My concern is that I don't think Pulis addressed the issue of scoring goals in the last two transfer windows. He put great emphasis on providing a spine of a strong defence and defensive midfielders but did precious little in injecting any flair or striking power into the team. I think the addition of Oliver Burke is a good one but we cannot accept the usual Pulis mantra of him either not being fit enough or too inexperienced. It always seems to me that, unless a player can run for 90 minutes like a Duracell battery bunny, he's never fit enough for Pulis. He needs to play Burke and not leave him warming the bench.He also bought Rodriguez, which is fine if you have other scoring options but I honestly don't believe that Rondon and HRK are those options. We must have one of the most powder puff forward lines in the league and our chance creating and goal scoring stats would bear that out. I agree with Zinman that we're not expecting to play like Barca but it doesn't have to be one or the other, there's other places to be on the spectrum and not just the extremes.
