Klaus I mean, yes kinda. We do need a CF to be shooting and we do need them to occupy defenders, both of which create opportunities for the team. But I think we can also expect our first choice to put some of those chances away. If not, we're setting a low bar.
I've seen a lot of people say it's fine if VK is a flat track bully because it's those teams we dropped points to. I think that somewhat misses the point as I think the issue we have as a team is less about opposition and more about game state (eg. the first goal is always the hardest one to score). The matches we dropped points in were tight affairs where we didn't create many chances (opposition low block, our system broke down etc.), which happened against teams of all calibre. I want our starting striker to be reliable in those clutch moments as it won't always create an opening for other players. I don't think that's too much to ask for.
