Looking forward to seeing pitman getting the Goals next season,he looks lethal around the box,stead will also get his fair share,Maynard will be missed but we have two excellent front men in stead and pitman.
If Nicky does go I think Pitman is the perfect replacement,his first season stats prove it and he was after all our top goal scorer.. Competition Apps (as sub) Goals League 21 (18) 13 FA Cup 1 (0) 0 He can only get better...
I rate Pitters as our 3rd striker, whilst not too impressed with NM, though he did well for a while, he must remain our no 1 ahead of Steady , Clarkie is 4th choice, but as has been bandied about other places could sit deeper may even transform into a mid fielder!!
To be honest I think Pitman is our most natural striker. Don't get me wrong, Nicky is a top player but i'm more impressed with Pitman's first season than I was with Nicky's, he doesn't score 30 yard goals but I would back him to score one on one almost every time. Definately expect Pitman to hit 20 next year at least. Ideally we'd have Nicky, Pitman and Stead as our main three. Clarkson and (possibly) Taylor there to cover injuries too. Now we just need a defence..
