Both Ekitike and Sesko cost more, Ekitike only really had last season as a regular first team starter and everyone is still waiting for Sesko to really have a breakout year too.
 

It kinda bewilders me those in the media balking at the fee; as apart from Delap who had the really low release clause, every other striker we went for was at similar ball park cost and they all had similar risk attached. 

I agree - bar Joao Pedro who was proven in the PL

He proven, but has spent most of his time in the PL as a wide forward and has hardly been prolific. It looks like he's managing the move to Chelsea and to CF well currently, but there were lots of people on here not convinced when we were linked. Especially if he was going to be an Isak replacement.

On reflection, the player that I saw on the match highlights didn't look like the player that I saw in the Under 21s. He looked a bit nervous and hesitant, whereas in the Under 21s he was eager to get on the ball and make things happen. Maybe that's because he was given a freer role, I don't know. Obviously there's less pressure at that level.

 

He's only had three caps and Germany have lost all three games, so things aren't going well. He's also had a turbulent last few days with the transfer. Eddie is very good at giving players the right environment, so let's be patient.

I mean, fuck yes, he certainly hit one where it counted. 

 

That's also, like, one of the three he's scored in the last eighty years or whenever. Don't get me wrong I love Dan Burn but his attacking headers are literally an exercise in frustration. 

 

Except in cup finals.

Eddie Howe rope a dope masterstroke if you ask me.

 

Saving the next one for next April at the Bernabau to to seal our spot in the CL Final.

Dunno if I’m being thick, but who does he look like for that “joke” or reference?

I've no idea. His looks make him stand out, which does not make sense for a serial killer. Serial killers generally look ordinary, they blend in to society to hide in plain sight. A porn star joke would be more sensible.
