    Talking about tactics, he believes most effective way to score goals is effective crossing of the ball and centre forwards that can head it like Andy Carroll. Interesting as we can neither cross a ball or have anyone that can head the thing either

    Think we have wingers that can cross balls, what we don't seem to have is a forward (specifically a No. 9) who can head them in.

    Dallas puts in some nice ones, guess it depends on tactics and who is on the end, Wood had a couple of easy chances yesterday.

    We need someone alongside Cooper at the back, secure Cooks contract, someone the opposite side of Dallas and two new strikers, Wood won't be leaving so allow him and two others to battle it out.

    We might have a chance of one of those things happening but not all 5

    Depends on what the ambitions are. If it's auto contention we'll need all five and more. If it's just to get close to the play off lottery a bit of tinkering will do

    I think bridging the 20 point gap between yourselves and the playoffs will take more than a bit of tinkering you old tinker <ok>

    We did have a certain Matt Smith, he wasn't mobile but he could sure head the ball...<ok>

    No use if weve no one a of lifting the ball off the ground on to his head. Did you see the standard of West Hams crosses for Andy Carroll on Saturday? Woops, I forgot <doh>
