The Haji hate on here, Twitter and Facebook is hilarious. Feel sorry for the guy. Imagine uprooting your family, turning up at a club off the back of a World Cup, being top scorer in your first season in English football, scoring a huge goal with a great finish to send us to Wembley Semi, to then score a monumentally high pressure penalty in the Semi in front of millions. Start your second season on fire. Get injured. Come back and ultimately STILL finish top scorer with 12 in 29 and the 3rd highest PPG after Piroe and Sargent in the league.

Yet continuously get pelters from the fanbase about work rate and his entire career here based off of “yeh but he was shit in that one game where I thought he’d turn up”. All in his unfavoured position aswell playing LW. Sakamoto (who I love) in the same position on the opposite side doesn’t even come close to Haji’s output, but is the fanbases child.

It really is embarrassing on all platforms. The guy is the most 2 footed natural finisher we have had for many years.

The problem we might well have with Haji this summer is hanging onto him. All this blame game stuff will not help in the slightest and he'll be very expensive to replace.

Absolutely spot on. Some morons said they’d accept less than his market value as well 😂😂😂

I know he can blow hot and cold, but I wonder what our fans deserve sometimes.
“We want a 20 goal a season striker”…. We’ve actually got one?

What exactly do we want from a striker?

stern John got the same - just cos he didn’t run around a lot like Andy morrell.

Andy Morrell was garbage weren't he. Some fans cheered more for him chasing a lost cause than they did for a lot of Stern John's goals

If someone showed you this about a striker we’d been linked with or were potentially signing we’d all be licking our lips with excitement…

I agree he goes missing for periods but I’d rather have him at the club, then try replace the goals he’s scores, could be very costly in more than one way!

I don't agree with the Haji hate and am with those who think we are better keeping him, but I don't see the point in finding an alternative hate figure instead.

Morrell was not garbage. Yes he didn't have the quality that Stern John had, but you can't have a team of Stern John's or Haji Wright's, and you need hardworking players around them to allow those luxury players to perform. Ultimately Morrell's willingness to run all day also probably did him no favours, as it encouraged managers to play him out of the position on the wing, which was a waste of his best quality as a finisher.
