I could be wrong and I am in no way comparing him but he has a drogba like style to him from what I see. I was thinking that he had a bit of the young Cyrille Regis about him but if he is able to consistently perform at anywhere near the level that both of these top class strikers did he will be some player.

He is a lone striker who finishes very well but is very poor at creating opportunities for a partner. Very much so and from memory when he's been played wide he's not been effective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hornso Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 What a performance! Pity he couldn't get his name on the scoresheet, but if he keeps playing like that it won't be far away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No he started that game and got 2 assists, one of which was for Milner's last goal for us on his last appearance for us as well. But yeah he looked like Messi that day, beating fullbacks for fun. Pretty sure Ciaran Clark also started that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he doesnt start tomorrow night it will because he will start vs Bristol City which is a far bigger game than tomorrows. I hope we win then draw a premier league club like arsenal and go out with pride with a young team. League is the priority Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep him fresh for Friday and give Hogan the chance to build some needed confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
