I would like to know what this injury is. Is it operable?
Will he ever get better or is it mental?
He looks shot.
Im sure Emery has come out fairly recently and said he has some kind of cyst, which is making it uncomfortable for him?

The “we don’t score enough goals” thing is just nonsense. We started the season without scoring for 4 games. Once we’ve got going we’ve done fine.

Or goal difference is much lower than those around us. A striker in the goals column would have a positive effect in that. Also we might stop mocking games by a single goal. The pressure exerted on teams that have to play from goals behind might also see us win games more comfortably. I like the guy, he’s done great things for us over the last few years. He’s not producing this season. We need a striker that odd scoring. Is that unfair to say?

Good point, if you ignore the games we didn't score enough goals then we've actually scored enough goals.

24 goals in the last 11 league games is very good.

Imagine where we'd be if we had a striker who scores goals.

Third in the league probably.

Whilst we're using our imagination, what about the return we're getting from the £200k/ week we're spending on 'The Sanch'?

I reckon we'd have gone on a bonkers run if Ollie was scoring more, Something crazy like 15 wins out of 17.

What? There's no way we'd do that.
