Farlz Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 I have a mate who's pretty good with his Italian football and he told me he can't really do anything at all except finish and even then he hasn't been able to do that this season. Don't expect anything else from him because he rarely touches the ball. 3 of those were penalties. I'm just going to hope the Italian media have lost the plot and this is a load of rubbish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat Kendrick's Dentist Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Piatek would be the best player we've signed in a very long time. Milan were turgid under Giampaolo and are utter pish under Pioli, creating nothing. Almost Lambertesque stuff. We create plenty and I could see him getting back to being a goal machine if he joined. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted January 7, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted January 7, 2020 Apparently his mother doesn't like Frank Lampard and has also recently become a Nun. She's a Piatek Anti Frank Nun. I'll get my coat....... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been delving into his stats just now and not impressed and several Serie A strikers come to PL and are absolute junk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam2003 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 I’ve never heard of Piatek but I just watched his 30 goals from last season and I think it’s safe to say if he signed for us he’d definitely be the best striker in the Premier League.

Tomaszk Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 This is so similar to the Bent signing except there's the added risk of him coming from abroad. This would be crazy in so many different ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, they really aren't. He was only at Genoa for half a season and scored 19 goals (13 in Serie A). He then scored a further 11 for Milan (9 in Serie A) in the 2nd half of last season. They've been creating nothing this season, and the whole team is getting slated (bar Theo Hernandez and Donnarumma). Piatek would be a massive coup. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 One of the main criticisms of Wesley was his lack of getting into the box, Piatek is probably the opposite of that which will probably get us out of relegation trouble They could actually work as a 2 if this transfer happens 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the hottest striker in Europe for a couple of months last season. Avaraged pretty much a goal a game for Genoa between August and December so they sold him for a €30m profit to Milan in January last year. I thought he'd been doing alright at Milan but his numbers have fallen off of a cliff this season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he'd been doing alright at Milan but his numbers have fallen off of a cliff this season. Now I’m even more convinced he’d be the best striker in the league. Or second best after Louie Barry at least. I honestly can’t comment on him but astonished to see so many people saying that a €30m striker from Milan who has always scored goals before this year would be a disaster when our only striker is Jonathan Kodjia. Anyway likely just paper talk so I won’t get too opinionated either way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
