Decent player for Leeds, not good enough for us. He would get slaughtered if he would produce the same drop off in performance in 2nd half of the season as he did for Leeds. All in i donot see what he offers that abraham doesnt. He has alsmost exactly the same attacking ouput as Tammy had last season. Scoring a good amount of goals in thefirst hal fof the season in low pressure situations scoring in cluters vs shit teams only to do mainly nothing for the rest of the years. If Tammy and Oli both leave we need a back up striker. In this capacity we can talk about Bamford, if he can be gotten cheap but you can't rely on guys who have shown they don't score consistently. This includes all our current strikers just as well as Bamford. OneMoSalah and bigbluewillie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a whole other question coming here to play a different way AND play for a club at the top end of the table. bigbluewillie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then all these guys were not of the required level and it showed. If he didn't play for us in the academy/u23s years ago it would be a non starter. I mean even Ziyech, Havertz, Werner have all struggled its not as easy as he will be better cause we have better players than Leeds Edited May 23, 2021 by OneMoSalah Tomo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also created the only goal today. I don’t understand this. Werner is useless. Havertz mount Pulisic for me for final Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Werner is in horrible form. Cant pick a pass and can’t hit the broad side of a barn. Why is he an automatic starter? If you want speed off the bench, use him in the 75 min.

Ryebread 22 Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 It’s not gonna happen but there is a certain experienced Frenchman that might be a wise choice up top. not sure why we haven’t seen this yet: Giroud mount————————pulisic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He attracts defenders and always has them on their toes. That alone has proved incredibly vital for our other attackers to score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
