I don't want to give the impression I don't like him, I love him like one of my own , top bloke and he is doing the business for us so yeah happy for him to continue leading the line.
For me he is a bit like your prospective son in law.
I know mate, he’s exceeded all expectations so far in the PL and fair play to him. Like many, I wasn’t sure he was capable, but having done the business I’d want ridiculous amounts for him if we sold him, because it would take ridiculous amounts to replace him.
That’s it though - you eventually grudgingly accept your Son in Law because he proves he’s up to it, and in the end you have to acquiesce or risk the wrath of your missus and daughter.
Just wish we had 2 international defenders.....Oh hang on
Agreed. I think he's turning into a fantastic well-rounded striker. His finishing has been a lot better this season, and his work rate and build up play have always been top-notch. We talked about guys like Watkins and Wilson in preseason, but I wouldn't swap him for any of them.
My view on it is that he finds himself in a strange middle-ground position.
It's 0-1 and it's "Bollocks!" it's 1-1 and it's "Come on!" It's 2-1 and it's "Here we go!" It's 2-2 and it's "For fucks sake!" It's 3-2 and it's "Get in!" It's 4-2 and we're " Marching on together!" It's 5-2 and it's "They think It's all over, it is now!"
(Never doubted we wouldn't win, once we got our noses in front. Except at 2-2 when I knew we'd lose. And at 3-2 when I thought we might get a draw. Even at 4-2 we're only one set piece away from a comeback but at 5-2, never doubted we'd win for a second.)
