I think you will find in the last 2 or 3 seasons Kuyt has scored more than any of them spidey

it isn't just about goals its about the threat their respective teams are with them and how much they create for everyone else in their team. our team just even as much as a threat with the players we have in the wide areas.

Gotta have an end product though

we have the most lethel striker in world football. we need wide pkayers that create chances for the strikers all game long. all well and good we saying 'yay, kuyt has 10 games' when we aren't winning games.
I just want to see pace and directness injected into the wide positions so we become more of an attacking threat. we have argubly the slowest midfield in the league.

Creativness doesn't just come from the flanks, it comes the from center of the pitch aswell
we need a partner to play off Torres like Gerrard did in the 08/09 season, someone like VDV
[/quote]
how about just play gerrard there?
each to their own but I would try to inject pace into the midfield and move gerrard further forwards, if and when we purchase striker who is a better partner for torres then fine move gerrard back into midfied. the bottom line though is I would go out of my way to secure to genuine wide players to provide width, directness and pace into the side. whehter kuyt drops to the bench or is moved on is all the same to me.
