Imagine our season without McGoldrick and Clarke?

Relegation I would think.

That would be the same for a lot of teams though so kind of a weird comment IMO most teams in our league have to have one main striker.

He also stays wide and keeps the shape, whilst Moussa often disappears infield making the central area too congested.

I got shot down when I said this before but I am slightly disappointed with Moussa.

He is very inconsistent, some games he disappears totally.

He is much better there, but for me even there he goes missing and doesn't influence games enough.

It's nothing to do with sheffers is due to that fact that nobody in our team can score goals apart from baker ATM.

We wouldn't be much better under him. Nobody in our team can score goals apart from baker. If he doesn't score we don't score thats how it is ATM. This squad needs ,ore firepower adding to it.

I can't recall to many games where he has played in the centre and I thought he was poor, apart from his first few games in a 442. He's definitely the best player for the central position.

I'm not that worried about the lack of firepower at the moment. I remember a Falkirk Fan coming on the forum saying he signs some duff players but he has a real knack for signing forwards (El Agui, Lyle Taylor)

Not poor, just not disappearing for 70 mins. He is the best we have in that position, but for a position that is more of a second/support striker I'd be expecting 12-15 goals from that position.

Unfortunately, 12-15 goal strikers aren't gonna be available for free. High expectations from a free player

If the takeover happens, I would like to see a proper forwards coach employed. One of our ex players such as Dion Dublin.

This just goes to show how vital McGoldrick and Clarke were to us. It also makes me realise how moronic some of our fans were for slating Clarke earlier this year.

Strikers are at a premium in this division, I honestly think just a decent striker can be the difference between 4 or 5 places or more in the division. Although I don't think Pressleys tactics would've helped Clarke's game as much.

Decent striker and a decent keeper are worth so much at this level. Defending is generally sloppy and midfield is generally naive in most of the teams I have seen at this level. From top to bottom with a few exceptions.
