| [quote="Jack Burton":8wk79hpm]Geldhart's issue at Leeds is/was that he's never fit the tactical systems of the managers we've had. He's not athletic enough to play as a lone 9, which also means he isn't that effective in a high press, and can't really be effective as a winger either.
He's a 2nd striker or wide 10 in a narrow tactical set up. There's not many managers who play those types of systems anymore.[/quote:8wk79hpm]
Exactly. Gerd Muller scored 68: goals in only 62 games for West Germany but wouldn’t get anywhere near the team nowadays. Same for Toto Schilacci in Italy. Geldhart is a throwback to a good old fashioned centre forward who does all his best work in the box, but those type of players are now obsolete.

| Yes you`re probably right as Hull played him as a floating 10 playing out left and cutting in which suits the way they play.

I do wonder if in light of recent favourable results we are hoping to fudge it with Piroe and Joseph till the end of the season with possibly just a loan signing coming in when all the transfer activity has died down and we can see what’s left. We are in a real tricky position at the moment, we don’t have a decent striker at the club, but are we going to risk spending money on a temporary fix that ultimately wouldn’t be good enough if we make it to the promised land. We currently have Piroe that wouldn’t play in the PL, and unless Joseph’s career takes on a remarkable upward trajectory he wouldn’t feature either. Would we risk adding a third striker not fit for purpose just to get us over the line ? It’s looking more and more like a loan signing as back up rather than a de facto match winner that simply wouldn’t be available.

| piroe would be good off the bench in a premier league side but never a starter.
I could see him scoring a few off the bench

| Hull City now getting in on the act signing Louie Barry on loan.
Personally I think him and Buendia would have been great loan signings.
Trouble is Farke won`t guarantee they get many minutes which I`m sure must put the loaning clubs off.

| we were never ever getting buendia.
doesn't barry play wide? we have 4 good players there.
we need a 9. the rest we can manage.
I can only hope it's the 49rs doing what they do, conducting business quietly

| Good point away at a direct promotion rival. Extended the lead at the top.
Yep, need a better 9. Piroe isn’t effective in games like that. Too easy to defend
