Bad idea. He is not a striker.

Exactly. We don't need wingers unless we are going to switch to 4-2-3-1, 4-1-4-1 or 4-3-3 formation.Do we need another winger? Brewster was a central striker and I thought the idea was to replace him.
Liam Cullen is a dedicated striker and he won't improve unless he gets games. I accept that perhaps it wouldn't be wise to thrust him straight in but I hope that Cooper builds his minutes and experience sooner rather than later. Some players hit the ground more or less running such as Rodon and Cabango, so if Liam does likewise, it would solve a lot of problems. I see Lowe as an excellent feed for him out wide. Liam is a goal machine and you don't lose those instincts at whatever level you play; witness his goal against Reading. The ball was there to be hit and he did so without a second's thought. Purely and simply a striker's goal. But he WILL need service in the box. Give him that and he could easily become our next big asset.

Cullen was thrust in at the deep end against Reading. Whether you start or come on as sub, if you get the job done, it's done. I see no reason not to give him a run of games. We balls'd up Newport in the League cup so that took out a series of matches that could have been used to give Cullen some game time.
