Dwight Gayle (now playing for Hibernian)


Recommended Posts

I’d be happy enough to keep Perez and Gayle and do a deal on one TBH. Don’t have any confidence we can arrange that number of decent deals, would involve Charnley being able to make more than one phone call in a 24 hour period.

Mitro (value), Gayle and Joselu (shitness) can all go for me. Perez is certainly one to keep, let Toney stay at Scunthorpe, Armo back to another championship club etc.... We've got lots of work to do with strikers this summer!

Joselu should just leave....the worst i ever seen play for us on top.

Joselu isn't good but he has scored 4 goals for us. That instantly makes him better than Luuk de Jong, Alan Smith and Emmanuel Rivière for a start.

 

Yep. He's scored just one less than Gayle in considerably less appearances, yet many talk as if Gayle is far superior. I would argue that's just not true. Neither are good enough for us really, and there's next to nothing between the two.

I think Gayle has had a bad season, but he's still got a goalscorer instinct about him. He'd be a great buy for a championship team, I was expecting him to hit a few more at this level tbh. Stats aside, I'd fancy him to score a lot more than Joselu if they both had another season in the Premier. Most of Joselu's goals were mis-hits or flukes.

Gayle should have three or four more from the chances he's had, which is the result of getting into positions but failing to finish. He's also been denied at least three penalties, which isn't his fault and comes from playing for our club.

 

If we have ambitions, and we should with Rafa around, he's not good enough, but there will be strikers at clubs in the lower half of the PL who are worse.

Gayle and Mitro would bag 20+ goals given a full season in the Championship. Or close to it.

 

Wor Joselu? Nope. Nah. No. A dozen perhaps, most being headers. Although maybe with confidence he could do better.

 

It's confidence that's gotten to Gayle this season. I reckon he could grab 12-15 goals with a back wind. But in the PL he won't get the opportunity.

Been given 1 penalty all season it’s beyond a joke.

 

Gayle is also wank as fuck. I love his effort and commitment but by god we need an entire new striker line.

i remember even though he was on fire last season we had the game at Hull in the cup who were a premier league side back then, he played 120 minutes and was a disaster, that was  a good sign that we needed to replace him with someone better the minute we get up.
