Our strikers have made a total of 18 league appearances between them including substitute appearances and have not scored a goal. Adams, Donaldson (gone), The Juke, Vassell, Gallagher. If you include Maghoma they have scored 2 goals in 24 appearances. None of them look like scoring or capable of finishing. The service has been poor but surely one of them should have scored by now. No wonder we are in the bottom three. |

I personally wouldn't go pointing the finger at certain players or positions just yet. The whole squad as a unit hasn't had time to gel yet and our strikers have all been injured or just returning from injury at some point in the last 6 weeks. When Adams and Vassell are both fully match fit and on the pitch together, we'll see the quality they've got. |

I think once you see Boga Jota Vassell and Adams together that will scare the world. How we get the ball to them that is another question. |

As usual it's the supply to them, or lack of. We hardly troubled the Preston keeper at the weekend. We need Boga to play like he did in the first half for the full 90 minutes (or near enough). Jota needs to play behind the front striker(s) in a roaming role and not on the wing. I'm not sure about Adams' finishing to be honest, but hopefully it'll come. |

I said it before the season started, remember everyone telling me to chill... Gallagher 12 goals in 47 games Adams 7 in circa 30 Vassell 10 in 40 Jutkiewicz - god knows.. I was hoping Gallagher would come good as people were raving, but let's be real, he looks useless. |

Totally agree. We need goals and for that I think Jota needs to play. We also lost an edge with Maghoma being dropped. He's so direct and tests keepers a lot. I hope Carsley can make Davis and Gardner run their socks off while Boga, Jota and Maghoma create havoc behind Adams. Time to drop Gallagher when he's back.
