Why cant certain posters see the problem!

I and a lot of fans understand that a team needs to gel, and by all accuonts ,the first 2 games have shown us that the players bought ,on the whole ,a re gonna be a major plus for us!...
The problem is THE STRIKER ISSUE!
At the end of last season, any half brain fan could see where our problems lie,and with the roeder culling,it was more obvious!
THE 3 AREAS THAT MAKE UP THE TEAM, NEEDED SURGERY!
Defence/ central defence piority
Midfield/ new playmaker and at least an extra ball winner stroke feeder
Attack/ Target striker who would get the best out of cureton(check his prev goalscorin at bristol and colchester...he loves playiing along side a big man)..and a another nippy sidekick opportunist to give cureton a run for his money..
Now what also could be seen then was that the central defence area and target man both needed urgent attention! the midfield and sidekick then next...
This is unless roeder had all the funds he needed to get whoever he wanted at once, as u all know money talks, look at bloody burnly and barnsley both gettin decent aquistions ,thou at high prices,but BEFORE THEY KICKED OFF!(yes i know burnly lost but they have their other problems which aint my concern)..
So what does roeder do...he sorts out the defence,and from lack of shots on our goal,he has done a great job!

He then gets midfield sorted with the signings o f 3 players...i wouldve been happy with 2 at moment,or me personnally just the 1, and after other areas had been sorted, then look at adding to the midfield...

And he gets a nippy side kick who can wing as well,happy with that,but no TARGET MAN!

My point is simple....he should have concentrated on what was a piority I.E Defensive issues and then a Target man. and start the midfield rebuilding probably doing it with 1/2 at first and adding before the end of window..

This isnt hindsight as posts from may have been calling for central defenders and a target striker! with midfeild needin at least 2(as i said i disagree with that but hey)

1st 2 games.... most people who went to both games,including me to mkdons,and reports all suggest the team cohersed well and the midifeld created chances for the attack, But theres the problem, the chances created were wasted,and as soon as the ball was with curetons!!! sidekick,he was bundled off! WE NEEDED A TARGET MAN WHO COULD SCORE AND WAS STRONG ENOUGH TO PLAY THE "HOLD UP" AND "KNOCK ON" GAME!! IN MAY AND WE NEEDED HIM BEFORE THE SEASON STARTED AND MORE IMPORTANTLY WE NEED HIM BEFORE WE DIG US DEEPER IN THE BOTTOM HALF!

The board needs to either find the extra needed to grease the palms of the norwiegians(money talks)..
And roeder...learn to pioritise ,esp as u can only play a max of 4 out of the 8 micfielders we have, so surely 1/2 couldve ben bought after the striker was obtained!
