Does anyone know who James Beattie replaced at the club if anyone? Since he has joined we seem to have no attacking edge in the final third. I am not solely blaming him as I think Gomis has proven what most of us thought prior to us signing him ( that he is ****), however I find it a bit coincidental that since his arrival at the club we have got worse up front.
We would be right where we are now ,imo , regardless of Beattie being here now or not.He hasn't been here long enough to make an impact or given much responsibility this early in his employment with us. Might not be true , but what I believe.To find problems with our bad run and or striker problems , one has to look to the people who hold the real reins to the team.Does anyone know who James Beattie replaced at the club if anyone?

Why have we gone from a (fairly) attacking style to a pass it sideways, pass it back, pass it sideways again side. The first few games we were the better team and won or drew. Since then it`s been pretty shocking, with no idea at all. Cork who was excellent is now behind Britton in the pecking order. What`s wrong with Tabanou?, never been picked.
I hope that Monk has a good talking to by Huw, telling him in no uncertain terms that we need to get back to what we do best, not the dross that`s being served up now. Unless of course it`s Huw who picks the team and tells them how to play. I`d give Monk until Bournemouth but no longer if he`s still doing the same.
Just out of interest found this on Wiki, means nothing I know.

Laudrup had a load of injuries and Europa as well. Not a fan of Laudrup, just stating facts. And I think he was gone after 1 win in 10.
A quick thought but does Beattie coach have any involvement with the U21's , McBurnie is doing ok atm , I've noticed he's been training with the 1st team squad occasionally .We would be right where we are now ,imo , regardless of Beattie being here now or not.He hasn't been here long enough to make an impact or given much responsibility this early in his employment with us.
