what did the tweet say?

Truly dire up front, we are in trouble if we don't invest in some striking options!

pelle doesnt deserve his place in the team on current form, problem is we don't have anyone else

even a half fit long would be more effective than pelle at the moment

cant think of many other premiership teams with a more lacklustre strike force than us, we have one game all based around pelle!

can't see where a goal is going to come from even on the rare occasions we've got close we've been nowhere near hitting the target, 61% possession and foster has been virtually a spectator

why all the tippy tappy overplayed rubbish when we get near goal?

just a bad patch or flatters to deceive?

that's djuricic allegedly

Pelle is not an out and out goal scorer his hold up play is great but not a natural goal scorer, i think we have gambled on too many bloody mid-fielders

no time to control that one!

lucky that was straight at forster either side and it would have been a goal

being outplayed by brom at the moment

we cant score one let alone two!

nice start saints! we are a joke at the moment can't score and are starting to concede regularly

goodbye Morgan "I wan't to play for a big club" schneiderlin

you are blind to the fact that he's had on the whole a terrific defence in front of him that have limited the shots, he's faced the fewest shots on target of any keeper and when they have been on target he's really struggled and most of them have resulted in a goal, and as for positive I think the new guy Duricic has real potential he had a great first half and tired in the 2nd as to be expected till hes settled in

agreed I don't get how anyone can say he is a great keeper, average at best sums him up perfectly, yet to see any evidence of making great saves more than once or twice and his positioning, poor decision making and inability to be agile enough have cost us in lots of games. I don't buy that he's still young either at 26 your not really going to progress any more than you have, he should be at his peak levels now!

agreed cant see them getting anyone else though as we paid over 10 million and hes been told hes no 1

why do you think this? i thought he looked promising if a little rusty as to be expected

not at fault for us losing but should have done better with the 2nd goal and his keeping doesnt inspire me with confidence in general

never looked like scoring pelle was virtually a spectator for most of the game and is simply not up to being the lone striker! we are calling out for a decent striker to play alongside him, strange line up and decisions by koeman today but even the best have off days, that's our last three home games lost, not looking like scoring and not keeping clean sheets either.......... worrying

lets be honest he doesn't offer anything that boruc didn't offer other than a better temperament, his clearances and decision making are shocking and overall he isn't a good shot stopper not been impressed so far but he will get better!

One of these three will score against us its in evitable my guess is Lambert comes on for the last twenty minutes and scores the winner!

its clear we are short up front at least till jrod gets back pelle isnt great in front of goal but his all round play is fantastic and long has never been a prolific scorer, how much would benteke cost these days? im confident koeman could get the best out of him
