As i said yesterday, it's goals we need, not holding the ball up well, good link play or making good runs. The two most likely in my opinion are Francis and Baker.

i'm going with baker and lavine, baker for his abality to cross, run with the ball and score.

lavine for his ability in the air and his speed now that hes fit.

Baker and Francis for me. Baker a definite starter, top scorer and the man in form. Havent been totally convinced by Francis this season, but he's just ahead of Lavine IMO. But if Eric starts a goalscoring streak he's in there...

Baker, I feel, is not an out and out striker. He finds it hard to win a ball in the air. His best position is out wide or playing in behind a striker, linking play on the ground. Best crosser of a ball we have - so out wide is where he should be. Barrett and Lavine for me, although Francis must be in with a strong shout.

after being away for the summer scouting for my club coventry(spotted some good talent if u know what i mean) i have to say that any poll conducted should have baker as a cert to start he has the ability to turn a game on its head which is invaluable to us i mean you guys i mean why cant the world get on but barrett should partner him in my view


some people see things as they are and say why, i look at things that never were and say why not
