    So, with talks of Ngog close to leaving to Bolton we're looking in more need of a backup striker, but how badly do we need one?

    We will have 3 experienced strikers to choose from: Suarez, Carroll and Kuyt. Kuyt has been "converted" into a right winger so is more likely to be played on the right anyway leaving us with 2 true strikers.

    So, if Suarez or Carroll gets injured we will need another striker, do we buy another one before the window is out, or do we utilise Morgan from the Academy as he looks more likely to make the step up?

    I'd be happy to see Morgan get game time but I'm not sure he'd cope playing long term if Carroll or Suarez got a bad injury.

    Personally I'd rather we waited until January and just utilise Ngog or Morgan as 4th choice until then. Think we need to bed in the players we've already bought in first.

    Then again, Poulson scored as many goals as Torres did during pre season.

    With a 100% conversion rate. 1 shot, 1 goal. Maybe him for 4th striker then?

    Hey! leave the mighty Igor out of this. Even using Poulsen's name in the same post (nay in the same thread) as the Mighty Igor is an insult

    We've got too many of those around the place. And if they're not made of glass, they're made of ****!

    So Degen is essentially a turd covered in shards of glass? Or would it be a turd in a glass bottle?
