Following on from our 2-0 defeat at Ewood Park, and reading between the lines, it doesn`t look as if Roy Hodgson is prepared to spend on a striker this January.
With Clint Dempsey suffering what looked to be a serious injury, our once potent strike-force is looking a little depleted.
But, and fair play to him, the manager is sticking by his principles, remarking,
“Injuries are not being kind to us. It`s the transfer window but we are limited with what we can spend.”
“I don`t like buying players just for now when there are others coming back further down the line.”
“So we have to carry on and do the best with the players I have got available.”
“We are short up front at the moment and didn`t take our chances.”
So it looks as if Andrew Johnson and Erik Nevland will be asked to deliver the goods until either Bobby Zamora or Clint Dempsey return.
Is it a decision you agree with or not?
