2025/26 Thierno Barry

Had a couple of nice interlinking play’s on the ground, but I remain unconvinced by his aerial challenges stats……
He is like most modern strikers, they want it on the deck in front of them. These lads have it drilled into them at a young age now that heading the ball is not a good thing (its clearly not given the dementia related cases we have seen) yet we are on our second manager in a row who seemingly wants to smash the ball up to a target man at head/chest height for him too hold it.

Don’t disagree, but I’m just referencing those stats about him winning the most aerial challenges in the league, yet they feel like they’re always a bit aimless.
