Post pub musing… If Hirst stays fit he should have a career year! 05:58 - Jul 26 with 728 views | Joey_Joe_Joe_Junior | Think the second half of last season went a bit understated how well he done when called upon because of the terrible form we were in. Saw enough to think he could be decent in the PL let alone Championship. Chelsea and Everton away are games that came to mind. Obviously need another striker but if he plays over 35 games, look out. How’s he looked pre season so far overall? Also is Jack Clarke going to play on try right hand side? That’s twice in a row now isn’t it? Or just experimenting? Glad to hear Philogene had a good night! Haven’t seen any of the two games outside of the limited highlights. |  | | |  |

Al-Hamadi does it too but to a lesser extent, although he did have the look of someone who would chase a crisp packet in the wind last night (but only for a short run.) Jack Clarke looked very dangerous and Philogene brought something to the game that I don't think even Omari brings, a mastery on the wing in the middle third of the pitch and then a driving run in on goal, it's why he scored twice. I will be disappointed if we do not sign another striker but not devastated. |  |

Let’s hope they both stay fit. Hirst has a very high ceiling I think - he could really do with a 50 game season as the main man. |  | |  |

We absolutely must sign another striker - if Hirst is injured, which has happened fairly regularly we are down to Al Hamadi. We have under Kmac always rotated our striker every match, we need two of a similar level. |  |

Yep a Hirst injury and we're down to rotation between Al-Hamadi and Tom Taylor / Buabo, or a better known 10 who McKenna doesn't consider to be a 9 in his system. That rotation problem emerges if Al-Hamadi becomes the injured party too. |  | |  |

No we have to sign another one, it will be almost malpractice not to. |  | |  |
