Nice to have options tbh.

 

Pretty excited about how he could link up with Wissa

we have to - Eddie will amend the attack to play to Woltemades strengths

Why not? He’s played two systems in 4 days.

He could solve one of our biggest issues which is when teams sit off us.

 

 

[Holloway]

Eddie has recently been talking about the evolution of the team,this lad is going to be dragging defenders all over the gaff

[Funtime Frankie]

Maybe the way to play both of them is to have Wissa as LW at times and being fed by Wolt.

 

But as ppl have mentioned its nice to have the depth and flexibility to change up.

[ryanegg]

It's made me think if Eddie wanted Isak to play just behind Wilson originally. It did happen 2/3 times but due to injuries/form, never really carried on. I'm sure he played similar at Bournemouth at one point too.

[NEEJ]

He's going to be really fun to watch, like. 

[Anderson]

Bruno was having a the time of his life when this lad came on. We'll need to evolve whether that's more goals from the wing, or playing him and Wissa, but there's clearly a player there and he'll bring the best out of others.

Agreed my only worry is wissa and big nick playing together when do we rest and rotate them?

 

answer will likely be there is a time  and a place for it similarly to when rat and Wilson were on together but in theory if they both started its currently back to Osula being the sub or Gordon up top. 

 

 

[janpawel]

Random and drunk thought but anyone else think Morgan Rogers would be the ideal player alongside him

 

Woltemade dropping deep / occupying a couple of players and dragging them out of position, causing havoc with his through balls 

 

Then Rogers with his pace and power driving through the middle exploiting the space, and as someone with end product too. 

 

Gordon / Elanga on the wings as pace merchants 

 

Not that it would ever happen like + we got Ramsey 😂

[Conjo]

Morgan Rogers and end product isn't something I'd expect to see in the same sentence. Great ball carrier though.

[duo]

I see Gordon and Elanga as the perfect players for him - he can feed them through with their pace - they just both need to work on their finishing.  If they nail that it'd be a formidable front three.

It's class having someone in the team who just wants to get on the ball and have fun with it. 

 

Should be a force multiplier for everyone around him hopefully.

Good comp, early days. Excited to see if he has a deceptively quick trigger for shooting too.

[tgarve]

He looks sheringham when we need a shearer

"force multiplier" is a very apt statement, when he came on and started being intricate, every other player started being more intricate.

That’s the spirit

I know its fourth-tier opposition, as it happens top of that league fourth-tier opposition, but man 

 

16 out of 17 passes!! The only lads who do that are center halves passing it to each other across the back line with no-one near them. He's doing it on the edge of their box! The guy is a unicorn.

 

20 touches in 23 minutes is also what we want to see. That's more than Callum Wilson in 90 minutes.

He looked good for a 20 minute showing, I like that. Pretty instant impact in terms of getting the ball on the edge of the box and shuttling it about. Deft touch on him, basically a forwards dream to play with, seems like as he'll weave that frontline together.

 

Bradford are in the third-tier, just a heads-up. 

[Whitley mag]

Comparison to Sheringham is a great compliment, one of the most intelligent strikers alongside Beardsley I’ve had the privilege of watching.

 

Could be the answer to breaking low block at home, very good cameo last night.

[The College Dropout]

You can see why he hasn’t played as a striker throughout his career. He doesn’t look like one to me. Wants to link it a bit too much. 
 

He adds a much needed level of football to our team however. As he learns how to be a proper 9 I expect him to play with Wissa a lot this season. 
 

Exciting player overall but you can see he need a lot of development as a 9.

Just my point of view: to be the best striker in modern football, a No.9 has to know when to play like a 9 and when to play unlike a 9.

[Shays Given Tim Flowers]

Kinda want to loan him to league one and watch it burn to the ground.

Ok. He hasn’t shown (in a few appearances true) that he knows how to play like a 9.  He’s not played as a 9 a tremendous amount of times either. And you can see it.  
 

Your Isak’s, Etikite’s, started as 9s.  You can see it in their mentality.  Where you could always tell Rooney didn’t love being a 9 even when asked. But he could adapt his game to it easily. He knew the Role.
