Chris Martin.
There....I've dared to say it....
But Chris Martin was not in the team against Huddersfield away.... We do miss an out and out striker. Daft thing was playing Cairney... It got us nothing. We should have waited until after this International Break.
Disagree. Over inflating the impact he had for the rare games he actually agreed to play for us.
Derby fan next to me saying "you can happily take him back".
Think we miss Aluko far more ... listening to the Reading game on radio...

34 appearances, don't call that rare games. 11 goals.
And Aluko has just got his first in about 17 games.....

I don't think that Vagrant meant he wanted them necessarily to stay, just that we have not replaced a more typical centre-forward, or the trickery of Aluko. If players don't want to be here, or if their price goes too high, then they have to go. But if they are important players, they have to be replaced with equal quality, hence the comment that we miss them.
Like it or not......we miss a win.
Martin was important to us and should have been replaced. Same as Malone and Aluko.
We also miss malone and Aluko.
Not to mention cairney.

Fully agree - see my post in the support Slav thread.
I don't think we miss Martin, but I do think we need someone similar. By that I mean a tall, physical striker who we can go route one to if needed as a proper plan b. It worked for crouch and stoke today and gives another option off the bench if the manager needs it.
