Lee: Seeking striking options
Having scored only one goal in thier opening three games, Millwall look set to secure the services of Brazilian striker Junior this week, just days after his proposed move to Watford collapsed.

The former Walsall and Derby County frontman, who played under manager Colin Lee at the Bescot Stadium, was at The Den on Saturday and has been training with the club since last Thursday. Should The Lions manage to resolve the player's registration problems that blocked his move to The Hornets over the summer, he could be in line for selection against Reading at the weekend.

However, a starting role is unlikely after Lee made clear that he'll be sticking to his unpopular 4-5-1 formation for the near future.

"I think playing three in midfield suits the midfielders," the manager told The Mirror. "This is a good way of playing. All the top European teams, Barcelona, Chelsea and Lazio play this way, but I am not saying we are as good as them."
