I think he would be perfect for how we set up.
We need someone desperately.
I’ve said it before but I think we need at least two strikers.
They're all lacking, Watters has zero confidence and isn't very quick or strong. Harris is quite quick and works hard but is terrible, and Etete is, well, I don't really know what he is yet but he doesn't look very good.
Our midfield is also an issue, there is no way we're getting more than 5 goals out of those 3. They never get in the box.
Etete is going to take some time, you can tell some good physical qualities are there but I'm really struggling to see how he fits in with the style that Morrison wants to play. Considering our limited coffers, maybe a bit of strange one.
Etete was a strange signing. If he was any good, spurs wouldn't have let him go for £500k. If he was a Tier 1 player they would have kept him, T2, sold him for millions to a german team, T3, kept him out on loan and eventually sold him.
It is a speculative punt for a couple of years time. Realistically he should probably go on loan to a L1 or L2 club to get some games. That miss against BHam was awful.
All three of the forwards we have all look more suited to playing alongside another forward. Assuming we're not switching to a 4-4-2 anytime soon, I'd say we do need two forwards similar in style to Hugill, who can make those kind of runs in behind and hold up the ball at least a little bit in order to bring others into play.
Etete does seem a strange gamble to me.
To be fair to Etete we haven’t seen enough of him yet. All we can go on are people that have seen him and the general feeling among Spurs fans was that they were disappointed he went on a permanent and were very keen on a buy back clause. I also do t think he was signed as a starter - more a project.
Isaak Davies shouldn't be discounted, he should walk into the striker spot once fit
