We're missing a striker which begs the question, why were Carroll and Bellamy even bought if they're not going to get regular games?
The issue isn't that we're missing somebody to get on the end of crosses/through balls, we're getting on the end of them but missing them. Carroll starting today wouldn't have automatically meant we'd have scored some of the chances Suarez created today because we might not have created them had the system been different.
That said, I'd have much rather seen Carroll start alongside Suarez against a team like Norwich than Kuyt.
