We seem to be struggling to get our striker into the game in recent weeks
I think it's almost impossible to play to any strikers strengths AND use the two wingers well. They aren't beat a man and put it on a sixpence wingers are they?
Really you want your center foward to either drag the center back out wide to make space or drop into midfield to give you an extra man.
I was going to say it feels almost like I’d rather we played a false 9 in that position, because at the moment game after game the one up top just gets swallowed up by the opposition centre backs.
The way the two wingers play also means the ball between the center backs and full back is never on for the striker either.
