MotoMkali Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 I have noticed a lot of people seem to think trezeguet is better than El Ghazi. I would like to know why. Trez does some bits better than El Ghazi like defending and tracking back but for me el ghazi is just so clinical. As it stands el ghazi is on track for 10+ goals and 15+ assists by the end of the season. This is unlikely but if he finishes with say 8 and 8 he will have done brilliantly. On top of that I think el ghazi has scored or assisted in every game we have scored 2 or more goals. A goal against Everton and Burnley with assists against arsenal and Norwich. For me he is also very strong in the ball and has great link up play with our other players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice problem to have though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 If Trez and Anwar were merged into 1 player, we'd have some player on our hands. As it stands, we need both. Anwar is much more clinical, but Trez is much better on the ball and never stops running both in attack and defence. We're gonna need both at different times this season. But as said, great selection problem to have. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Ghazi is a player that when we control possession and has freedom to play he can thrive. The problem with him is that when we are being pushed back, and he has little support he ends up giving away possession way to easily. Trezguet doesn't have that weakness. In fact when we have little of the ball those are the matches he has impressed in the most. I feel that when Trezguet has found himself in good positions he has been snatching at things a lot, like he suddenly gets nervous. I feel his end product will improve once he properly settles in. We have only seen glimpses of what Trezguet can do. I rate both players, on current form El Ghazi gets the nod, but I feel Trezguet is more of a team player and offers pace that we miss when his is not in the team. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not necessarily causation but he clearly provides an outlet because he is so dangerous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think Hassan has been decent, not amazing but certainly not a dud, sure he will only get better as he settles and gets used to the Prem.

Although I agree with you, but El Ghazi wasn’t lucky at all but not giving him chance. He assisted a goal against Reading in his first start. I think Trez is the better player but El Ghazi is more productive. Somehow similar to Hourihane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaVilla Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 should have had 2 goals in last two games tbh, cant keep missing chances like that, every goal is critical for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_eristic Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Just wasn't involved at all for massive stretches, then wasted some clear chances. Said in the Reaction thread, probably time to sit him to see if it gives him another kick in the rear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Thing is he is still young and cost what, £7m? I'm happy to have him play for 60-70 minutes then replace with Trez, then vice-versa for other games. Anwar has contributed a fair bit in terms of goals and assists already but unsurprisingly is inconsistent. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did a great job for us last season and was an integral part of us coming up and still has time on his side... Well worth what we paid for him and, although he can be iffy at time, he still has a part to play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siminjo Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 you see him shaking his closed fist, so i think it will be very speculative and unfair to say that he is not celebrating. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
