After a nice bottle of red I'm still not feeling much better about today since my last post. What really gets my goat is having to watch the same sterile brand of football which has got us nowhere in this division - ball pumped up to Mullin who wins a good percentage of headers, but so what? The ball mostly goes nowhere useful. Or, it comes low to him and he does a great job of shielding it with back to goal, but their defence has time to deploy while this goes on and there is no flow to the move. It's like watching Groundhog Day.
We need a big STRIKER up front who has pace, who can run the channels and get around the defence or pull defenders out of position to make openings. I don't know if the new guy can do this although he looked the part against Everton youths, but he can't do it sitting on the bench for 80% of the game.
