    yet under his management we've never been what you could call 'attack minded'.

    Last season he had Ritchies strikers in Hayes, Richards & Wright, so you could understand it if he didn't rate them. He's now signed his own strikers, so does this mean we'll see a change to attacking football?

    Only other postion he's splashed the cash for is a new keeper - is it a case of hoping he (Muller) keeps the scores down and whilst realising that the defence is pretty leaky Davey realises we've got to score 3 or 4 to win a game?

    Or could it be that strikers appear to increase in value quicker - £400k this season, £4m next if goals are scored - a la Chopra?

    I've considered the possibility of his speculation in strikers increasing in value quicker. But that's the name of the game for cash strapped clubs so nothing strange there.

    Although not bald, could shave his head. Not getting in Fulham team now and bags of experience.
