Could the fact that a striker who we believe is being brought in to address a dip in form be partly responsible for the dip in form? He’s been training with us for six weeks – about the length of time we’ve been explicitly shite.
Is it possible that training has in some way revolved around integrating him into the team and fitting him in to the system – and, therefore, when he’s absent for actual league games there’s now ‘something important missing’ for the other players… And so it falls apart?
