Well, based on goals to games..you are right we don't. thing is you need a striker with a goal every 2.5 to 3 games at least....to make a real difference. as an example with Leicester Vardy is a goal every 2.38 games.

Joe Hart has always been overrated and shit. There is a reason he didn't get a game this season. He is probably of a similar quality to reina except he nearly makes as many mistakes as Nyland without Nyland's actual goalkeeping ability. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who else is in this illustrious dream team of yours anyway? So far we've got Joe Hart and also Origi in attack. I'm intrigued to know more. Have you grabbed Daniel Sturridge yet? Origami is good on paper. 3 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’ll probably get more games playing in the Championship next season, as can’t see him being a starter for us. Good suggestion though and good young talent like this should be monitored.

Agree mate... agree. I just felt that Wesley with what i saw from the Norwich, Watford (yes i know we lost 0-3) and then Burnley game on new years day that he was really starting to get into solid positions, gain an understanding with Jack and the midfield and gain some confidence. If he had carried on with his early season performance we would have been looking at 12 goals in all comps for the season. People on here are talking about £40m for names like Kelechi from Leicester and Origi from Liverpool with a similar goals to mins/games... If he had continued his improvement you could have (all hearsay of course) seen say 15/16 goals in all comps at which point we are talking about Abraham which most of us would shit the bed for right now. I want a top striker to come in like the rest of us, i love this club and i want to see us back in a strong position. But for the love of god give the big fella a chance when he comes back and don't write him off because i think he was just starting to show what he could do! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends how much store you want to put in to goal to game ratio's.......I guess in the cold light of day, it means quite a bit. I heanacho with Leicester : 2017-18....28 games 8 goals 2018-19....35 games 2 goals 2019-20 26 games 10 goals Total 89 games 20 goals = a goal every 4.45 games......worse than Wes's hit rate. are we proposing to do what we have done so many times before, signing worse that what we have already? PS i guess the only caveat to consider is though.....is the games full games or cameo's/subs. I agree totally, plus although hard to do, is weighting of team they are in. Both Origi and Iheanacho are in top teams, Wes was in a poor team. I just don’t want to sign somebody for the sake of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Anyone know anything of Ulysses Llanez? I see he’s another US player who has gone to America. They seem to do well. America is going to start creating some really good players. (btw there is no rumour or anything) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Origi and Iheanacho are in top teams, Wes was in a poor team. I just don’t want to sign somebody for the sake of it. Guess one can also factor in minutes played when looking at it. Wes started every league game for us until the injury and played 90 mins in almost all of them. Iheanacho and Origi were used a lot as subs so games played is a bit misleading or at least needs context. Wesley averaged 85 minutes per game, Iheanacho 48 mins and Origi 27 mins. Wes averages a goal every 358th minute, Iheanacho 1 every 193rd minute and Origi 1 every 186th minute this season. All according to Sofascore.com 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the response bothers you I suggest you stop calling use of facts opinions then. Especially when you are actually the one ignoring the actual numbers and fabricate an alternative reality with zero use of actual data. But it's okey. I'd rather crack open some ardbeg then continue this rubbish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob182 Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Alan Nixon on Twitter (I know many don’t believe a word he says, but the rumours are a bit thin atm), has said that QPR are after an amount ‘in the 20 range’ for Eze, and that no club has bid near it yet. I know, I know.. Twitter/Nixon/Sun, file under BS etc etc, but with rumours today saying Palace put in a £12m bid for him, I hope we’re looking at that and just stumping up what QPR want.... within reason. We seem to be in quite a good place right now, financially. Money to burn, a squad of players likely on very low Prem wages, room to offer what we need to. £20m doesn’t seem extortionate for Eze, to me. When you consider that Spurs paid £25m for Sessegnon a few seasons ago, who was only rated slightly higher than Eze, IIRC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
