How badly we need another striker

This time of year we're always linked with a young foreign striker doing well in a midtable side. Last year Zaki, the year before that lad at Birmingham who went to Italy whose name escapes me.
Same shit different year.

it might be wiser to just sign wigan's south american scouts. they couldn't do any worse than lucas, insua & paletta.

They did manage to find us Leto though.

Rodallega is better than both of those, Oncey. I'd be interested depending on the price.
[/quote]I liked the other lad too. He was dead quick.
But yeah Rodallega would be a good backup.

sorry, forgot about him. so in the red corner we've got lucas, leto, insua & paletta; inthe blue corner it's valencia, palacios, figueroa & rodallega.

tough call.

Raul or N'Gog?

Is a point.
I don't particularly want him as the striker we so desperately need to bring in, but say we had picked him up in the January window, things might certainly look brighter than they do now.

lack of goals is obviously an issue, but if we're going to look at stat tables then the one that hrts the most is the assists.

As someone pointed out Gerrad has 6, which is poor for him... and he's still our best rated.

Creativity is one of our big problems.

Nothing new or startling there.

Silva and Iniesta were both injured and Riera took the opportunity to slot in on the left. He just missed out a world cup squad place but he did play in some qualifying rounds and i'm nearly 100% positive he played in the confed. cup.

What is Diego Capel at these days? He was highly rated on the left at one stage.

Capel cant get into the sevilla team at the moment, and has been coming off the bench for the last year and a half! He started sunday against villareal only because jesus navas was out! If your looking at a winger from sevilla, Navas is the one, he's really matured this year and has broken into the spanish squad. Granted he quit the international scene at under 21s because of anxiety problems and the fact that he got homesick anytime he stepped outside of sevilla!! But seen as tho this is a thread about a new striker then Alvaro Negredo would be a good signing i feel!
