Said it earlier in the thread, he's a bit of a one trick pony and can look poor when he's not on form in front of goal, but he wins you games when he's on it. Lethal.

He’s defo more than a finisher - when fully fit you will see the other aspects to his game

My brother is a Leicester fan and I've watched quite a bit of him, for me he's always been prone to drifting in and out over 90 minutes, especially when he's off form. He's more than a finisher in that he also has great movement (particularly with a give and go), but when he isn't "on it" he can sometimes be anonymous, he isn't ever going to dribble past four players or work as hard as someone like Gordon/Almiron defensively. 

 

I think over time he will sometimes split opinion because of this in the same way someone like Laurent Robert used to. 

 

We bought him for end product and he's delivering on that so far imo.

He wins games when he's not on it. Sort of player who could do nothing, but then score a goal out of nothing like that.

By "not on it", I mean in front of goal. If he's low on confidence or missing chances he can look otherwise fairly average, we saw this a bit during his last couple of games prior to his most recent injury, and he's definitely had spells like that for Leicester too. 

 

He'll always drift in and out of games, but fan opinion of him will sway up and down based on his confidence in front of goal imo. 

 

Definitely not a criticism as I like a purely-effective winger (hence the Robert comparison in my previous post), but I think we'll see very polarised takes on him in this thread during his time here.

Loved the finish for his first more than the second. He's sensationally lethal.

 

I mean I don't believe for a second he was trying to nutmeg the keeper on that goal :lol:

Was a fair bit of luck involved there IMO.

Pointless signing :lol:

 

Still baffles the fuck out of me that one :lol:

 

A team with limited goals from the wing, bringing in a goalscoring winger = pointless :lol:
