What exactly did people expect when we signed him? 20 goals and a dozen assists?
He was bought to be a rougher upper, to point him at the opposition and let him run them around. He's chipped in with a few assists and half decent contributions.
Yes he was over priced but we needed another big strong lad. I wish I could find a video clip of him winning the ball at RB vs Leicester and holding off 3 players before dribbling forwarrd then releasing Kane with a lovely little pass.
That's what he can do and, as others have alluded to, isn't too dissimilar to Dembélé if not as good.
this. the 'pacey wing wizard who can chip in goals/assist" role is taken up by nkoudou. either nkd becomes that or we sell him and replace him. sissoko has a specific skillset thats useful against certain opponents. nkd spot is that spot that's taking up that wing wizard place
