Watching Drogba excel alongside Shevchenko after 2 poor years at Chelsea, and Stern's failings as an immobile target man, it reinforces to me how hard it is to play as the lone striker, yet Eto'o has kept scoring regardless. Thus, even though people have ''reputation'' it does not mean that Barca can just put anotherstriker in there and expect their system to work the same way and the goals to keep pouring in.
With the skill of Messi there, prompting Ronaldinho himself to say after he won the European footballer of the year that ''I am not even the best player at my club!", I was wondering who on the board think is the person Barca will miss more on the field.
