I dont think hammond is or will ever be a quality striker but he has got a lot of pace so why not use it in another area of the pitch,I seem to remember alot of people moaning about sylla and his effort (which i agree with) so why not play hammond on the wing with his pace on one side and smiths skill on the other surely if that does not create enough chances for hume nothing will.I also think we need a proven striker to come in quickly we have got plenty of unproven players at the club which may be good for the future but is not helping us now.
New striker/Rumours?

Can't believe it but Highlands talking alot of sense :icon_wink , well I agree with him on the Hume idea. I feel he would fill the void that is missing in that position at the moment without changing formation, but not the long term solution, with Joey or Kisnorbo next to him to do the defensive role Hume has enough quality and energy to do the job and create things, he has some nice little touches and shown he can pass and does like to close down aswell. As Steven pointed out when we signed him, he was more of an attacking midfielder than striker at Tranmere.
If then it needs a shake up put him upfront and he is already used to the pace of the game.
Hughes is the key IMO and his showings this season have been hampered by injury, even when he was playing he was carring a knock or two. He and Hume seem to have a very good understanding even though they have not played in many games together. The best front two IMO are MDV and Hume, but do feel Hume could give us the extra needed at the moment in midfield.

When he's fit back in the team.Hume in Midfield is just an option while hughes is out.

He replaces Hume in midfield when he is fit and Hume replaces Elvis. I was not saying he was the long term solution, (I am not a Williams hater, the opposite if you read my posts) but at the mo Williams is not delievering what he should be and something different is needed and IMO (and Highlands
) Hume could give us that.

Either way, why chuck money away on someone who might equally not make the grade. We have some raw potential. Lets help them realise it!
Wonder if the club reads what we write?:icon_bigg

Cool, where do you want to go?!? I went to Liverpool uni (as did the mighty Joe Fox, who could tell you a few stories about Double vision), and I highly recommend it.
Went to get my hair cut the other day and the bloke had never heard of Craig LEvein. They are a bit detached with reality these chelski fans!
