Always get good strikers, Sargent, Makama, now this Toure.

Poll: Who would you like to be manager out of these?

At least we spent the window chasing 2 strikers who are both 1 hamstring injury away from being out for the rest of the season…


Aren't all players one hamstring away from being out for the rest of the season?

Yes, they do. 4 in 2. Not a bad return.

Yet there wasnt a single striker in the world who would have come to us in January, that would have improved us.

We do need to get better at recruitment..


Our recruitment team managed to nab their best midfielder (arguably their best player)!

Trust the process. Trust Phil.

And yet we’ve scored 9 more goals than them in 2 less games.

It amazes me the people who follow our games don’t yet realise that a number 9 in our system is not the primary goal outlet …


Is that quite right? Agree we're far from reliant. Very right to point that out.

If you consider who our top scorers should be this season though, adjusting for Clarke's penalties, it's very much Hirst and Azón for me. They've had the lion's share of our big chances. Azón has the most shots of any player in the league I think, adjusting for time on the pitch. Clarke and Philogene are ahead of them by virtue of being so much more clinical, not because we've concentrated our play on creating more chances for them at the expense of the striker.

Season before, Delap was comfortably in front. Season before that, nobody scored at a quicker pace than Moore. If you tot up our goals by position in 23/24, I'd guess CF just edges it. Would be tight.

So without wishing to be a negative Nellie, imo our 9 often doesn't look to be the primary goal outlet due to struggling strikers, but it is marginally the best position in a McKenna team to score goals from (with other excellent positions too).

Which club identified him as an unknown quantity..?

I find it quite interesting that those who can never see any negatives in our club, can never see any positives in what them lot do.

Strange.

I find it quite interesting that some on here like to put words in people's mouths. I never said anything about Norwich's recruitment.

No words were put anywhere. You praised our move, I added context. That’s called a discussion.

My broader point still stands, some can never acknowledge positives elsewhere, but never see faults at home.

You insinuated I never see any negatives in our club, or any positives in what them lot do. When all I actually did is remind you we nabbed their best player. It was a lighthearted quip, but seems to have hit a raw nerve.

It seems fashionable, lately, to attack our recruitment team. Forgetting, of course, that it was stripped to the bone under Evans and will take time to bear fruit under the new regime. Norwich's has been in place for decades.

Look a bit closer... 3 of the 4 are tap-ins from a few yards, fair play that he is in the right place at the right time as good strikers should be but, these goals say more about the team than it says about Toure. The final goal v Oxford was a good finish of course.

Small sample size so lets see how he goes for the next few weeks. He will have plenty of opportunity now Makama is out for the season and Sargent has been banished.


Is Makama out for the season? Hadn't heard that.

Ouch! Has Sargeant gone yet?

Poor old budgies could be straight back up sh!t creek then.

Oh dear.

Good work by Philogene...... GREAT WORK BY PHILOGENE!!!
