Interesting. Can he play either side? For a team that puts a lot of crosses in, 1.73m striker is interesting
But we don't really put crosses in for the central striker, they're for the wide man or Rudi a lot of the time. If we've got a centre forward who can come and get involved in the game with his back to goal and turn that'd be ideal imo.

After never hearing of him 2 hours ago, I can now safely say he is on course to be the best striker in Europe over the next 3 seasons (unless he goes to Southampton in which case he’s dog shite).

It does beg the question what sort of tactics we would be playing as I assumed we would be going for a ‘target man’ type, which he doesn’t seem to be.

I keep saying it and i truly believe it, i don't think being 6.4ft or 5.8ft makes a blind bit of difference to how we play. The volume of crosses will still be high with a high ratio of headed goals scored next season. The key is having intelligence to time your run to create the space and the position to make it harder to miss that score. Top striker keep making good runs and can make a bad pass into a good one and a good pass into a great one. Tha aim is accuracy and timing, accuracy of the pass/cross and timing of the run..

I dont mind having a 6.ft player but intelligence and atletism is more important than physicality and height is my opinion. A mixture can work but the lad i question would not effect how we play, he would be a very good addition.

I wouldnt. He didnt look much in the playoffs across the games i saw him
Wycombe apparently want around £10 million for him. He scored 18 goals but a lot of those goals came in the first half of the season. He's on a long term contract so Wycombe are not going to let him go cheaply. He's also been linked with West Ham

I wouldn’t want to spend that on a player who’s scored 2 goals in the league below since Jan
