Thought he worked hard tonight, we don’t create many chances for a striker as such. Young, new country, it took Vardy 2 seasons (not saying he’s Vardy)

It's a near on impossible job for a bloke who is learning the English game. We needed someone who was proven in this league.

Hard to judge since our service to strikers is poor. It’s not like he’s missing sitters, he doesn’t even get the opportunity to shoot.

Agree very poor service to him. Doesn’t stand a chance

Yeah as has been said, we don't create chances for our strikers, still we will need someone else in for when Martin is sacked and we need to pick up points.

Didn’t get any service, played a couple of good balls in to others and made a good clearance after a Jakob error. At one point he collided with one of our own players both going for same ball. I saw him make some good runs off the ball that weren’t picked up and he looks keen. I’ve decided to stay optimistic about him but even Vardy took more than a season to shine.

His touch is absolutely appalling but he makes good runs, is up for it, and attacks the box. That last one could pay dividends if we can teach him the right time and if we keep playing wingers that want to run and get the ball into the box. Our best option ATM though I would agree I'd like to see another striker brought in.

Do you think that poor first touch is coachable? As otherwise he looks promising

Thought he showed some intelligent signs tonight, clever lay offs when dropping deep in to midfield a couple of times and was constantly finding space in the box, he couldn’t help others wanting to try their luck with weak shots from 19+ yards, he will take time to get going but he’s got a lot to learn and playing regularly will help him do this and we need to patient.

Watching his highlights he scored from three positions; through balls, cut backs and crosses. Can’t recall a single one

of those he’s been served up in his time with us. Feel like he’s got something about him but he needs opportunities before we can really judge him as a goal scorer.

I think that's going to be the big question. For a professional footballer it's not a great problem to have. 

But he's a better focal point that anybody else so let's hope so!

Ffs he's play about 100 mins, some of that in a side with 10 men and another against a PL 2nd string.

 

Let give him a bloody chance.

dont speak sense

Extremely extremely raw - but what did we really expect for a million quid - iv seen enough from some of his play to think he could do pretty well at this level - he did very well for the flick for burns goal on Saturday and he had some nice touches last night - also have to agree with above - he hasn’t had a single chance created for him yet either - runs his socks off as well - get another striker in to rotate with him and he will be more than fine

felt for him last night as Howell and Watson seemed to just want to shoot on site! Like the button game he made some really good runs without receiving the ball… liked what I’ve seen so far though and do feel if he carries on making those runs the goals will come
