Will we sign a striker?

Hi everyone I'm new to this forum but used to post on the old one a few years ago.
I Went to the game Saturday saw some positives especially in the way we played in the first half, and also in the way dory Yates, Jerrard and Shane Murphy played until his howler. My question to you guys is how are we gunna score goals?? Mario didn't score at all last season unless I'm mistaken and Sayers has lots of potential but isn't ready to take on the mantel of leading the line. I just feel Jem has left us really short going forwards...

I very much hope so as think we are a centre forward and a dominating centre midfielder short of being competitive in my opinion for what its worth.

Saturday left me slightly worried as don't think we are anywhere near as strong as last season and that side finished poorly and below mid table, a massive under achievement with that quality a season we may look back on regret that's another story.

As for Saturday it was okay thought we were placid and never really had any authority on the game with maybe the onus on us to try and get on the front foot? Set pieces were an embarrassment on 5 occasions our corners never beat the first man and yes I am sad enough and counted. At school boy level that's poor but at this words fail me.

I hope we are in for better season as we have to get rid of the downward trajectory we seem to be on as a football club.
