No point signing striker after striker if only one of them can be in their natural position on the pitch at any one time.

We can keep all our strikers occupied by sitting the ones not playing in row Z, ready for Kyel Reid's crosses.

Man City do this all the time, but I'm not sure
we can afford too pay players too go.

Seriously though if he's fit and cheap I'd take the chance, we are
Desperately lacking in quality and confidence in front of goal.

I know he's not match fit, and has injuries in the past, but is there anything
Serious now.
If so why is he even here.

Becchio was a good striker and a very hard worker at Leeds. If he is half the player he was at Leeds he would be decent.

However his record over the last three years, something like 15 appearances and 3 goals does not inspire confidence. I suspect he is a spent force.

By tweaks do you mean signing a player capable of scoring?

Sordell clearly lacks confidence
Agyei is very young and still learning, has been taking to long when in good opportunities, holding on shielding and holding for too long when a quick pass will do.
Tudgay drops too deep meaning he's not in the box to finish
Wright we've not seen enough of but seemed direct in his 15 mins at Fleetwood.
We need that striker who stays on the shoulder of the defenders

You've clearly not seen us play this season, we need a lot more than a few tweaks.

I think we need to give the strikers we have a chance, you can't keep changing the forwards if they don't score in a single game. I also agree on the lack of creation of chances for these strikers, if we are having 15 shots from outside the area then that's because supply to the forwards isn't coming from anywhere else. Sordell was put out on the wing after 65 minutes on Saturday, he put in a few good crosses but you feel it should be him in the box on the end of those crosses.

We need a goal scorer. I've seen a limited amount of games but sordell and agyai are poor. Agyei looks to the crowd for advice and sordell falls over far too easily. No real drive

I've seen most games this season home and away and you are wrong! We have the making of a good side, way better than last year. But hey...all a matter of opinion.

TM needs to learn from his mistakes regarding out of contract players, they are usually out of contract for a reason, may not have cost us money but a wate of time and TM looks less and less capable of building a competitive squad,
