How good is our strike force compared to others?

Trying to compare our strikers or centre forwards to the rest of the championship. Wasn't including wingers coz I think we got the best.

The only way I could of think of doing it was to go through Wikipedia for each team and then each player. But that takes too long.

Is anyone knowledgable enough to do it off the top off their head.

Not being doom and gloom as I know we got a very decent team.

not being nasty but if you're interested to know the answer but can't be bothered to do the research you might struggle to persuade someone else to do it for you ???

In the championship last season Barnes was 23rd with 11 goals and Cms was 36th with 9 goals...So in short there were 22 players above our top scorer in the goal charts. Does this answer you question?......We need a striker....McCormack was 4th if it's of any interest.

For the record, Palace's top scorer was Ambrose(who has now been sold for £250k,lol) with 7 of which 4 were pens.....56th in the list.....Oh Murray, what a difference you made!!!

On what evidence do you have a better strike force?

Easter, Wilbraham, and Murray. :lol:

Please stay, your posts are very, very entertaining.

As I say, only if we get McCormack :thumbsup:

I think Murray, McCormack and Zaha is far better than anything you've got. I trust most of the Championship will agree.

I'd be happy to go with what we have now Hoskins seems to be fit and ready to go.Midfielder is the priority.

lol,,,,McCormack is coming to us, Zaha will be sold and how many did Murray get last season?....Don't worry Murray will start scoring when there is a year left on his contract and you still got Wilbraham!!!

I'm taking Leeds, Ipswich and huddersfield out that list..

So we are currently standing at 14th and importantly above Palarse.

Disagree. Hudds have a player who did exactly what CMS did in div 1.Ipswich on par at best with Chopra having a pretty poor season and only 3 more than Barnes.

Likewise, if we sign Raul, Owen, and Heskey our strikeforce is far better than what you've got. Your strike force doesn't include Ross Mccormack. Zaha scored 6 goals, Murray scored 6.

Both of our strikers scored a few more than that. As well as one of our wingers.
