Anyone else think we might not be not signing a 'traditional' out and out striker, a number 9 or whatever you want to call them?
There doesn't seem to be many credible links so far for that type of player, and being honest (not that i'm an encyclopedia) i can't think of that many we can easily get, who would be of sufficient quality to push us into the top 6 guaranteed.
Strikes me the likes of Neres, Malcolm, Traore, all seem to be predominantly Right Wing Forwards but can also play through the middle.
Are we gonna see Richarlison given another go down the middle if we can get a right winger that suits Silva's template.
Possibly rotating to play through the middle on occasion and Richarlison on the right?
I'm not saying i necessarily agree with the above, however, there is a team not so far away that has 'decent' success playing an interchangeable front 3 without an orthodox 9.
