Our so-called striker ‘problem’ has been well documented on numerous blogs and on Twitter. Every time we enter a transfer window, an air of desperation for that elusive world-class striker sweeps across us.

The lack of domestic football has had quite an affect on me. Occasionally I find myself emerging from a tube carriage, controlling an imaginary ball, performing a step-over and sweeping it past the good looking lady in the pencil skirt.

A former Tottenham scout has revealed the truth that will SHOCK Liverpool fans and no doubt have them tweet ‘Get your own Scouts’ […]

He may not have been a striker, but at least we were about to sign someone, even if it is a Director of Football. However, with the […]
