What the fuck is going on here ? It makes my piss boil when someone remarks on their personal thoughts about a player…. Get a fucking grip and give your head a jolly good wobble
So we’re five points clear. Hugely positive goal difference. Individually he’s among the leagues top scorers. Yes, there must be a problem there. Laughable
I interpreted the way he left the field on Saturday as pure frustration at his own performance - he looked super pissed off with how the game had gone for him.
Players, especially strikers tend to have these streaks. In this patch of poor scoring form I've seen him battling more, coming deep to get the ball and laying on an assist for BTA when many strikers in that situation might keep it all for themselves.
I also think the way we play and the way teams play us is going to take some adjustment for him. He's no longer the spearhead of our attack - there's just not as much space for him to exploit. When he does get chances with space and time to run at someone, he's making the wrong decisions or not executing well. Both of these things will change over time. Getting on his back is just a waste of time. But hey, here we are on a forum of absolutely no consequence to anything chatting bollocks...
