Strikers high on Alexander’s shopping list for Dons before season kicks off

Graham Alexanderbelieves his side can improve in all areas of the pitch, but is on the look out for more firepower before the start of the season.

WithMo Eisaand Matt Dennis out injured from tonight’s clash withCoventry City, it left thehead coachwith just Jonathan Leko - who scored a first minute penalty - and teenager Max Dean as his options up front against the Sky Blues.

Physicality is also on the wish-list for Alexander in preparation for the toughLeague Twoschedule ahead.

He said: “I think we can improve in all parts of the pitch. I think we need more competition up front.

“We've got good quality in the first starting 11, maybe 12 or 13, but I think we need to add to that to really raise the standard and competition.

“我们不会签署任何的可用,我们哈ve to improve the team. And I think we've done that with the signings so far. We have to make sure we're prepared for every game.

“It's a big squad on numbers, but the team that finished had a lot of youth in there and potential for the future. I think we need to improve competition with the senior players though, the physicality of the team. There is work to do, it's important.

“But I believe we need strength in depth to compete with our best team.”
