Exactly this. Leo, top bloke and legend, did nothing as well as Glen had been doing. Sadly.

As posted on another thread spending a large amount of money on a striker and not having the confidence to bring him on when you need a goal which could secure your future there is something seriously wrong.
It seems strange to me that we spend a record fee on a striker, we go three games (before today) without scoring, and yet we leave him on the bench. Surely if we're going through a bad patch where we can't score the manager shakes things up and plays his new striker. Makes little sense to me.

Love the player, but yes ... his 34 year old legs need a summer off.
Can’t think of another first 11 in the PL where the centre forward chosen has zero pace, allowing opposing central defenders to easily win EVERY foot race for the ball.
The club need’s a new centre forward with pace a.s.a.p.

He’s a good PL striker nearing the end of his career. Only dreamers thought him good enough for England.

He scored the winner in the cup game.
That said, he was pleading to the bench to come off, so may be carrying a knock.

Huddersfield are good in the air, so we needed his aerial abilities.

This. It's not about dropping your best player, your worst player or your most expensive player, it's all about playing your in form players and dropping those out of form.We had no choice before the January transfer window, now we have a choice and don't seem to exercise it.(assuming everybody is fit).

We can’t afford his mixed loyalties against Palace. Too much riding on this game.

Murray was very effective the air but was isolated most of the game. I would have brought Locadia on for Gross before Propper was sent off. We needed pace through the middle to play off Murray’s headers won. Ulloa offered close to **** all in the air and spent most of his time fouling the opposition, give me Murray every time.

He has looked below par since being suggested for England but having said that Ulloa was no better when he came on. I was surprised CH didnt throw Locadia into the match on 75 mins to go for the winner.and taken off either March or Izquierdo and go more direct. straight for goal.

Murray had a poor game, then much younger Ulloa (fresh legs and age on his side) was awful ... contributed nothing.
If we stay up and buy a couple of strikers in the summer, they might be better quality than Ulloa. At least at this stage, the club aren't committed. Decision, decisions.
