Time will tell on BZ, but I think he's good for 6-8 goals plus a few assists this season. I reckon we'll get more from him than we would have from COG. As for your points on Hemed and Ulloa - ALL strikers miss chances, that's inevitable. But they have some credit in the bank when they miss...

Like I said, there IS something to be said for a NSF (nice new anacronym btw), but he should still be able to weigh in with his share of goals, and COG never looked capable of that. The caveat is that, as Simster rightly points out, we were SHIZER last season, so maybe he'd have done better...

I think that's a bit of a harsh assessment of the incident. COG put some pressure on Green, who promptly took a terrible touch and gave COG a chance at nicking the ball, which he duley did. Green immediately lunged in desperately trying to recover - I don't think anyone could've easily avoided...

I'm quite happy to have Zamora. He's at a completely different stage of his career to COG, we won't be relying on him to be our main striker. He'll have a valuable role to play from the bench, and his track record proves that he is INFINITELY more likely to poach a handful of goals for us this...
