It’s going to be Watters up top Saturday, isn’t it?

    To get the best out of Humpreys... He's not an alternative to Watters, he can't lead the line, he's an alternative to DKD or Phillips. He needs a striker to play off.

    Watters missed chances on Saturday but he's still playing well. Needs to score this week, and if he does his goal return is respectable. Of those 12 starts he got brought off early on in 2 games due to injury. He's got 4 in 10 proper starts which is OK. But we need to sign another striker, someone who can lead the line, to give a different option to Watters or to push two strikers up.

    That’s true. He’s done well this season, and if he doesn’t play, we miss his running and graft off the ball.

    For me, he still starts - the goals will come. Can’t base everything on the Rovers match - otherwise we’d have nobody starting up front.
