This is the wrath of using a lone striker..........
After using Shearer for the past couple of years, I've decided to give the youngsters more first team action......
Do I opt for:
Michael Chopra (9 goals last season)
Shola Ameobi (never got a shot at footy last year but I know he's class)
or
Alan Shearer.
Personally, I reckon Chopra and Ameobi should rotate with Shearer occasionally warming the bench. The problem is that Shearer is such a big player that I can't really leave him out often. Michael Chopra and Ameobi are both at that age when they want a lot of first team action.
I guess squad rotation will have to do. It's worked for my 3 left-backs (Bernard, Quinn, Elliott) so I don't see why I can't pull it off with my 3 main strikers.
Thoughts welcome, like.
