinely believe that Christian Eriksen could be the answer.

Clearly you're not joking, but why would Brentford release him? He played a huge role in their success; he'll be expensive; and his defending skills are modest. He must love playing with his Danish teammates and manager.

For personal reasons I would LOVE to see him in our squad – he's my wife's favorite player, by far – but it doesn't seem remotely possible.

It was a 6 month contract with a year's option I think. But truthfully I'd have Eze over a 29 year old Eriksen every day of the week.

how many years have we said " we need to give the strikers the right service " and they will be top strikers , never happens .

Haha, probably because we have never given them the service!

Having said that, both Edouard and Mateta have had one on ones and fluffed their lines this season and to me that is the acid test for a top striker as they should bury those 9/10 times. Edouard for me lack’s confidence as he had no problem burying it in the SPL but looks nervous when he gets an opportunity here.

Benteke moving into the last year of his contract. Almost certainly means that he will start firing about March time to ensure a new contract offer or substantial signing on fee from another club - hopefully the later, but his late flurry of goals might seal European Football, or more likely 14th spot.
