Hey,

I'm West Ham and im half-way through my season and in 7th in the Premierleague.
Four of my first team strikers are all out for what the physio says "between 2 to 4 months" these being Marlon Harewood, Dean Ashton, Bobby Zamora and Richard Cresswell.

Can anyone give me a solution of a good striker to bring in please?

I've got a budget of 2.5M left.

Thanks.

I just discovered this guy on our net game.

Dieter Van Tournout , hes young, tall can finish and head and I got him for under 1m. Im not sure if thats how u spell his name though.

Also, as always Scotland is the place for cheap good young players. Gary O'Conner is probabaly the best out and out stiker, 250k or you could try his partnet in crime Derek Riordan who is more lightweight and skilful

There's this Spanish guy called Paco Luna. He's world class and has plenty of pace and can score amazing goals. Practically free aswell. :)

I would suggest you try get Guiseppe Rossi on loan if at all possible. With Lucarelli and Saha out injured I had to use him up front alongside Van Nistelrooy for the last few games of the season. He kept scoring and I coudn't drop him he was in such good form and he kept Lucarelli out of the Champions League final. He ended up with 16 goals in 20 starts and 2 sub appearances.

Cesar Delgado aint bad. Mauro esposito is a foward but he is also very versatile ans can play anywhere across the midfield but i think he's a little out of your budget.

zigic is amazing if you play him right

get him as target man and get balls on to his head and that - if you get it right he scores loads

i had him and koller at dortmund - both 6foot 7 and 20 heading

was a breeze
