Is that why he was taken off so early? Those defenders clearly looked like they were struggling to handle him today didn’t they......
Not disputing the fact he will put plenty of effort in, but so would I if I was playing up front, effort alone isn’t enough at this level especially if we’re aiming for promotion. He has very little quality other that being able to use his size and just isn’t good enough to get the 15 goals we would need from a striker.
If we aren’t expecting a keeper to save that then we’re setting our standards pretty low, he almost gifted them another goal missing that cross.
The only reason we were still in the game was because they missed their chances, it certainly wasn’t a tactical masterclass. We got lucky, admittedly we probably could have won it at the end but Fulham should have been out of sight by that stage, if we are reliant on other teams not putting chances away to keep us in the game I doubt we are going to get far
