Two managers haven’t played him, even the first who signed him gave him relatively little game time. Surely that is a good indicator he is even worse than what we currently have ?
I don't agree with this. From what I have seen this season, koeman was in a crisis the minute we lost to atalanta and never recovered. Unsworth came in and promoted youth and played the players HE was comfortable with and now allardyce is playing the ones he trusts (ie senior pros).
Klassen has All the attributes that would actually serve us far better than what we play now. It's obvious the players don't play well together and they are individuals rather than a team. Klassen just never getting a chance or a run in the team means he is never going to adapt. I would argue that klassen is the most suitable number 10 type player we signed in the summer and if he could adjust to the league he may well be our most effective player in the middle paired with someone like gueye.
He may also be not good enough, we don't know.
But it's incredible how fans write of players like klassen, like sandro who hardly get put into the team but then complain of how bad the first team actually is. We have a none existent midfield attack wise with no-one to pass forward and someone who has goals and assists in them is lambasted as not good enough based on a few fleeting appearance in the team.
I suppose we are better off with Wayne penalty and can't pass 10 yards Rooney playing in that position though
