    Just wanted to say that for all the calling for strikers if we haven't got a 20 plus goal man the real key is a midfield that can score as well, along with the odd contributions that we have seen in the past from the likes of S Taylor and Collo, I am actually quite looking forward to next week as we seem to have some bright prospects.

    To be fair only Man Utd, Man City, Arsenal, Chelsea and Aston Villa have 20 goal a season strikers

    This. Furthermore 20 goals in a season by a player has only been achieved 50 times since the premiership started. That is less than three a season. Yet some seem to think that you cannot compete unless you have one of these players in your team and it just isn't true.

    I'd also add that the proven ones are in such short supply we wouldn't be able to afford one anyway. We have to buy somebody we hope can step up to the mark and hope!
