It seems that barring a replacement for suarez if he leaves, we're settled on the forward front with the signings of Aspas and Alberto.
That leaves us with a big problem - lack of height or aerial threat. How many times have we seen us putting aerial crosses in as Plan B, when opponents park the bus, but with no aerial threat whatsoever?
Someone like Mario gomez, who's available at 15m, will greatly balance things up.
I can just foresee us dropping points this season because we have no plan B or attackers who can head the ball.
And we're going to score less than 5 goals from corners. You heard it here first.
Height isn't a particularly relevant attribute when discussing headers. It's about timing, positioning, anticipation and actual heading ability.
Robbie Fowler - 5ft 8ish - scored plenty of headers
Peter Crouch - 11ft 3 - hardly ever scores with his head
