I agree that Liverpool probably aren’t that much better than us. They’ve just had a world class manager that got the most out of some average players. Bit like Fergie did, we never really had a world class squad under Fergie, I mean some players was but he made average players look world class. Arsenal I’d say have a very strong squad all round. Plus they’ve had years playing together under Arteta so have developed really good. I think that’s what we’re aiming for under ETH, a young squad that can grow together and challenge for top trophies. It is very hard to sign a world class ST who guarantees you goals. I think only Kane and Haaland probably fit that profile now. We have 2 young ST, with a world class ex ST now coaching them. Time to develop our own goal machine.I understand where Arsenal and Liverpool are but I dont think liverpool are that far ahead of us really. Apart from Salah, their attack isnt much better than ours, same as Arsenal, is their attack that much better than ours?
But this is the problem, we dont have a defined style yet which is holding us back. Lets hope the 2 games has given our attack some confidence.
We talk about investing, but thats what we done with Hojlund, he is meant to be that investment that gets us goals?
Also in this market, it is very difficult to sign a proven goal scorer, they almost dont exist. Spurs signed Solanke for 65m, is he any good? Sesko is the only one I can think of at the moment.
