I honestly can’t decide if he is evidence for how hard it is to sign a PL striker or how easy it is.

On the one hand, he’s very limited and we’d probably need to spend £30m+ to improve on him.

On the other, he’s very limited and yet he’s got to double figures.

Maybe we should just decide that he’s our main striker, lots of minutes, play to his strengths - keep the money for a new contract for Branthwaite.

I was about to post similar. He's started 13 games in the PL and scored 8 - deep blue May 10, 2025, 6:31 pm
- Good finisher, poor otherwise… - Robin May 10, 2025, 9:01 pm
  - so was lineker!nt - Garence May 10, 2025, 9:28 pm
    - Fair - but he had Sharp alongside him putting in the hard yards. More needed from a lone forward (nt - Robin May 10, 2025, 9:57 pm
      - how about a big bullying front line - Garence May 10, 2025, 10:06 pm
        
        Now we’re talking :) (nt) - Robin May 10, 2025, 10:36 pm
- To be fair if Leno held that would we be calling him a liability? Nt - aje May 10, 2025, 6:37 pm
we'd be nuts to sell him - dpl May 10, 2025, 6:27 pm

- Compared to whom though? - deep blue May 10, 2025, 6:37 pm
- Which implies it should be easy to replace him - aje May 10, 2025, 6:06 pm
- We're still not really playing to his strengths. Even Lukaku was pish on the end of hoofballs nt - T-t May 10, 2025, 5:58 pm
Moyes seemed much more sympathetic to him in this week's presser nt - Jonathan Gard May 10, 2025, 5:39 pm
- Beto gets a lot more chances when - Col May 10, 2025, 6:52 pm
  - he makes intelligent runs, and commits to getting the ball - radovan May 10, 2025, 11:57 pm
- Agreed. He has made a point of saying how more starts would probably have given 15 goals. Nt - Andy S May 10, 2025, 5:56 pm
  - If I were Moyes I'd also be talking up his valuation ahead of the summer nt - AFKAD May 10, 2025, 6:51 pm
    - Completely agree again. nt - Andy S May 11, 2025, 8:06 am
