Quite obviously for years now we’ve not had a decent goal scorer, a good old fashioned striker who can actually put the ball in the net on a regular basis. Ala Glen Murray, Andy Johnson, Ian Wright, Dougie Freedman or Clinton Morrison type

Made in Bromley

Yep a striker. Someone who has the happy habit of being in the right place at the right time and is cool headed enough to hit the target regularly. Trouble is they seem to come along once a decade.

I have now sufficient funds to last me the rest of my life. Provided I don't buy anything.

I shudder when Milivojevic is introduced into the fray.
Slow,ponderous, gives away a succession of free kicks.

I would say we only have one strong first teamer in our middle 3 and that’s Dacoure. Schlup isn’t a middle 3 player plus I wouldn’t have him starting. Great squad player to have though. And Eze isn’t good enough to play in a midfield middle 3 as well. Should be a starter but would be better either wide or as a No 10 behind a front man in my opinion. Midfield is definitely our weak spot now that Macca isn’t readily available and Gallagher no longer with us.

Midfield, lots of numbers but lacking in real quality in there.

Gilberto Silva, Didier Deschamps. Vieira played with both, and both were fundamental to the efficient functioning of their respective sides. Desailly, Emerson, Tommasi are others that spring to mind.
