TheBrownBottle Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 2 hours ago, Sibierski said: Not to the required levels we would’ve needed, but would’ve been a better option than Wilson due to the pace / physical threat, and the bit of unknown that makes CBs think twice. As season has gone on, it’s been made clear to me that Howe sees him as a winger anyway, so we will sign a ST. Then it’s Osula / New RW, with Murphy eventually a back up RB / RWB as the squad evolves. Yeah, I could see a positional switch a la Joelinton. 3 hours ago, ExiledGeordie said: I think he’s definitely shown flashes and looks like he could be a player so I think it’s unfair to say he’s useless etc. he certainly looked lively when he came on against Everton. He’s fast, strong, quick turns, must be very difficult to play against. If we’re relying on him as a backup option we’re knackered though. I agree - I don’t think the lad is useless or owt, just think he’s currently a fair way short Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 He was never signed to be a backup to Isak, he was signed to (in the short term) take a few minutes away from Wilson and maybe fill in wide roles as well. Sadly Wilson has been perma-crocked as usual. There's surely no world in which we intend Osula to be second choice next season, but I also think he will be a great asset to the squad overall.

Aye - can play 2 positions - defo worth keeping around - there will be a time when he will be called upon as Isak plus 1 are going to be either injured or need of a break - I have flashbacks to Bournemouth away 2 years ago when we were on our knees Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wyn davies Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 Said previously he could do right wing as opposed to striker , but yeah could step in as needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We more than likely sign a back up striker anyway like mbuemo but I wouldn't be up in arms if he had to start for a few games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
