The trouble is the times we run out of ideas are few and far between, so the player either has to be good enough to play regularly in our normal style, or be happy to play a bit part only getting game time when nothing else is working. We obviously won't use a squad place for the latter.Maybe, but a decent cf who gives defenders a different problem, whoever that may be, would be enough to make the difference in most situations where we have run out of ideas, imo.
It happened very infrequently in the 2 seasons before this and even when it did it was in games we had created and missed chances and penalties. I don't see it as a big issue or one we will go out looking for fixes for certainly not under Guardiola. Thinking about it a reliable penalty taker is probably more beneficial to us than someone good in the air.
