I understand the debate and doubt over Stama and Hendry. Statistically you can make a case for saying neither are very good when it comes to measuring their worth as a striker.

However, that really depends on what their role in the team is and what they are being asked to do. 

No one actually knows that, and only Jens can really assess whether they are worth their place in the team or not.

For what its worth, I did think Stama would have come good by now and scored more goals from open play, and since that hasnt happened, Im willing to conceed that we will be looking for re-inforcements come January.

However, I keep hearing that Stama has continually fluffed his lines and Im struggling to recall this conveyor belt of sitters he has missed that proves any point. Similarly with Hendry.

We are not a team that continually gets to the by line and throws the ball into the box for a striker to attack or pays off second balls that they could exploit. Everything we do is very measured and controlled to the extent we look like we are trying to score thw perfect goal on every occasion.

As a result our strikers are lucky if they are getting 1 or 2 chances per game. Even Haaland would steuggle off that.

And for those complaining that Maswanhise is just a winger and as such his goals dont seem to count as much? Id point out he plays a similar position to Mo Salah, and no one is saying he isnt a striker......

Tbh my main worry is the potential loss of welsh. He has been brilliant for us. Could either see a few suitors coming in, or the new celtic manager fancying him back. Or knowing our luck, neither of the above but he gets injured 🙄

Could do with another ball playing centre half either way.

Imagine we will see a few outs as well.
