Default Re: One striker

Never a fan of one striker up front - even if he is a world beater he will be far too isolated and win nothing - even with two up front we currently win nothing.

Boden has disappointed and out of our four strikers you have probably selected the 4th choice with least game time - he's not big enough or strong enough to be the one man battering ram that holds the ball up and lays it off to others.

Can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear - I would leave as it is and contemplate a change as and when a new striker arrives - but to me whoever it is will just be a replacement for Reid or Massanka with the formation remaining the same - two effective blocks of four with two strikers.

Wasn't it Wilkin who kept playing one striker up front ? even when we were at home against lowly opposition ?
