Knobbed again.Haven’t seen game so can’t comment on performance but this ongoing striker issue worrying me now.Fortunes stats don’t read well,Waghorn is busy but if he gets 10 i’ll be surprised and my initial impression of Riera wasn’t favourable.He doesn’t look ready for the hurly burly of this league.I know our midfield has looked static but the forwards give very little to aim for.Istill think a Nahki Wells type forward would give us some desperately needed pace……but let’s hope this is our seasonal blip out of the way.
I hope he has a plan in place for our next game! Could be some undue pressure on the players come the Blackpool game which would be a bad game to lose !
Surely it’s financially viable to take a chance on a forward from the lower leagues and the fact that they will be chomping at the bit to prove themselves.The likes of Billy Sharp who went to Leeds for 500,000 Wells went for 1 mill. These Riera Bosselli buys don’t do it for me. Austin proved himself so did Vokes,Ings at this level.Surely taking a chance on Garner at Preston would be worth it as it’s not about trying to find the next Thierry Henry it’s about scoring in this league .
Difference is Garner has a strike partner at Nobs and decent service. I think Nobs also play a pressing, attacking game.
OOOH and the cost. Nobs wouldn’t let him go for nowt.I agree but I’m just using him as an example.I’m not saying that Riera isn’t a decent player I just think this league needs a street wise forward who knows the score.No one knows exactly what the situation is with Holt and I’d be the 1st to admit that I thought he was a great signing at the time and agree that he was a let down but if we can’t off load him before the window shuts then wouldn’t it be a managers role to sit down with him and try to motivate him and maybe get a bit of a return on the investment.This is one tough league and I was under no illusions about our task so hopefully we can address this issue and get up and running.Just for the record my ea/way tip to go up was and still is Blacburn,young side last season.Kept Rhodes and signed a cracker in Gestedes.
2 games in and having narrowly lost at a ground we have never done very well at people are talking about a long,hard season.
the championship is extremely tough and everybody wants to scalp us because of our long stay in the premier league so every season in here is going to be long and hard regardless.
let’s start panicking if we lose next Saturday but I full expect our first three points next week
