Would just like to congratulate him on his first league appearance and first goal for the club.

Just watched a few videos of him playing, and he seems to be very versatile up top, and can play on the left, right and centre. One thing I noticed, likes to get forward with the ball and holds it up very well.

According to his Wiki page, it states that he is a forward, but I don't think he is an out-and-out striker.

He very much looks like one of those players that is either unplayable or looks as if he's never played football before with very little in between.

He'll be a cult hero either way by the end of his time with us is my prediction.

Friday was his 3rd appearance. He says that his main position is through the middle. Hasn't played many career games so hopefully he settles here and does enough to keep himself in the team.

One weakness pretty obvious to me and if he gets it right it becomes a bonus - he just seems to want to shoot when anywhere near the box

Just going by his wiki page, bud.

So was I, knew it was more than one but couldn't remember how many.

And also when nowhere near it!

Think he also proved on Friday what his wiki page says, he’s not a goal scorer

I think they might need to update this part!

I would agree with this statement as well, but in his defence he has played the number 7 role most of his career, mainly on the wings.

He isn't an out-and-out striker.

Wiki always does that, I think that's only league appearances, you need to scroll down to 'Career Statistics'.

To be fair he's only made 40 senior career appearances. Without context we've no real idea what position he's been playing or actual minutes on the pitch.
