So a striker who has good all round play but doesn't score many goals is better than an all out striker who scores loads? I think the key word here is "striker" In certain systems, yes. Martin was at least as clinical as Bent anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the key word here is "striker" Except, going back to the original concept Marriott doesn't score loads more than Waghorn. And yes in some cases, it depends on the context. Strikers need good hold up play, it's rare for a top striker to just be a poacher anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ball over the top or in behind - e.g. Bobby davison, kevin wilson, alan biley, phil gee, dean saunders..... Not every striker has to drop off and hold it up e.g. John o'hare, dave swindlehurst, paul goddard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing one striker probably doesnt allow you to play a striker who just ambles about waiting to spring into action for a 5 yard toe poke. Which is a bit of a shame, I always saw it as brilliant artistry, but never mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is also abetter dribbler as he is a lot more agile than Waghorn who can't really run at defences. You say nothing we have seen this season backs up anything I have said well you obviously can't remember his performances from October through to December when he was electric and was one of the main reasons why were 4th place at one point and beat the likes of West Brom and Sheffield United. Waghorn is a good player but so is Marriott , and I think the only reason why he has not played at his best is becuase he has not been given a run of games so he has lost his match sharpness, he hasn't even been playing much off the bench which I find pretty disappointing. If Nugent starts tonight I'll be ducked off to say the least , if Waghorn doesn't start we have to go with Marriott.
