And over 20 assists iirc.

Pretty sure he was getting pelters before he scored that screamer to open the scoring against Spurs then dropped 2 assists and another screamer.

When playing on the right, is he being instructed to come inside and play as a second striker when not in possession? Up around the box he'll often come inside and get surrounded out, and when we're looking to spring it wide he's not there (but Murphy would have been). Really don't understand why him and Gordon don't at least swap sides for a bit.

Involved in both goals to some degree. Was it his header on target that led to the corner when Thiaw scored? 
 

Not as quick or as physical as Gordon and not as good at carrying it. But he always looks to make something happen with a cross, pass or shot. He’s better on the ball in tight spaces and all.

Looked so much better than Murphy technique wise, just a shame he's not a right winger.

Play Gordon RW and have Gordon run at the fullback and cause havoc. Literally the easiest decision going, that. Barnes LW and Wissa or Wolte up front.

There has to be some reason Howe is unwilling to even try it. It feels like it makes so much sense. 

 

That being said if he is adamant not to try Gordon on the right then he needs to be benched for Barnes. He gives us more threat than Gordon and has done for a long time.
