I disagree. As I posted the other day. If Murray scores a hat-trick and two goals then goes eight games without scoring he retains his 1 in 2 games ratio but is not consistent enough over a season of games. I hope to be proved wrong but his record over the seasons past is not one of a striker that will get a team promoted.
Does this mean that proven goal scorers only score 1 goal a game? or could the same be said of them too?
Signing a striker who gets 25 goals this season doesn't mean promotion, the same as not signing one means we stay down.
Also, when Zamora joined, he was unproven, however he proved that you don't have to have a reputation or previous track record to be a success and Barnes may also prove to be a success too this seasonas the signs that he and Murray can get a good partnership going are encouraging
