If we end up in game where Gordon is our centre forward then we’ve failed in recruitment.

Gordon gives us options across all three forward positions. We’ve still got Isak and Wilson. Did you want a like for like replacement? Big Wout?

Comments like this make me kind of dread how unrealistic and hard to please fans will be within the next couple years.

I’d like us to have a 3rd striker, a goal scorer, by all means a young lad with potential.

 

Playing centre forward and scoring goals while doing it is a specialised and very hard thing to do. We can’t be saying that Gordon/ ASM or anyone else in the squad other than Wilson or Isak can do it. Wilson will get injured; he’s looking like he needs a rest already.


You might get away with it for a couple of games (unless you really are a Man City) but look at Chelsea, they’ve got a fantastic squad and Havertz playing up top. Bonkers.

In practice I doubt few would disagree, including Ashworth and Howe. But we're not going to have a perfect squad overnight. It's honestly a fucking miracle we shipped out Wood and Shelvey. Fraser would be another big win, but even then we'd still have a handful of players we'd prefer to not have.
