I’m sure Rutter was around that number months ago

[Lionator]

That obviously an impressive stat but it seems that more of those should’ve been converted. Is it a him thing or others?

Bit of both, I'd expect that a good chunk of those are the cut in and in swinging crosses towards Mavididi who isn't a target man, and the reverse pass to Ndidi who isn't a goalscorer

[RGFox]

Been overall excellent given lack of experience and age. Conversions from shooting will improve with time, he tends to lash shots wildly, but overall an exciting player. Hope we sign him up!

[trooky]

Brilliant player, will only get better in PL. Just hope we can still sign him with PSR rules hanging over us.

Came to say this.

 

He needs to work on his shooting, too much power and leaning back for me.

 

Still young and fixable 👍

He’s so coachable and still produces a decent output, I’m convinced himself and mavididi just need a striker with better hold up play and they’ll look even better

Imagine how many we'd score with Howard or Ulloa as Centre Forward. We'd have the league wrapped up by now.

It's not far off par, in the Championship about 40-45% of big chances are scored on average. So maybe an assist or two more would be fairer, but it's within the right ballpark.

Hopefully Cannon gets more time with them next season because he can certainly do that.

 

Jamie had so much free space in the box yesterday it was untrue. One of them was going to find him eventually.

[Hamilton Fox]

Really needs to go on the outside more often, the run and cross for the goal were perfect. 
 

[Ric Flair]

It's not £17m anyway, it's €17m which is about £14.5m.

 

There's a running theme that Maresca's team are questionable in front of goal and he's not yet got a track record of improving players in this regard but if Fatawu can be coached to start scoring then he will be an excellent player.

 

He's already very creative and defensively strong. 

[Clever Fox]

If only he could score more goals he'd be up there with Mahrez as our best right wingers.

 

He young though and still has time to learn.

I just love his defensive work for the team.

[westernpark]

He’s seven years younger than Mavididi I believe. I think Stephy is banging his head on his own ceiling- ability wise but Abdul is only 19 and has shown glimpses that suggest he could be playing in a top league for the rest of his career.

Will end up being sold for a big fee in a few years

 

Only just turned 20 and one of the best wingers in the Championship this season

Yep - I suspect lots of clubs will be looking at that 'chances created' stat and favouring him over other targets. His ceiling is very high.

[HarryDee8]

Sign him up !!

[StanSP]

3 goals and an assist. 

 

Unreal game from him.

You called it.

[StriderHiryu]

Half decent player

[Sly]

He was ranked in the 2023 NXGN top youth players in the world. You can see why.

 

He’s been good all season. 
 

Tonight he went to another level. 
 

Well played Abdul Fatawu.
