Not sure you’ve watched him enough. He’s very good in the air. He falls under the Giroud category, very effective but people only remember the misses.

Like Giroud, when you analyse his G/A per minute played ratio, it’s impressive.
True I haven't watched him week in and out, and perhaps my judgement is over a time frame from Chelsea, Madrid etc.
He is deceptively quick and has all the tools, aside from the mental ones.Happy to be proven to be totally wrong though :)

How is that compared to other forwards within his own league tho?

Maybe at even his own time in the PL with Chelsea.

Probably below the very good and top tier strikers. Don't get me wrong, he's not ideal, but he's not as bad as some make out. I'd have him over Lacazette.

Lacazette put him in a spliff and now we’re swapping our better striker out for him ffs.

Thought I was done supporting him when he went on loan but I’m clearly cursed.

And you thought seeing Cedric playing for Atletli was about as worse as it could get...

I understand that people want smn young, scoring, playing well but short term we need smn who has experience, and can play the build up well. if hes capable of that, he's a good rotation option next to laca for a low risk.
other option is nketiah by the looks of it or splashig way too much on smn, we might regret big time.
he's not a "build up" player and he will work in other systems.

Not too big on Morata, but for a loan, he actually does give us something different from Laca and Eddie. Problem is, at age 29 when you talk about him, it’s still about him realizing his potential. He has all the tools, but hasn’t really put everything together consistently.

What tools?
