Hope I'm wrong, but wouldn't go with Jackson here 20:08 - Dec 26 with 1158 viewsDublinBlue84

I know Ladapo isn't in favour, but Jackson isn't and never has been a centre striker.

There's years worth of evidence showing he can't do it

McKenna has got this one wrong. Hope he proves me wrong.

Inclined to agree, but if we find ourselves playing alot on the break, that speed will be handy.

The problem is all that Jackson has is speed....

Quite. He’s a much more complete player than - say - Danny Haynes

But that's not saying much, as Danny Haynes also wasn't a centre forward in my eyes.

We've seen Jackson play up front on his own countless time, barely scored a goal, easily bumped off the ball, little to no technical ability,

Totally illogical decision.

Except for the games which he bossed it last season in that position. One evening game in particular - Sheff. Weds I think.

What’s KMc meant to do?

Neither Ladapo or Jackson are anywhere close to good enough at this level and he knows this. We’ll get a new striker next month but until then it’s what we have. Hirst injury has at least confirmed this.

If he went with Ladapo there we're dead in the water. You want to go with a player who's main ability is poaching when we're going to have our backs against the wall.

Jackson should be able to cover Hirst's role much better. Just needs to leave his shoulder in on defenders a bit more.

And so early in the game too. Let Jackson run himself into the ground for 50 minutes then chuck Ladapo on.

Ladapo is not liked on here and clearly McKenna doesn't fancy him recently.

My guess is he's off and he'd rather try other people.

Jackson for me doesn't offer a lot unless the defence is high and he can get in behind.

He's never been a good central striker. His decent games have come from out wide.

I think we needed to go Jackson. Just to try and make something happen.

Hope he does the second half. But I think even the biggest Jackson fan would admit that we need a striker more than anything in January. He’s incredibly limited. But we all knew that.

Totally agree, if by this level we're talking top ten in the Championship. I think they could do a job for bottom-third sides maybe as squad players, so would like to someone take a punt when the time comes to move on. We were desperate for a striker before Hirst's injury and I'd have gone with Jackson too.

I don't generally disagree but I do think Jackson makes more sense against the CB pairing they have. I don't imagine Ladapo getting much change out of Coady and Vestergaard(until the 89th minute of course...)

Kayden’s just not composed enough in front of goal tonight.

A better striker and maybe chaplins playing him on for
One on one rather than shooting from half way again

It's not a new thing though was it? In his first season here he showed he was useless as a number 9 and nothing I've seen since has suggested otherwise.

He has attributes that can be used in certain situations an d there are times we can use his pace, but he's not a central striker.

If you remember the relegation season, we had him, Harrison, Keane and Quarner and the later two were supposed to be an improvement on the later, Most people agreed we had nothing up front hat season.
