Like I said, huge Cisse fan but my patience has run its course with him. We're essentially playing with 10-8 men sometimes when the likes of Colback, Anita, and Cisse are on the pitch contributing fuck all to the attack + the former 2 contributing fuck all in stopping goals.

I've seen Austin create his own shot, I've seen Austin trap a ball, I've seen Austin look remotely a threat of creating something for someone else too.

 

I'm a huge fan of Cisse's but I can't see how on earth he's supposed to do anything if he can't even do the basic s*** which is trap a ball, pounce on a defenders error (which in turn he can't trap), or if he's supposed to be the instinct finisher, then he needs to get something on target when he's taking a half volley.

 

So why are you a huge fan of him then?

Wanted to join "a team on the up"...

 

Dig at us?

 

Who knows, apparently once Southampton showed an interest in him that was the only club he wanted to sign for... not sure I believe that but good luck to him I suppose, still think we've missed a trick but if he didn't want to come this far north then fuck him. Just hope we have an equally prolific striker lined up to bring in for an equally good deal, Mitro doesn't appear to be able to hit the side of a barn sadly.

Just not convinced he is what we need unless we are willing to drop Mitro and give up on him because his confidence will be killed by bringing a similar striker and dropping him. We need someone that can compliment and play with him as well as hold his own.

 

Austin is likely to be more injury prone as he gets older and hasn't set the world a light in the championship. I wouldn't have minded him here but I think we can a better suited fit.

Surely Southampton won't let him go when they'll only be left with Shane Long as a striker? Jay Rodriguez usually plays on the wing these days

 

Claude Puel is using the diamond formation, which he used at Nice last season. Wants strikers that are mobile and can drift out wide. Has been using Long and Redmnd upfront, and Jay Rodriguez is that mould of striker too.
