    this season i can now think of at least 4 games which we have drawn, yet could have won – notably against sunderland, newcastle, bolton & yesterdays game against stoke. had we have won those games we would have gained an extra 8 points taking our tally to at least 23 points.

    had we been more prolific & a had a bit more luck in front of goal, this in my opinion would make us ok. therefore, main priority in januray is a prolific goalscorer who is used to playing in the lone striker role. oh! & a replacement for zog when he does the inevitable come the next transfer window.

      Regardless of who we play up front, they are not going to be prolific. Our lone striker has to do too much holding up the ball to allow him to be a poacher.

      Scotland, Moreno & Boselli were all prolific goalscorers before they came here yet they scored 1 premier league goal between them.

        No team has ever won anything based on ifs and buts !! The striker stats are quite frightening though ! It would appear that if you come to Wigan with a decent goal scoring reputation,a season playing under Martinez will firmly put paid to that and you will be left severely lacking in confidence and your transfer value will have taken a steep dip !! :?

        They weren’t prolific scorers in the Premier League before they came to Wigan though, were they?

        I used to score a panful* in the Wigan Ammy League but I wouldn’t get too many in the Prem.

        * OK, I didn’t really, but you get my drift

        And if we’d won all the other games that we’ve drawn or lost then we’d be top by a mile. Ifs and buts and near misses count for nothing I’m afraid.
