We used up a lot of games trying out different strikers, I would like us to decide on one and give him the confidence of being a regular starter.
We cannot be in the market for a proven 20 goal a season player or 15 for that matter because We couldnt afford it and If he was that good he would want to go somewhere else.
I personally would go for Mateta, but where does that leave Edouard, he wouldnt be my first choice wide either. He also needs a good run in the team to gain confidence which is unfortunate having two players in the same boat.

That's fine...I've got no issue being on my own. Also no issues eating humble pie if next season he turns around and bangs in 20 goals. I just can't really see it. For the record,

- I'm not saying he hasn't improved. He has.
- I'm not saying he won't be our #1. He probably will.
- I'm not saying he doesn't work hard. He does.

I'm simply saying so far, we've seen nothing to suggest he's got the quality to be the #1 striker in a team pushing for top 10.

*You're.

Who is this 20 goal a season goal scorer, we should be signing?

In my view Edouard is a better forward and striker than Mateta and will be our main striker by the end of the upcoming season

I hear Ronaldo's unhappy at United.
Who am I kidding, we won't sign him - doesn't fit our 'buy young' policy!

Whichever one Vieira chooses as his striker I just hope that he gives him a settled run in the team and this will also help the midfield getting familiar with providing chances for a particular type of forward.

Edouard lacks work rate and if he adds this to his game then he may be first choice. I have my doubts he can.

 


Bring back Brolin

He certainly looked better in the early months of being here. Mateta looked like a Sunday League player until Christmas.

However, since then their progression curves have been going in very different directions. If Mateta improves as much over the next 6 months as he did the last, Edouard won't get a look in.

Hopefully Edouard relocates his mojo soon. If he doesn't he may be a bit part player.

I remember that was a criticism from some Celtic fans towards the end of his time there. I think he is a quality player but in today's modern game there is little room for players who are not willing to bust a gut. Unfortunately for him he never got a long run in the team last season so it was probably hard for him to find consistency or reach peak fitness. I'm certainly not writing him off, but I must admit he hasn't reached the levels I hoped he might when we signed him.

What’s this got to do with Transfers, is he being sold?

Wouldn't mind a swap deal, Mayoral, Dolberg or even Dennis
