The Strikers - McDurban - 27-10-2020
I was intrigued to take a look back at the Forest forwards over the last decade based on some of the discussions on other threads.
So I pulled up the list below.
If I could add one more past CF from the past ten years to this seasons line up I think I would plump for Dele Adebola.
Grabban (current form aside) and Taylor are two of the best in the division, only Earnshaw/Assombalonga are probably better/evens but Adebola gave us something different and delivered when called upon.
Who would others on the forum add from the past decade to take the CF's up to 4?

Goodness me what a load of shocking players there! Millions wasted.
RE: The Strikers - Sniffer Dog (Admin) - 27-10-2020
I would say we are in pocket. 2 or 3 were sold for big money.
RE: The Strikers - Sniffer Dog (Admin) - 27-10-2020
To answer McDurban's question I would go for Kris Boyd.
RE: The Strikers - Paplane - 27-10-2020
Blackstock was a fine signing. The Fawaz contract extension was a step too far but he was a decent player when he came. Good in the air and had battling qualities.
RE: The Strikers - Salvatore Matrecano - 27-10-2020
Ooh its a tough one.
Cant decide between Findlay, Djebbour, Macheda, Bonatini, Mir, McCormack and OGrady.
RE: The Strikers - Salvatore Matrecano - 27-10-2020
In all seriousness there is one stand out player who is missing from the list for some reason - Michail Antonio who would be the best by a country mile. Maybe he was listed as a midfielder?
Re Adebola I get your point about a supporting striker. I was hoping Guerrero would fit that bill, sounded like the type of player we havent had for a while. Hope he gets a chance at some point.
RE: The Strikers - Squarered - 27-10-2020
I would choose Billy Sharp. I thought his hold up play receiving the ball, backing into defenders was excellent. He wasn't as prolific for Forest as he was elsewhere but he was a born goal scorer. I think he'd slot into our current team very well. Although I don't want to get into the 'Grabban bashing' there is no way Sharp would have missed some of the chances this season. That said Grabban is a player who can have droughts and then tends to score in gluts - keep playing him unless he's injured I say.

You are incorrect, Grabban didnt do it all on his own. Missing from that list is the mighty Rafa Mir
RE: The Strikers - Sniffer Dog (Admin) - 27-10-2020
It was a miracle to finish 7th last season with such a shit selection of strikers.
