Would lambert really be better playing up front than son?
Son is a better player, but as a number 9 on a short term basis Lambert would do a better job.

I don't know why everyone thinks it's a walk in the park to just join a team in January who has a very demanding head coach and expect them to fit in and bang in goals.Son, Lamela and Chadli are not CF's. I don't know why everyone thinks it's a walk in the park to play the number 9 role?
Son said in an interview in feb that he can play there and has played the position before. Why do you think he can't play there?
I think the physical demands of the PL would seriously limit his effectiveness in that role.
Considering all that Kane does I disagree that as long as they score they are good enough insurance.

OK, tell me a player who we could realistically sign that is better than Kane, would score more goals and would fit perfectly in our pressing style?
The best thing about these posts is that when you subsequently ask them the above question, they can't give an answer.
The new forward could play with Kane? When njie has come on a sub we have seen him play as a striker with Kane behind or if the striker is berahino, berahino can play on the right.
I'm not saying this will happen every week but it doesn't have to be a straight swap if we can get the right player in
I don't think Chadli immobile, I think he's just lazy.
Left. Berahino's primary position is LWF. Unfortunately so is Son's, Chadli's and Njie's (whereas only Lamela prefers RWF). .
You'll get ppl rating this funny etc. but the same did when I mentioned Vardy and Mahrez in the summer "how are two Leicester players going to improve us, we should sign these two FM wonderkids from the Portuguese third division or, failing that, Messi and Suarez".Would Lambert adapt quicker, having played for Pochettino previously. I don't think he's the answer, but just playing devils advocate in terms of players coming in and adjusting.
Considering Son hasn't exactly played a ton and Chadli has been injured most of the year and they play the same position AND we never exactly felt short I don't agree that we'd suddenly be short if Son played CF. We have several players to play in those areas....depends on whether a short or long term injury. secondly ..with njie out for 3mths.. Potentially Moving son to CF would leave us light elsewhere. we need a backup CF and if they can convert chances in premier league playing a CF role they'll likelly have at least some of Kane's attributes. The mad thing to do would be have no one. Look at the top four finishes over the last few years and the number of out and out strikers they had was always greater than 1 regardless of formation.

Nor how it's a walk in the park to acquire players in arguably the most valued position (monetary wise) in the middle of the season. Low teams won't let go of their goal scorers because they want to finish as high as possible and the same can basically be said of the higher teams.
In January, yeah, don't expect a whole lot.So we might as well just give up and stop looking
He did alright back in the day at Southampton under an Argentinian coach.Are some seriously suggesting Rickie Lambert could be the answer?
That was 3 seasons ago though, and I remember reading how Soton fans thought he had lost a yard of pace in his final season.He did alright back in the day at Southampton under an Argentinian coach.
He's only scored one goal this season and that was a penalty.Son is a better player, but as a number 9 on a short term basis Lambert would do a better job.
