Haha no literally other side of the world in Australia.
I think just because of how often we are getting bullied I am over emphasising getting muscle into the team. I get though that it’s a simplistic view to have, we need the technical quality as well. Didn’t know that Sørloth had done that badly, nor do I ever seen him as starter but I felt he could have been an good squad option and offer something different now Giroud is gone.
Will be interesting to see how he does at palace
Would like him as a back up over Welbeck (obviously) but I dont think Arsenal would spend 20 million on a player that would be way down the pecking order. Also dont see him coming to a club with two 50 million strikers ahead of him - two of the most lethal strikers in the world for the last few seasons as well.
Think Palace is a good move for him, especially as he should be getting plenty of game time with only Benteke as his main competitor for the nr 9 position.
At Gronigen he scored 5 goals in 38 apps whichs is quite poor in such a mediocre league. Had 10 in 19 in Denmark, so I do think 20 mill is way to much for him. At the same time, the English clubs have that kind of money now. I think the Norwegian we should go for is Sander Berge. Also Samuel Agdenbenro at Rosenborg looks like quite the talent, although not Norwegian.
