Who can lead the line,score goals and get us out of this division. It's as simple as that, loads of possession, plenty of chances, but not enough goals.

People keep going on about which midfielders to pick, positions we are spoilt for choice in, but it's up front we lack bite.

Fortune and Tudgay are a waste of time, Armstrong is quality but inexperienced. I'm really hoping TM has a couple of targets lined up, as it will cost us promotion I'm sure of it if he doesn't.

Fortune is a waste of time. Tudgay for me is v. underrated. Played one scored one. But yes strikers needed, hopefully get Dominic Samuel?

Not a massive concern for me we have goals in Armstrong Murphy Maddison.. For me our first signing needs to be a centre back at the start of January.

"Plenty of chances"?

I think one of the problems we've had recently is that we aren't creating plenty of chances.

The other problem is we can't defend set pieces.

Still would have given my right arm at the start of the season to be where we are now but there's a few tings need ironing out.

We have strikers who can score but they are not scoring because they are not getting the ball in good positions. It's either the midfield or Mowbray's tactics. We have been found out and it's up to Mowbray to figure out the winning tactics. I think he has fallen short in the last couple of games.

Teams go through up and down patches. We are rotating our squad and keeping players fresh.In the long run this will be crucial. January will define our season and TM readying for the task.

We need some new faces to increase the competition. Some players are getting complacent.

if you look at the last few games Armstrong is beginning to try to hard for a goal as on a few occasions he could of play to someone else in a far better position to score.IE Job at home after 30 seconds and yesterday when he should of played the ball to Murphy.

how about a cheeky half season loan for matt smith at fulham?
bristol got him in on loan last year to help push them over the promotion line
exactly the wrecking ball we need

maybe im being ignorant but i really think we could sweep in and take samuels from gillingham if we tried.

he would be my number 1 target anyway

Definitely need a 20 goal per season type player to take pressure off Armstrong, if we have 2 men opposition defences need to keep quiet at least we have midfielders who can bag the occasional goal but totally agree CB is a major priority

He the ex Oldham lad? Was decent if I recall correctly, but striker who got a fair share of goals.

An experienced Centre Back will be Mogga's number one priority as he has said already,but we do need to bring in a striker to play alongside Armstrong,or to replace him if he goes. I'm still positive we can have a good run in from January till the end of the season,but we do need to strengthen if we want automatic promotion I feel.
