Think you will find he will be a differant player (subject to finding full fitness again), the Poyet style of play just did'nt suit him.... Having a big lump like leo holding the ball and play for him to make runs etc... i genuinly think will work!
Will Oscar play 2 strikers? Thats a whole differant question...

If Barnes has gone all his detractors will then target CMS when he goes on another barren run without scoring

Haven't they been saying he's going to be back the end of each month for the last 3 months? I hope he is back soon and hopefully being out for so long will make him even more hungry

Will be a long time before fully match fit and can even think of 90 mins football

Wrong........
I know he's been in the gym for quite a few weeks now, whether much leg work has been done in that time though.

Quite a mouth watering thought to have a couple of wingers (possible LuaLua, Lopez, Conway?, Buckley?) supplying ball into Ulloa who is second to none in using his head and CMS who is a fantastic poacher of the ball!
Things are set for a good finish if we can just take points from the Barnsley's and Yeovill's of the league

Wrong.......CMS even in his barren spells has been twice the player that some other attacking players I could mention have been.

Wasn't his barren spells the reason we signed Ulloa, CMS will be gone at the end of his contract back to L1

Surely would have lost some pace. Isn't it the same injury shearer had when he went from average pace to a snail?

Disagree! Think back to the Huddersfield game.... Would CMS have missed that sitter?? I doubt it even in a barren run!
I am not for one minute in the 'we hate Ashley Barnes' camp! but I do think his finishing is something to be desired. CMS would add another dimension to the squad ie- Pace! (hopefully) and the ability to finish in front of goal! Look at his Posh record, just never had the service under Poyet.

Silly old bat
1. It wasn't a sitter
2. I've seen CMS miss a lot more sitters than Barnes. He tends to shoot straight at the keeper.
3. I don't think his pace will be as good after his injuries.
