You lot think he can be 1st choice now instead of Lucas? Lucas i think is a fantastic squad player, but this Kuluvesci looks much more lethal and intelligent don’t he?
He’s actually a good footballer.
You can tell he actually uses his brain when he’s playing.
You’ll always have the “bUt hE’s NoT sUpeR fAst” crew. But as his goal today showed, he doesn’t need it to score goals. I’d rather have someone who has the skill to beat his man, link up with team mates and finish at tight angles over someone who would make a great sprinter with no end product.
One has to look at Kulu and be honest about his good and weak points.
He has a Great 'Football Mind'. He has a Great Left foot. He is reasonably tough. He shows a willingness to work hard.
However he is extremely one footed. He always turns in the same direction, once teams work this out, he'll have to find an alternative. He is slow when compared to Lucas. He doesn't have the Arial capabilities Lucas does (For his height, Lucas is extremely good in the air).
My belief is that he would be Good for some Games and Not so Good for others. Conté will have to tactically manage him and Lucas.
It's too early to decide if he is Great or Average. One can't use one or two games to decide that.
