I suppose the problem is......

Find a target man and play him and you have to take a central midfielder out or play 3 at the back.

The system has worked for the first two games as we were able to put a foot on the ball in midfield, boss it and play as there's a solidity in the centre allowing the wingers to push on. The consequence of that is there isn't that man up front.

Will we look as solid through the middle with a second man up front to allow that push to happen?

My guess would be no so a target man isn't a priority for me based on what i've seen. If one comes along at a good price, yes. But if it means taking a big risk, no.
