Yep that’s about what he is - a goal every three or so games, which isn’t really prolific enoughNew to the league, was getting better and better prior to his injury.
Good movement, explosive pace, finishing was improving as he settled.
7 in 23 in an injury disrupted first season. A goal every 190 mins.
Ooh cmon Jedi top10 boro players who got better whilst injured. I’ll startExactly mate
Btw it’s unfair to put that expectation on him either.
This is the clincher for me. He's also poor at holding the ball up, which is why we look better with Coburn and one reason why with Akpom. But that can be coached; I'm not sure a first touch really can.Poor ball control
quite quick
we don't hoof it to anyone to hold up. We play it out , even if it costs us games , which it does , lots of them . Holding the ball up will be required of him less than 5% of his playThis is the clincher for me. He's also poor at holding the ball up, which is why we look better with Coburn and one reason why with Akpom. But that can be coached; I'm not sure a first touch really can.
On the plus side he's quite busy and quite quick. He's not rubbish, just not really worth 4 mil.

He doesn’t have the composure to be a 20 goal a season striker. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a player miss so many one on ones with the keeper than himManny it's a player you don't mind giving a bit of time to. For his first season he has done quite well and you can easily imagine him getting better by staying injury free and helping with his team mates.
He looks like a 20+ a season striker to me.

Like him and Josh together, "physical workhorse" our results are better when Josh plays or it definitely feels that way, he just gives us a presence!
His stats suggest otherwise. He is in the top 12% for goals per minute in the championship for forwards. His xg is 5.24,he has scored 5 goals so pretty much bang on what you would expect. He has scored 5 goals in 10 starts a goal every other game.He doesn’t have the composure to be a 20 goal a season striker.

If he played a full session and managed a goal every other game he would score 20+ goals. Not sure why you think he wouldn't.
But I say it so much better.I’ve already fookin said that!
