I mean *I* would sell him and buy Gus Hamer but I’m not sure I’m the best person to ask.

The football haven't a clue pundits are out in force. The usual short term assessment of a players worth based on nothing but spurious wishful thinking that there are better players out there for his price.
Haji. 19 goals in all competitions two seasons ago.
11 last season when injured for a very long time.
This season 9 goals and 1 League Cup goal. 2 international goals. Bookies favourite for top scorer this season in the Championship.
It has been established he was not 100% fit in the play offs last season.
He is a player who thrives on through balls which he has not been getting in the last few games. Compare with the through balls against Sunderland when he got a hattrick.
If you analyse the last couple of matches. Against Watford he scored a goal that was struck off because EMC was just offside. He forced the foul that resulted in the Watford player being sent off. Got one good ball at Wrexham and skimmed the post with a shot.
Haji is a heavily marked man and he creates space for Asante and Torp to score.
Some people want primetime Drogba. Every team wants that player, but they rarely exist at this level. Mitovic is the only one who comes to mind .
Haji is the player he is and would walk into any Championship team.

I don’t think you can sell him in January. He goes in the summer if we don’t get promoted but premier league money is worth more than any transfer fee we get for him now.

Not his best game. He just isn't physical enough.

Good assist though when could have been selfish

His overall goals and assists must be brilliant so no need to panic

Very unselfish of him to square that for BTA.Better shift tonight and won his battles without looking too much of a threat in front of goal.

Thought his hold up and deeper play was excellent and he was getting much better service. Thought he’s been crap last two but nowhere near that bad today.

I think he's been poor for weeks.
One of the most frustrating players I can remember seeing.
Getting City out of the Championship will be a breeze for Lampard compared to getting a consistent tune out of Wright .

When he's on it he's unstoppable. But he's far from always on it

Bloke just has to stay onside, infuriating how he’s either not looking across the line or is just doing it performative. Someone of his ability just has to do better.

Tyreece Campbell was awful for it too to be clear

Was sat in line and it looked onside to me. Angle of the camera here adds a fact but I think it’s still onside

Anyway it doesn't matter as the goal was given. Was just watching a something on YouTube WBA fan saying they have to get rid of the manager as they are the most boring team in the Championship lol

Whens he's on his game he is a top striker , but he's so infuriating the number of times he's caught offside , especially when he's looking across the line .

Clearly there are issues, return from international not really on it, unsettling rumours,so he's in a strong position if he wants, maybe time for a new contract if it's genuine,Pay Bamford here for what reason?

Hats, I always think of those old Pathe newsreels when people used to go to footy games in a suit and hat and throw their hats into the air when someone scored .

3rd top scorer in the league sets up 2nd top scorer in the league to score against a team that we always perform badly against and have a habit of poaching our better players and some of you still want a moan?

He was poor and has been for weeks.
You think that's not worthy of discussion on a football message board?
