Only 2 strikers? None of the top teams have more. They all have players who can also play up top like with us and Son for example. You can't keep more than 2 happy for 1 spot.A lot hinges on Solanke. It annoys me that we only have two strikers and that's the role you sub on most often to change games.
Richarlison was dropped from Brazils squad, came back early, and is injured again (out for the newcastle tie). Solanke has a knock, shit happens and he'll be back. It's a key role and those two need to get their shit together.
That 65M marquee signing has a lot riding on it. We need him to consistently hit the net or we won't improve. And I understand folks who say it's far too underwhelming, but let's give him a few months to show what he can do.
