Originally posted by Badger11 Yup that is my point. We pretty need another JPM then they can fight it out as to who should start. I read somewhere that OG likes a big hard working striker so maybe we will. Yep 100%. Part of what I hope Glasner does is build a squad more strategically than it has been done before. At present, when pushing for a goal I'm ok to bring on Edouard on as well as JPM. When when defending a lead, bringing Edouard on for JPM weakens us. Basically just makes sure we are clear on the role of someone like Fofana

Originally posted by Fatherken the last thing we need is another JPM , one is to many Hear, hear! He is a rough diamond and although improving I don't really see him as a 10-15 a season scorer. He is energetic but his weakness for such a tall guy is his heading ability. In my opinion (probably not shared with the majority) Edouard is the more skilful of the two. I'd prefer a Dwight Gayle/Glen Murray poacher who were usually in the right place at the right time. Mateta and Edouard are not the answer - unless we find a midfield playmaker which Eze is not!

Sorry I disagree with your assessment of JP's heading ability, he has recently score with his head, last game he was defending in our box & clearing with his head. He may not be a Gayle/Murray, but, he is improving under our new manager. Let's see. I'm a blind man, i'm a blind man, now my room is cold, When a blind man cries, Lord, he feels it from his soul.
