As ludicrous as it sounds, tell me what Wesley has to his game, that makes him a better option than Engels as our main striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhan_Zhuang Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 And we paid £22 million for him... Was this Suso's masterstroke over Smith's keenness to sign Maupay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t even know what his main attributes are. Can’t head the ball, can’t shoot, can’t hold it up and isn’t quick. To those people that keep saying to give him more time, what are you seeing that could be nurtured? 4 goals before playing champions of Europe, champions of the PL, former best team in the PL, recent PL champions....all teams we have played in the last run of games. Now we go against lesser teams, let’s see how he does against them. He had scored 4 goals before that run and let’s see if he can pick up 2 or 3 goals in the next 6 games 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laughable Chimp Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 (edited) Jesus, there are still Wesley defenders? Here's the thing about him being judged in difficult games. All our other forwards have been scoring in spite of going up against difficult teams. All our other forwards have been providing assists during this time as well. So why is it that Wesley can be excused for not being able to score or assist in our team when all our other forwards can? Not mention the fact that we've also had 2 "easy" games in Brighton and Newcastle where he failed to score.

Oh that’s right we should be beating Liverpool, Man City, Man Utd, Chelsea and Leicester with ease after just coming up from the championship. You are just trolling now!

It’s not so much about Wesley as a player now, it’s more about the teams we’re playing. We’ve had a tough run so we need to cut him some slack. We shouldn’t expect our players to compete in these matches, we only need to focus on playing and beating the lesser teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where did I say we should be beating any of those teams? Is it wrong for me to expect our centre forward to control the ball in the matches against them?

I think you're being unfair right there. Pretty sure he was saying something along the lines of "might as well put Engles up there because surely he can't do any worse than Wesley", not that he specifically wanted Engles to play up there.

ramshackler Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 I've defended him up to now, but sorry this lad isn't a top level footballer. He has zero attributes needed to be a centre forward. Can't head, can't shoot,. Can't dribble. Can't run with ball. Dreadful footballer. Hopefully Davis is back next week so we can have a break from having to watch him. How kodija cannot get minutes at the moment is laughable 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
