Stick Payne up front in a 2 with Stockers, not sure if Kanu is the answer yet...5

Not ideal but I'd try Payne (run channels, rather than target obviously) up front with Stockley. Chuks to come on at some point.7

Such disappointing news this morning for this young player who has shown how valuable he is in the current squad & clearly has CAFC written on his heart.
With the support of the club medics, Carl & Tracey, he'll come back stronger & determined to reclaim his place in the team.
It goes without saying that our very best wishes for his recovery are with him.
His absence will have a major impact on a squad bereft of goals.
Congratulations, Thomas Sandgaard. Any faint hopes we may have had for finishing the season in a respectable position are effectively gone.
Fail to prepare. Prepare to fail.

I’d play Payne or CBT up there and get CBT’s pace working both channels and stretching their defence. Well that’s the theory anyhow… 🤣

I'd rather we changed formation than played someone out of position. Had enough of that last season.3

Gutted for Miles - he was growing with every game
Kanu certainly looks to have bulked up a bit in the last 6 months but he’s totally different to Leaburn. He’s not a hold-up player he’s a poacher. A sniffer.
Do we create enough chances for him? I would say not at the moment.But this might just be the chance to prove himself or for us to try something different4 -
I think it’s exciting to bet which currently 16 or 17 year old kid will get an injury this time next year and take that seasons hopes and dreams down with him due to further stupid recruiting by next seasons owner Zzzzz0

A front 3 of Stockley, CBT & JRS. After 60 mins you bring on Aneke for Stockley (or switch to 442). I would despair having Morgan anywhere near the front line. Morgan ??? Have you seen his shooting boots !!!2 -

When people say front 3 it's never actually like that is it?2
-
Clare is a versatile player and we have seen that he has a shot on him. Could he play off Stockley given the lack of other options?1
-
So predictable. I’ve always thought squads need four decent centre halves and four good strikers. Miles as the wild card fourth striker I could see but to rely on a kid as second in line to Stockley was always likely to end in tears. Hope Leaburn makes a full and speedy recovery and that Stockley, for all his limitations, can stay fit.7

Payne, Clare, Morgan and CBT all mentioned on here to play as a striker. Christ6

Get innis up there with Stockley 👍🏻3

At least they will not be selling Leaburn in the January transfer window.
You would guess that he will take 3 to 6 months to recover from such a serious injury. The club must not rush it.
Those who want Kanu. He is not ready for first team football
So may be this will force Sandagaard into the transfer or loan market in January.
He should be searching now for a good replacement and negotiating soon.3 -
I can see Payne and Morgan being our powerful strike partnership until January.3

We are short up front, but we do still have two senior strikers. Miles has been a great story this season, but because Aneke has come back we do have cover now.
Just a note on the whole how long young players stay before they leave, and it's pretty bad everywhere. Would we see more of our homegrown players if we were in the Championship? Yes. But not necessarily drastically that much. It's the Prem and everyone else, and even then, it's really the big handful of clubs and the rest. So whilst TS has made a lot of mistakes, including not signing another striker, the fact that young players like Burstow leave so quickly after breaking into the first team has more to do with the state of the modern game than it does us specifically.

Another TS masterplan farts full in his face! Plenty of cover for the only real goal scorer who could play more than half an hour in the team?

Since we're desperately throwing names into the hat from left field, I'm going for chicken legs Mcgrandles to partner Stocks up front and blow league 1 out of the water...2
-
Kanu or Casey up front with Stockers. No problem.0
