    This lack of goal scoring is going to take us

    tumbling down the league unless the problem is addressed.

    It's ok the super optimists saying look we are top half.

    The realism is that we have had one win in the last five game where as three teams out of the bottom five have had twice that.

    You only have to look at the run Southampton have had. A couple of months ago they were dead and buried certs for relegation and now have equal points to us.

    Answer to that is that they are scoring goals and we are not. A few of the teams well below us are scoring frequently too.

    Watch your back Bruce. You are in a false position.

    By my view, as it stands it's taking us up the league.

    And weirdly we may just hit the ground running in the latter half of the season. You just never know.

    If we had a quality striker we would be in with a good chance of top 7/8 but not with joelinton leading the line, It just makes it totally crazy not to have brought one in last month

    Granted he hasn't scored many but sometimes a few changes can reap massive rewards for him.
    His overall game is good. He's clearly got something about him.
    All he needs is to be better provided on a more consistent basis and I believe/have hope, he will put a few away in this last few months, unless he's taken out of the firing line, which I doubt he will, for long.


    The fact that we haven't played too many exciting games and the fact that we've struggled for goals from front men....I'd say being 10th is pretty good going, considering.

    Christ where do you get this view from. He is woeful and what is this thing he has about him? Nobody except 3 posters on here rate him and i am beginning to think all 3 posters are one and the same person.
    Joelinton couldn't perform in the chimpo never mind the Prem.
