Danny Welbeck: Dan Out Ere

[skip spence]

Excellent news that Danny is back!

While he may lack the elite cutting edge attributes he also lacks real weaknesses, when fit and on form he's very good at everything really, a versatile, hard-working, athletic player with a good footballing brain. Perfect squaddie!

What's shocking about the second return?

Involved in 6 goals in under 600 minutes, how's that shocking exactly?

He's scored 8 goals in 36 league games for us. For someone who has played his entire career in the PL, and had a run up front for a team which plays the way we do, anything other than double figures in that amount of time is a shocking return.

I won't lie to you, I'm not a Welbeck fan at all. Breaking his stats down to minutes, goals and assists combined etc is all irrelevant to me. When he's on the pitch, he doesn't contribute enough for my liking. Perez has been here five minutes and has shown more of a cutting edge Welbeck ever has in his entire career.

He could be a decent wide option for us. But you could say he won't score as much as Theo out there. What is good is he's English and carries a certain premium, so we'll fetch a decent fee for him.

I like Welbeck. He is not a top drawer but I feel he is a very though player to play against than Giroud or most strikers with his pace and strength. And his touch is not that bad and he frees up space for our other physically challenged technically gifted players. I would rather him than Giroud any day of the week and I am also an admirer of Giroud.

Giroud is a solid 20 goals a season striker, Welbeck is a 10 goals a season forward, when he isn't injured.
I love Welbeck, and I still feel that he'll be a late bloomer (think Vardy), but he's our 3rd striker behind Alexis/Giroud.
That being said, I'd really like to see a front 3 of Welbeck/Alexis/Walcott with Santi and Özil behind them.

In some ways Danny Welbeck is a metaphor for life. Early potential and optimism, followed by mostly disappointment.

Maybe in your damn life.

Welbz is a metaphor for my life, I try so hard and act so selflessly but am constantly let down by others who're not at my level.

One thing is for sure. Alexis Sanchez certainly is not at Danny Welbeck's level...

Is that where we're at as a club? Rooney has levelled Bobby Charlton's goal scoring record for Utd and meanwhile we're congratulating Welbeck for reaching 50 games and making his first appearance of the season.
ffs

Look how genuinely chuffed Jack is in that picture. Jacky boy s sweet lad. So is Danny tbf. Whether you think they're sh!t or great, they're both a credit to the club.

I somewhat agree with what @Taylor Gang Gunners is saying, but at the same time I think Welbz was playing very well during the short spell he had last season before he go re-injured. So hopefully he can continue in that sort of vein. Can be very dangerous, but too often very frustrating. We'll just see how it goes this time around.

Too late to jump on the Welbeck wave aka the Wabe.

Well I love Danny, but this post made me want to jump off the Wabe to a cliff.

Welbz s a top lad tbf. I can count on one finger the times he's been papped on road. He's a great pro, even if he's useless for the most part

Dont agree, Welbeck is ideal option to have. A great squaddie, like Elnenny, if we had more of these and less of unfinished products who aim for stars we d be much closer to titles. These players help you grit the results, overcome injuries, this is how Ferguson and Mourinho win titles.

He is one of our rare forwards that plays great defence. So in our team he has almost unique quality. And he is solid upfront, opens up a lot of space for other players. Much more useful than Walcott because you can count on his contribution always as limited as he is in some areas. His biggest minus are his injuries, but he certainly deserves another run.

Welbz knows the deal
