Scrimshaw is on the bench, so possibly no striker in starting lineup at home.

If that is true, even given the injuries, it really says it all for Cox.

Everything we have heard of Scrimshaw suggests he is not a lone striker.
e.g. 5 foot 9 inches, likes playing on the shoulder of the last man etc.
It would be unfair to ask the inexperienced Jessop to play up on his own so if we plan to win a home game against a likely bottom half team then perhaps we should play both of them?
More likely Cox will plan not to lose and hope for a set piece goal or a defensive howler from Sutton.
From what I have seen Sutton will bring a similar mindset so don’t be expecting a thrillfest this afternoon.
I am sure Sutton will play at least 1 striker though.
Only Cox and Guardiola favour the no striker option it seems.

So we cry out for a striker, supposedly bust a gut to get him in only to put him on the bench? If he’s been involved with Bournemouth’s first team like Cox has been professing (although I had a look and he hasn’t made their squad at all this season) then surely he’s fit so just throw him in there and let’s see what he can do. Can’t be any worse than playing Green up there!

Bunn injured warming up so Scrimshaw gets a start
