mate in a team where bolasie DCL and niasse start games of course Lookman should start most games, he's a far better player than any of them 3 attacking options

Parts of his game is superior to Boa, DCL and Niasse, but parts are also severely lacking. Say what you want about DCL, but you cant throw him off the ball the same way you can a tiny person like Lookman. The physical parts of his game is what Lookman needs working on.

They are all different players to be fair, and they have different qualities ( not so much bolasie he's a waste of space ) but if I was to pick any of them 4 to start I'd pick lookman every single day of the week, think he's the only one with genuine quality

Needs to strengthen up a bit I think. Hope he’s in the gym working out like Rocky.
Has the attributes to go a long way.

Needs to be careful though, dont bulk up too much

Players bulk up and often lose a yard of pace or agility becuase of it. Lookman has that lack of gravity ability to turn and twist, just let him pla

I wouldnt. Teams like Limassol pushed him off the ball without even trying, putting him up against the more physical sides in the prem would be less than smart.

the game where he scored 2 goals?

good game to use as a reference mate

How many goals he scored against a terrible team doesnt matter much, unless tou think Limassol is on the level of bad PL teams. They arnt, btw, they are way worse, and is in other words, a lot easier to score against.
How easy he is disposessed by a terrible team on the other hand, is really scary, and something that can directly effect how well we do in games. How will he fare against good physical teams, if he cant handle bad semi physical teams?
I dont know if he has evolved that part of his game alot since playing for RBL, but he wasnt up to par when he played for us last.

Well it does doesn't it? because he scored 2 and we won the match so if that's not the point then what is?

he fared well against the RS on his last outing for us, come on and changed the game, he's a fast tricky winger, players like that are usually on the smaller side

your saying he's less effective then say bolasie because hes weaker, yet bolasie falls over his own legs tryna do step overs, weird argument feller

Are we playing Liamssol or teams of their ‘caliber’ week in and week out? No, we arnt, and if we were, a lot more of our players would score a lot more goals.

Are the RS a physical side? No.

Did I say he’s less effective than Boa? No, I said there are matches Id rather pick DCL/Niasse/Boa over Lookman, Boa obviously being lowest on the list of all 4.

Ive seen all this before. Every time we have a promising youth player our fans goes bananas and claim him to be the next jesus. There are so many examples of this, and Rooney might be the only player actually becomming what we touted him to be. One single player! ONE!
Yet the hype train rides on, year in and year out, the names are just different from season to season, but the contents are the same no matter how good or bad the player in question has performed - if he has bad showings its always the managers fault for ‘using him wrong’, if he doesnt play because of these bad showings, its the manager being clueless and not knowing what stellar player he’s got, so on and so forth.

Im not saying Lookman wont become a superstar for us, but I know he wont if he’s thrown into the deep end of the pool for our hyper aggressive fans to feed on after a bad performance or two. Look at Davis. Last season he was god among men, destined to be ‘our future Gerrard’. Now he’s become the scapegoat for half the forum. Bet thats healthy for his devlopmemt and doesnt bleed through in games or online at twitter or such all.

think you need to have a little chill mate

overthinking a lot there, it's pretty simple, lookman is a better option that what we have, hence he should play. you mention about not getting hyped up over lookman but that fat idiot didn't even give him the chance to get hyped up, he forced him out on loan so he could play his favs whilst lookman went away and got hyped up by the germans and we had to watch the 3 crabs every week
