We scored 22 goals and giroud not always scored so we doing well on that front. we got ramsey scoring loads and got pod, ox and walcott all can score goals. walcott and pod between the two of them last season scored 22 goals. Bentner shit but when we get everyone fit then he won,t be anywhere near the bench
Yes but you still need to have somebody play upfront, Chelsea score the bulk of their goals from midfield but they wouldn't be able to get away with playing Hazard or Mata upfront. I can remember when Arse Shaving played upfront against Everton did n't exactly go well for you guys.

Ramsey is in a vein of form which will soon run out, your wide strikers are injury prone so expect niggles all season. My point being that a squad with one striker can hardly rank amongst the best in the league.

With due respect pod, theo can all play up front and score goals. Also your saying we can,t cope without giroud. But when he was missing for three games last season we scored over six goals in three games. We can add a striker in january . I think we never have better chance to win the league with all our rivals going through issues this season with one thing or another.

Some wishful thinking on my part perhaps :) But a point worth mentioning is that you can never write off the rags, they don't care a jot about the domestic cups unless it is against us or part of a double/treble. They will put some effort in to Europe but not as much as Benitez or RDM with their ECL winning teams, because Moyes simply does n't have it in him to make a mark on Europe with an ordinary squad like this. The United factor however is most effective in the league and those horrible bastards will throw everything they have into their attempts to get an undignified celebration party in May.
It would be interesting to see you sign a striker in January, any particular name that you would prefer?
