Probably not tbh but I do think we rarely played to his strengths as a footballer.
Have we replaced him with anything better ?
I am yet to be convinced....

You would have to open your mind first.
Sporar is a much better footballer than Assombolonga.

Remind me how many Sporar has scored this season ? The misses v Hull were shocking btw Britt would have got slaughtered on here....

TBH played to his strenghths he will/would outscore all our current lot. Think the reason he went was wages. We just could not afford his type of salary anymore and the drop he would have had to made in salary here maide it a no brainer to go elsewhere for him.

@asredastheycome what are his strengths?

He didn't miss open goals, he had a keeper to beat and was under a little pressure and another that was not under pressure. Yes he should have hit the target and didn't, but it was hardly comparable to some of Britts howlers.

I think City would sell to them in a heartbeat and Skunks would pay him a fortune.Heard some rumours Newcastle may table a bid for Stirling as a marquee signing...

Hope it happens.
