Lack of strikers a major concern.

Nobody talks about Liverpool U23's
-----------
Actually people do. They beat Sheffield and progressed in the FA Cup.

*Shrewsbury

Signing players for the future ?, what future ?. The future should be getting into the Premiership next season, that's the future in question. We always seem to be signing for the future, but what about the here and now ?. It seems to me that all this talk about "a player for the future" is because they have no answers for the here and now problems, and even if they get promoted those problems will persist in any league until they wise up bigtime. Can we be the only club to have been in the top two for most of the season to miss out on promotion for the second season running. Once was enough, but twice shows something is drastically wrong. Hope to god to be wrong this time, but until those goals start to come, I'm very worried.

Scored four goals in two years, perpetually runs into trouble when he has the ball, spent more time on the treatment table than on the pitch.
I think there's a tendency with most football supporters to think the players in the squad are better than they actually are. There are certainly a number in our squad that are in that category, Roberts, Douglas, Shackleton to name but three.

Thought we looked much better with Roberts on the pitch against Wigan tbh.

Still need to plan whatever level. Equally there is the here and now.....

Tell you what, how about we see how Augustin performs for the first team before drawing any conclusions?

ok, and your conclusion now?

And then you look at likes of Mitrovic and Watkins starting to fire at the business end of the season and it shows what good centre forwards look like.
