He may have got in due to injuries, but now he's in the team on merit even if everyone's fit.

It'd be very hard to justify keeping both EMC and Sakamoto in the team ahead of him on current form,

Yea, its a tough call for Lampard. But its great to have that competition.
For my money, based on current form BTA starts ahead of EMC

Hilarious how shit his goals look this year (mostly) but I think scruffy goals are the sign of a poacher and I am all for it!

I think it has a lot to do with Lampards coaching. Getting players to arrive in areas at certain times, centre of six yard box and far post. Also following shots in.

fatso, no disrespect for your comment but If there was the availability of a half like I would have given it.
For me it's still Saka & EMC if Wright is available, over Tommy Assante.

That’s only another 12 so, if his fitness and form hold up, I expect him to get more than that. Probably 25+.

With Rudoni still injured, we have the option to continue with BTA as a number 10.
His work rate and pace is a big asset.
We've certainly not missed Rudoni so far, and I wouldn't of thought we'd be so full of goals without him.

For me, BTA has been the most improved player so far this season. (Just ahead of Dasilva)

Only played 10 minutes last night - good news for us!

next game is late Wednesday I think, so he won’t be back until Friday some point.

He will want to play every game this season, the carrot = the World cup in his own country. If he could get between 25-30 goal and lead us to the premiership, he would be on centre stage for the WC. Even the most easygoing laid back soul would change at the thought of what lies ahead. Play well for us and get promoted, play well at the World Cup and you could be looking at a ViKtor G moment.

Haji got on in the 81st minute. Managed a couple of shots on goal. Final score 1-1.

The erection in me says if Wright stays fit and keeps this scoring regularity going (and past form says he would) then not only should he smash 25+ but, more importantly, we can’t really not stay in the top two conversation.

In practice he routinely gets a fairly serious injury and has a prolonged time out. Over to you BTA to keep up standards I don’t think anyone saw coming.

I think it’s Tuesday evening US time, so early hours of Wednesday (2 am) UK time, so he should be back on Thursday?

Didn’t Mifsud have about 10 by October and then didn’t score again all season?

Is there a reason he wouldn’t fly back straight after the match and be back Wednesday night?

It will be hard for Wright to get a starting lineup place for USA. They have quite a few strikers to choose from who are all quite good… nobody amazing but all pretty good in their own right

Get concorde back up and running is what I say, if it's good enough for Phil Collins it's good enough for Haji Wright

Unless he has a private jet chartered I think he will struggle to get back before Friday. The last direct flight out of Denver (where the match is) to the UK takes off two hours before kick off.

He'll be a late addition back to the squad, but I really hope he still starts.

It will be an over night from USA on Wednesday night. First class so he can sleep on way over. Arrive fairly fresh on Thursday morning. That would be sensible way to do it.
