Our Strikers

Harry will only bring one, either Saviola or Hooper. Zamora will always start.

Well in January he bought Remy and busted a gut to get in Odemwinge and Crouch too and that was even when BZ was back fit. So that does not really back up the idea that Harry is a big fan of Zamora. I think though he is a big fan of having a target man leading the line. Partly cos this is England and that $hit works, and partly because the squad played without Zamora or any target man for most of the season and all those short assed "quality midfielders" could not score for $hit. So Zamora played through lack of options. After all it is difficult to see how a club desperate for goals could leave a striker on the bench especially when the alternatives had spectacularly failed to deliver.

If rumours are to believed that that Hooper is on his way in addition to Saviola and Remy is staying that's three top attackers and you would assume all are all starters so what becomes of Johnson and Zamora how do they fit in cant imagine they would be happy with a game here and there off the bench

3 does not go into 2 less so 5 and Harry has sand Bobbys praises since he arrived and played him when he had one leg so cant see him being offloaded

I would bet his first choice pairing up front is Crouch + Remy - little and large - Crouch delivers the flick ons Remy puts them away.
But that means 442 which means only two in CM and that is why Parker is a key signing - no combo of CMs last season looked comfortable in a 3 let alone a 2. Get Parker and he will anchor CM and allow playing 2 in there.

Do people really believe hooper is going to give up playing for a club like celtic- champs league/europa with big crowds etcto a team which is playing in the championship. Not gonna happen.

Ok, so he may play a few big European games, but what about the rest of the time?
