Wolves were a good attacking side though, just couldn’t defend. I know that seems contradictory with the main striker lol, but I just don’t see it with how he plays.
Im not watching a ton of Wolves but anytime I have he looks badly average. I’m going to just mark last season down as a fluke goals wise. He also started 30 games so 14 goals is a fine return. Wild to me that Newcastle are this into him.
I thought he was rubbish but he scored a decent amount last season and scored twice against West ham as a sub midweek. Always looked useless against us which is rare
Those players can be resold, even if they disappoint, at a price that at least makes up a reasonable portion of the fee. That’s why you buy players like that.
Nah not for us, it’s still a real investment and because of his age and background the return on it is going to be entirely on the field. He has to be good, and he has to be good now.
If we lose to Wolves we will have 9 games in 11 weeks. He’s basically not going to play for 3 months at that point. I just don’t see any Gametime even off the bench.
