Darren Bent anyone?

He's looked quite sharp since coming back

I'd give him time to be honest, he is just a kid who scored a respectable amount in Serie A

Long injury layoff as well.

Worth keeping but the jury is still out. He's a woodwork hitter. Time will tell if he can turn that into goals.

GOOD GOD OP.....R U FKN SERIOUS!!!!

get bent

feck off

Irrespective of Bent, I don't agree that we are fine for strikers.

Both Suarez and Sturridge are likely to be regular starters. That means we only have Borini as back up.

Yesil won't be fit at the start of the season and is only 19 even when he gets fit. He is not going to be ready and we will need U21 games after a long lay off. Nobody else in the academy is anywhere near ready as far as strikers go.

We lack experience in the squad. For me a late 20's early 30's striker who doesn't mind being sub a fair bit would be ideal for the squad. That is not easy to find of course, especially one whose wages are not ridiculous.

We would hope to progress in both domestic cups next season even without Europe, which will mean a 45-50 game season. Sturridge is a little injury prone, nothing major but he does pick up knocks and muscle injuries. Suarez is obviously suspension prone, and Borini is very injury prone.

You can't have a bottomless pit of strikers just in case they get injured, but a 4th one when you play two in the team regularly is essential.

Exactly, someone of that ilk would be perfect.

Not many of them about though.

Darren Bent

You must be joking. He's exactly what we DON'T need.
