Not at all Syd. Just discussing the facts. We are currently woefully under strength when it comes to putting the ball in the back of the net. Having only one recognised striker, proven that is at the top level, is not good enough for a team that has top 10 ambitions again. If Gyan got a knock the day after the window closed and no other striker had been brought in, would you still be so critical of my opinions? I have no doubts Bruce wont go into the new season without another attacking option and as I have said in another post, if that turns out to be Adam Johnson (assuming he is up for loan that is) then all hail the Bruce. AJ can play as a 2nd striker or wide left / right and would be a huge 'marquee signing' we all crave. If he doest, we are simply gambling again. I think thats a legitimate argument dont you?
Colbeck is no more a winger than I am. He would only end up frustrated and pissed off playing there. His whole game is made up of controlling the ball in the centre of the action. Surely Steed is better off there if no other options are available.
