“I was part of a four or five man striking department at United and that is what I’m trying to create here at Cardiff. You need a group like that to help push each other on. The competition is very important particularly when it comes to forwards as I found out to my cost sometimes when I was playing. If you have a striker who can score you 30 goals in a season then that is fantastic, but if you have three or four and they can get into double figures that is going to get you a long way. In Adam, Javi and Federico we have brought in players who certainly know how to put the ball in to the net. It is an instinctive thing and these guys have got that. We needed that I feel. A big problem for us last season was the fact that when we did get chances we often did not manage to put them away. I hope in the Championship that is not going to be an issue for us and I believe we’ve got the strikers here to make sure that is not a problem.”
