Confirmed Signing Neal Maupay

[degsy]

So he’s a kind of jarg Diego Costa??

Over Rondon, I'll take that.

He'll make a huge difference in our pressing from the front and at least he knows how to play at CF, he plays a lot, doesn't get injured much and works hard. Lampard is building a functional hard working team for the immediate, which we need, buying players who aren't injury prone is a big improvement just on it's own.

We need to understand where we are and what where we are headed and getting lads in who can play most games, gives opportunity for partnerships to be formed.

I think it kind of vindicates a lot of fans views that we had a squad who just didn't put the hard yards in, we weren't delusional as it appears the new manager and DOF agree with us. Now we just need to give them a bit of time and all start pulling in the same direction.

Arm wrestling Dom for the number 9

Its good to get someone with some solid Premier League experience, a known quantity rather than an expensive foreign punt.

But Maupay is a 1 goal in 4 striker in this league - 26 goals and 7 assists in 102 games in his time at Brighton. And if you look at his whole career, he's only really scored goals in Brentford's promotion year from the Championship some 4/5 seasons back.

Think he's going to make a contribution, but we'll need Dominic Calvert-Lewin to be on fire this season to get the goals we need to stay up. Hopefully Maupay's support play can help with that, but going into the season with Rondon/Dominic Calvert-Lewin/Maupay as our three strikers is a hell of a gamble.

We have two one-goal losses and two draws in the league so far.

1 goal in four would have won us points no matter which game.

An 8-9 goal scorer is a valuable player.

This lad could be a very good signing for us. I am hopeful !
