AndyBM Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 problem is, nobody wants our deadwood, only our fine pine, and no other club will offer the same amount of wages to them as we are, hence why these players are happy to sit on the bench or in the reserves raking in their weekly wage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CI Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Lambert's signings so far have been very good - I think he'll sell off a few players and spend what he recoups. Vlaar Westwood Lowton Benteke - all very good KEA Bennett - not convinced Bowery - too early to tell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentVilla Posted December 9, 2012 Moderator Share Posted December 9, 2012 I agree, I think people are being premature in writing off Bennett personally. I'm not saying they are wrong to make judgements on a player after a short number of games, far from it, I've already come to the conclusion that I don't think Enda Stevens is good enough, I just don't agree in regards to Bennett.

coda Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 There's a striker possibly available from abroad, has Premier experience, with stats of more than a goal every two games this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 We desperately need some better quality in the final third. I like Benteke, but he isn't getting enough support from midfield so a lot of his good work goes unrewarded. Ince would be perfect, but there are clubs in better positions than us after him I'm sure. We need goals, simple as that. We may end in relegated if we don't score more goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raymond Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Vlaar Westwood Lowton Benteke - all very good KEA Bennett Bowery - too early to tell I think we can tell on KEA. He looks an awful lot like Makoun. I agree with the rest though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted December 9, 2012 Moderator Share Posted December 9, 2012 What we need is more quality midfield rather than up front, starting with a more effective replacement for Bannan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tayls Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 We need a Yaya Toure in the middle. Collects the ball, plays it, occasionally makes some decent runs through the centre. Power. Intelligence. And I think he has great sportsmanship. Huge thighs. Boom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJVillan Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Westwood and Bannan aren't the issue in my opinion. Maybe a bit more strength in there would be handy. But it's the players ahead of them, behind Benteke that are the problem. Ireland, Holman, Albrighton, N'Zogbia etc. They just don't create chances and we're forced to play Gabby and Weimann there, who don't create chances either. For me: 2 attacking midfielders + replace anyone who leaves (Bent, Dunne etc). Anything else can wait until the summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morley_crosses_to_Withe Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Liam Trotter would be a good CM signing, would probably cost about £3m? Yes, please! A box to box midfielder with an eye for goal. He's really made Milwall tick this season and would be a bargain at the price. I think we'll face competition for his signature, though. There's even been rumours of Arsenal being interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There just isn't enough of a link between the midfield and the strikers, which forces Benteke to come further back the pitch then he should, taking him out of scoring positions.
