We really need additional striker?

Due to all the false 9 discussion above and how people are claiming that Schurrle may not be able to play as CF etc.

It would be worth pointing out that Fabregas has proven himself as a pretty useful false 9.

I really think that a 2nd striker is crucial. I just cannot understand why Mourinho trusts in Torres. I'd love to have an option like Remy, Huntelaar, Negredo, Vucinic, Rossi, Palacio, Llorente, Benteke , Cardozo, Volland

We just cannot start the season with Costa - Torres - Drogba. That's utter shit, I can't believe this!!! But Jose knows best

lol

I would even consider Patrick Bamford, our own home grown kid, to sit on the bench and at least get some running time on less important cups such as FA. It sometimes worry me that we don't praise home grown kids into first team as much. The very idea of getting first team time during regular season may help unearth hidden talent! But Jose isn't much of a young talent spotter anyways!

Good to see that u still have hope mate.
