    Watched on TV, and our defence were woeful. It was that fact that got us beat - not just the lack of a striker. Luke was not at his best yesterday (have a look at the highlights) and neither was Lyndon (defensively).
    I agree with Pritch being given a rest, and that Jack could go down the middle. I would like to see Matete start most games, especially against teams like Swansea who pressed and more often than not won the second ball. Jay provides bags of energy.
    I also would like to see Cirkin return

    I'm not having that as a valid reason for not signing a 3rd (and 4th) striker. How come all the other teams in the league manage to have 3, 4 or even 5 strikers in some cases?

    It should have been our priority in pre-season and is has to be the priority again for the January window. Sure we looked at Broadhead and Parrot but there must have been other realistic targets we could have gone for...madness if not.
