I would hate to see Bradshaw leave because 20-goal-strikers do not come along very often; however, if we are going to go down the attacking fullbacks path next season (with potentially Dobson sitting within a back three), we have to play two up top. Oztemur is likely to play at a faster tempo than Romaine and although the team seem very small, the brand of football promises to be very easy on the eye...
Assuming that Bradshaw went for good money this summer, I would like to see the club going for both Hiwula and Levante Cole. They played together at Man City Youth Academy and could strike up an interesting partnership again if we are to play the attacking brand of football that Whitney is promising.
I am slightly concerned that MK Dons might be thinking along similar lines but we probably have to face the fact that Bradshaw is unlikely to sign another contract with WFC while we remain in League One. Does he stick or twist? Ironically, the reason Cuvelier joined Walsall (Whitney's physiotherapy skills) counts heavily in our favour with Super Tom too...
To reiterate, I would love to see Bradshaw stay but if we were to cash in, Hiwula and Cole could work like Andy Watson and Roger Boli (both of whom would get in the current checkerboard team if they were still in their 20s)
