| I'm a broken record I know, but we need a proper striker in January 15:17 - Dec 26 with 576 views | Dubtractor | Hirst is OK (not much more) but struggling for form, Azon just isn't good enough, much as I'd love to see him come good. Our CF options are just so far short of what we ought to have, given the money we've spent, and if we don't sort it in January we can forget the top 2. We were decent enough until the final 3rd today, but without a centre forward to link play, to hold the ball up, to sniff out chances etc etc we're ultimately toothless. |  |

Seeing him in the u21 I’m hopeful Burns can be better than some feel. Shame McAteer can’t play on loan for someone else |  | |  |

Drogba was awful in his first season in England (obvs not saying he'll be like Drogba...) Hirst is the problem as he seems to be getting worse. Of all the players that need time to click, he should be the last |  |

Agree with this. Whether we can find the right two players in Jan for any sensible money is debatable, but that should be the aim. Watching the u21s and funnily enough reading Wark’s book my sis got me for Xmas, the club has to pump as much into its yoof system as it can long term to develop its own players. Infrastructure first, first team second. But that’s the future. For the now, see BUs post. |  | |  |

If only there was a Marcus Stewart around and someone was stupid enough to sell them to us. Or a Kevin Phillips - what a player he would be for our team right now. I’m out of touch with who would even be considered in that mould today. |  | |  |

Disagree, Azon has been at the club for 6 months. You don’t need to be playing every minute of every game to appreciate what is needed. Unfortunately isn’t the level of quality we need. Whose decision it was to bring him here I don’t know, one thing is clear, we need better, much much better. |  | |  |
