Honestly, do we really need a 20+ goal striker?

My opinion is we have got Hannah who can score goals and with him falling 5 short off 20 goals last season, especially with the service he got was pretty good i'd say.

But now we have got the added pace and a more attacking team surely he can push on and become our 20+ striker, even LJL may nick more goals with this team.

My opinion so don't hate!

See what you've done there mr optimistic, we've gone from getting a quality new signing that's gonna get us loads of goals, to trialling washed up never has beens, so to keep things nice and positive on here you've come up with this tripe!

Do you think we are flipping idiots

Personally I think Hannah is capable of scoring 20 plus goals in a season. The guy is a natural finisher. With the right service and a decent run in the team he can defo get a good return this season. Utm

Well Hannah goes in flashes where he is unplayable, and then longer periods where he is very playable as he does not seem to understand the offside rule, so step out and bang threat gone.  I would love to be proven wrong but I do not think he is the man to get us 20+ goals.

I agree that he could get 20 goals a season. But I'd like a striker who can get 20 goal without penalties, like Hearn could.

Hannah scored 15 last season, but how many we're penalties?

Jack Mackreth is great at getting players tap ins which is ideal for LJL,and Ross Hannah is one of the best strikers in the league he kept onside more we might some scouts looking at him.

With our added pace and more attacking approach i think we will see him onside alot more, as last season he was too eager in a team which liked to keep the ball back and intercourse around in midfield.

Been saying this for a while now, I really do think hannah will have a big year this year. He is more than capable of scoring 20+ in this league, he shows glimpses now and again of brilliance, given the service and a good understanding with the other striker I really do think he will show his full potential this year and be a big player for us.

I wouldn't say Hannah shows glimpses of brilliance.  He's a decent penalty-box finisher, but struggles to create chances for himself the way Hearn did, or shoot from range the way Connell did.

I'll be interested to see if any change in tactics or our pace in the team allows Ross more chances/service in the box. I think he probably could get 20 goals in a season, he got 14 being in and out of the team all year, so in a slightly more attack-minded side he could get more.

We need to play higher up the pitch and move the ball quicker to get the best out of Hannah, he's definitely got it in him to be 20+ goal a season striker. McKreth getting to the byline should help as opposed to Rodman who use to come inside more often than not. Also, think he needs to be told by Hurst that he's the man, he's the striker thats going to get us out of this league. Sadly, I don't think Hurst fancies Hannah that much for some reason, I wouldn't be suprised to see him start the 1st game of the season on the bench if we bring in another striker, me personally, I'd start him alongisde Lennie.
