Mailbag: Are we back in the age of the centre-forward?

You better believe Mr Marcus Speller’s ears pricked up at this one. Our very own member of the Strikers’ Union is joined by Jim and David to take the temperature of the current centre-forward situation in the Premier League. Could the out-and-out number nine really be back?

Plus, which clubs besides Manchester United would we like to see get the All or Nothing treatment? And could Marcus polish off as many Mr Kipling Battenbergs as Erling Haaland will score league goals this term? These and more questions are being answered right here, right now.
