*gets out calculator*
....... 20 + 22 + 21 = 63
....... 63 / 3 = 21
so thats a very young strike frce which could also be called....decent! POstiga who proved on his debut he was up to the standards of the premiership, keane who proved himself last season and at leeds in the past and finally Zamora, 56goals in two seasons for Brighton just about sums him up....a great player and a great buy for 2 million.
your views here please......
Helder Postiga rifled home his second goal in as many pre-season games as we ran out winners at Adams Park.
Already a huge favourite with our travelling fans, 'Postie' delivered again in the second half of a testing encounter against Wanderers.
Just over 20 minutes remained when Jamie Redknapp threaded the perfect pass through to the Portugese star who had plenty to do from the left side of the area but left Dave Beasant grasping with an arrowed drive into the top corner.
In doing so, Postiga had the last laugh against Beasant - who is still going strong at 44 and the difference between the sides for much of a one-sided first hour.
Beasant, who had three months on loan at the Lane back in 2001-02, denied us five times - most notably from the impressive Rohan Ricketts, Postiga and Kazu Toda - but typical of his position, he was to blame for our opening goal.
That came after 11 minutes when Christian Ziege whipped in a corner to the near post that Beasant failed to hold and the ball crept over the line.
Wycombe, up against it for long periods but always competitive, equalised within a minute.
Big striker Richard Harris should really have nodded home Stuart Roberts' fine cross but failed to connect only for Darren Currie to flash the ball straight back across goal where Harris tapped home from six yards.
The only note of concern was Christian Ziege's departure after 35 minutes, replaced by David Galbraith.
The second half brought no further changes from Glenn Hoddle and Redknapp, showing plenty of industry to go with his skills on the ball, had a couple of early digs to no avail.
Wycombe's best chance came after 57 minutes when the pacy Jermaine McSporran took off down the right and dug out a cross that deserved more than Harris' tame header wide.
Postiga's cracker arrived with 22 minutes left and he went close again before Davies sealed the win, cheekily flicking home Jamie Slabber's low cross with five minutes left.
Wycombe hit back late in the game as Billy Harding converted McSporran's low cross.
