Starting striker v France today..
I think we were probably a bit quick to judge . He's obviously held in higher regard for Kenneth who would command a good fee. He would probably suit our style well now from what I've seen .
Almost a 1 goal every 8 games ratio impresses you?
At the time, he was a dud. You can't separate him from his fee and wages. From handed no 9 shirt "guy who will score goals to keep us up" very quickly became "one for the future".
If fee say 1.5m, wages a lot less then we'd have had time to keep in, see if he could develop.
The guy is scoring goals in a top league , that doesn't impress you obviously.
When he was here there were a few contributing factors to his eventual demise.
He didn't start well , his fellow pros were jealous of his wages and sceptical of his ability .
He was only a young lad in a foreign country , not made welcome by his teammates and eventually used as a pawn by the owner.
Surprised to see he is still in football.
How about we see how he does today, I, for one, have not seen him play more than a few minutes since he left us.
More stats ;)
Europa league - in squad 7 games. Started 0. Came on as sub 4, remained on bench 3 times.
Played a total of 25 minutes, an average of 6 minutes per game.
Yes, scored against Everton, 88th, 90th minutes. Only goals in Europa league last season.
Serie A?
In squad 32 games. Started 8 games. Came on as sub 15 times, 9 games an unused sub.
Played full 90 minutes a whopping twice.
He's at best a squad player at Atalanta. He may well have found his niche as a player in that role, if so, good for him... but it just goes to show what an awful buy he was for us.
Would have loved to see Kenneth Zahore at the world cup with Denmark - thought he'd done enough over the past season to make the 23 man squad
Denmark need a point to ensure qualification, but if Australia fail to win (and they are losing) Denmark go through whatever happens v France.
He's done OK so far. Won everything in the air and put in a brilliant cross for Eriksen.
Accrington Stanley did it!
I wish France had Zidane in charge they certainly wouldn't be as boring then
Hope both sides get knocked out in the next round, their fans have paid good money and travelled to watch a practice atch
If Wales were playing out a 0-0 to get through to the last 16, I don't think there'd be many complaints from the traveling fans.
I can see why the neutrals would be annoyed though.
