I think someone like Stein is needed who has the ability to hold the ball up when needed and distribute. I don't think any of the strikers at the moment can do that (maybe Watson?) and I think we are short on some height up front. I can't see Boyd scoring a header from a corner.
Holding the ball up is not our style now..but he would have been good going through on some of the balls from Reira and Gorrin. Need someone who can better time runs...and Krishna and Boyd maybe can given their speed.
Boyd's pace was one of the things that impressed me y'day. Having watched him in many games he seemed to have upped it. Plus seemed physically stronger, came out of a couple of decent collisions better off than the other guy. Over the two games Siggy was the other one that surprised me a couple of times for his speed. Maybe some targeted off-season training.
