Just lacking something?

His supply was poor, however he was no better than any other of our strikers today and yet Locadia gets the shit.

It’s hard to see him getting a run of games this season. Maybe it would suit him to get a loan somewhere and come back with hopefully renewed confidence next season.
Possibly because he had *THE* chance.
It was a horrible game of football with little of merit on both sides.
He had the best chance of the game where almost any contact on target would have meant the return of a precious point tonight. He missed.

Yeah, lets go back, say... three seasons and find out who else has been witch hunted for missing a vital point or three shall we?

With Glenn Murray not getting any younger we need that big target man striker who can either score a goal or bring in others, someone who will work hard. It is an important position in the squad and I've seen enough of Locadia to see he is not what we need.

If he goes out on loan I don't expect to see him return.

The club won’t throw away the best part of £14m, so he’ll be given loads of time. But if Murray and Andone stay fit, he may not see much action, so he’ll volunteer to move on.
Correct, but you omitted the word “immediately” at the end of your last sentence. !!
Leon Best?

He hasn’t scored in 16 appearances which at first glance is shocking, however how many minutes has he actually played?
Personally until he has a run of three or four games of at least 60 minutes or so you can’t really comment on his worth.

Oh I think the 'sages' of NSC can, just because a scapegoat is needed.

Glenn Murray IS the big target man, his goals kept us up last season and will do so again this season, so while he is here doing his thing we need a player that can sub in for him so we can keep our shape and he can get some rest.
Currently the top Prem striker is a big target man - Harry Kane. They also have a similar style player on their bench in Llorente so that Kane can rest.
We have 4 wingers at this club and full backs that like to get forward, so again it makes sense to have another striker who is an aerial threat.

Sometimes players are the wrong fit and I fear this could be the case. Horrible miss but all strikers miss sitters. It could all change with one goal so let’s hope it happens before Jan. Would love to see him turn it around.

1. Andone didn't need that sort of run to show his class.
2. We play with a lone striker.
3. That striker has been one of the Prem's top scorers over the last 54 matches.
So the run of which you speak is not going to happen.
Is it about a scapegoat or a player that is struggling?
I still hope he turns it round but he needs a bit of luck.....

Chris Wood, who toiled against us today , has scored once in his last 16 appearances.
