Holy shit! Saw that pic when I open this thread!

 

 

Anyways. Does a good amount of pressing the opposition, and has decent pace and strength. Jury's still out on his composure and finishing.

I hope he isn't put in that role every game, 1) he doesn't deserve it, 2) he'll be burnt out by February imo.

 

:thup:

 

This is what Gouffran would look like if we played him up front btw.

 

Agree with that.

Thought he did really well with hold the ball up and trying to bring others in when he had the support, but was extremely rash when shooting and crossing, Hopefully that was because it was his debut at home against the champions, a goal or 2 could change that.

Liked his pace, strength and tenacity. Worked the channels well at times, and was better at holding the ball up than I expected. Missed composure on the few occasions he had fashioned himself a shooting or crossing position. Also was far too isolated. All in all a fairly promising debut.

Either way if he's our first choice striker we're going down.

 

Agree.

 

Standing a guy with dubious composure up top on his own is a recipe for disaster.

 

It was his first game. Let's not draw definite conlusions quite yet.

What's definitive about 'dubious'?

 

His record certainly doesn't indicate that he's the next big thing though does it?

Given time think this lad will do well her.

 

I hope so. He's going to need a fuck load more bodies around him than he had today though, thats for sure.

 

Thank god for Pardew's range of expansive football, eh?
