Leverkusen have been good in their performance so far this season, their squad list has been beneficial to them and the coach's strategy too. It's only fair that now that their key striker is out on injury, they only have to get a replacement for him. Well it's not going to be a very big deal because luckily for them the window is open all they need to do is to carefully scout a good replacement that would match their strikers ability, even though it's temporary.
The second choice striker doesn't have much of the ability as the first and so a lot of work should be done or it's cost the team their performance records subsequently. Yes injuries cause setbacks to teams but it's inevitable and unpredictable too that's why it'll be best for a team to structure themselves and the squad as to always having the right replacement when these setbacks occur. Let's hope that the second striker would match the pressure that the forth coming games would put up.
Yes, fortunately the transfer window has opened, and Leverkusen have opportunity to recruit a new striker to strengthen their attack line. But I think Leverkusen may not be interested in bringing in new players on the attack line at this time, because Leverkusen still have players who are not too bad actually, Patrik Schick could also be a good option for Xabi as second striker. Although so far Patrik Schick has not been able to show a good performance. But in the last match he was be able to score a hattrick, while mainstay striker Leverkusen who is currently injured, has been very impressive in every match.
