Sherer sums it up - it's not just a striker we need. VDS has his moments of brilliance but is worryingly error-prone. OK we've got one of the best backlines in the league but they can only take so much. Unless SAF can pull a rabbit out of the hat like he did with Ronnie, it's looking bleak. Even with a few mistakes we took the title last year with the best player in the world. We weren't a one-man team but Liverpool pushed us all the way, they aren't going to let up. I'm not yet convinced about City yet but they'll fancy their chances.
Hey I love being proven wrong but unless we get some big names (ie proven names) soon, I'll stay worrying.
