Striker crisis, it's not looking good

[BensGrandad]

When fit I would play Hinshlewood just in front of Butters and McShane as Sven did with Ledley King as defensive midfielder protecting the defence.

I think that he has the speed, the tackling ability and the foresight to be able to do that job.

Have you seen our goals against record 2nd worse in the Division.

Had we not conceeded so many we would be half way up the table irerespective of how few we have scored.

We need 16 clean sheets from now to stand a chance of staying up plus a few odd goals scored.

16 clean sheets is nowhere near what we need, if we get 8 i will be happy.

He didn't look very good in midfield last year when he was pushed forward to shackle Idiakez against Derby. In fact, it was a disaster.

If we only get 8 we will be relegated.

16 give us at least 16 points and then we only need to score 1 goal in 5 of those games and we are safe virtually.

I wasnt thinking of a man marking job because he would get dragged around the field as happened against Derby but to sit in front of Butter and McShane and protect that area.

Like a gamekeeper?

GOON!!!!

What happens if we win each game we keep a clean sheet in and lose all the rest?

Granted that the chances are low but it's not impossible...what's the point in stating something that isn't true?

That's something that kev would do!

 

[BensGrandad]

If we keep 8 clean sheets and win all of them we will get 24 points + our 28 which may be enough giving us 52 points.

If we keep 16 clean sheets we will get 16 points and then score 1 goal in each of five of the games that will give us 5 wins ( 1-0) and 11 draws (0-0) =26 points which will definitely be enough.

Who is the goon.

To be fair, its you still. Football is a funny game, how many games have we won this season to the scoreline of ?-0? Plymouth And Palace. Which means we have won 3 when the other team have scored.

It will be nice to think we will get 16 clean sheets but to be honest you must be living in a world of make believe. There are 16 games left this season, if we keep 16 clean sheets i will streak accross Withdean. Our defensive record is poor, and i will be more than happy with 8 as would most people on this board.

Transfer deadline this Tuesday.

 

[dunno]

Transfer deadline expires this Tuesday.

and not much gets done at the weekend so that gives us two and a half full days to do some business

 

[paddy]

Be optimistic, i'm sure there has got to be some sort of striker lined up for us
