I agree that we need another option but I'd still rather start Holt as often as possible

There are a few strikers about, but can we get them, or are they good enough? Would Lambert leave the saints in their current position? Doubt it. Could we afford Rhodes? Possibly not. Is Evans worth the risk? Not so sure. Do we need another injury prone striker in the form of Maynard? Not really. I can't think of too many others who would be up to the challenge of starting ahead of Holt, especially not the likes of Sharp, Rodriguez and McCormack as good as they may be. Bring in a striker by all means, but I doubt that it would be at the expense of Holt unless we were to spend a big sum.
