    Are others in agreement that we need 2 more strikers to give DS the option of playing 2 up top?
    We also don't want to be short as we were last season.
    We had Woodrow out for the longest 2 weeks in history and then Keiffer for 4 months.
    Our current squad, even with 1 straight replacement for KM will not cope at this level if we lose a striker through injury.

    Do you know that DS wants to play 2 up top?

    I don't think he will most of the time, but it's always nice to have the option if you're chasing a game

    I wonder, based on who we've signed, whether we're going to be playing more of a flexible 4-2-4. In that case Wilks, Brown, Bahre, Woodrow, Thomas, Chaplin and Thiam all look to me to be playing for four places already. Not to mention Styles, Miller and Green.

    I think it might be more of a 4-3-3 with the 2 wide players coming inside and the width being created by the full backs.

    Yep, that would make sense as well. In either case I still think a defensively-inclined central midfielder is more of a priority even than replacing Moore.
