No, they’re not good enough or turn up when it matters.
Potentially our biggest downfall this season is not having a shit hot striker. Move out whoever and pay the money to get the right forwards.
"Clearly, there are some areas of the squad which have more back-up than others, and we're aware of it."
Another area of debate is whether or not City need another centre forward; Ellis Simms and Brandon Thomas-Asante both featured on Wednesday, but with Haji Wright still not yet fit and Norman...
Not saying it wasn’t worth the gamble as none of our forwards were getting goals anyway. But it doesn’t take away from the fact we need another dynamic forward player as Simms and BTA are just not good enough.
King is looking after the best interests of the club. So I would fully expect him to look at options like this as we don’t own the ground or have a long term deal in place.
He didn’t recover fully from his initial injury to only get a new injury with US. Not having a proper pre season. Annoying really but we can’t hope he’s the answer this season. We do need another top striker.
