Nah. He is still a really poor footballer.

He scored a tap in and missed a sitter Kane and Son would have scored with ease.

Easy to see him and Skipp were the weak links in general play.

Let's have more than 9 disagrees this time.

Terrible footballer, scoffs all shots, falls over everytime he touches the ball, and needs 4 chances to hit the target.

It doesn't matter that you're involved in a goal every 100 minutes based on a few games, that doesn't make you a good footballer and certainly not a fit for this Ange system. He would fit Everton perfectly right now, funny enough.

If Saudis are serious this window we sell him.

Again Kane and Son scores both his two chances free on goal in the first 10 minutes.

If we wanna challenge for the title we sign a marquee winger in this window and move Son who is the best 9 in the league to striker, else we simply won't.

We're in big trouble generally with our current forward's options, I suspect we won't panic buy as we shouldn't but we actually have a good chance at the title this season, so are you gonna watch on Levy as you have done before? Probably.

He was crap tonight but he’s in a good run of form. If he scores the winner next game all is forgotten about. Never going to be the perfect player and at some stage he will need upgrading to reach the next level, but he’s contributing this season.

He is but games like tonight are a bit frightening. With Son absent the pressure was on him and he produced a 0/10 display. He messed up every single chance and didn’t even get a shot on target.

We need him to win us PL games while Son is away and that won’t happen if he’s going to play like that. He seems to have such fragile confidence.

I don’t disagree with you, he needs to step up this month. I feel it’s a make or break month for him.

Yeah his touch was off tonight, but i think the overall service was also poor.
 
If he doesn't get decent service of course he's not going to score. The problem is people keep comparing him to Kane and Son, those are two of the best players in the world.

He was through on goal two times in the first 10 minutes, scoffs both shots and was pissing himself falling over the goal from about 5 yards. What more do you want?
 
We won and no doubt he will get a serve from Ange or probably Jedinak on the track and told to work harder this week. He is a professional footballer and knows what his job is!

The problem is it’s not about working harder. He runs. He presses. He tries his best.

But his basic craft isn’t good enough. If he had a second longer on the ball, he would be ok. But his first touch is poor, he struggles to hold up the ball meaningfully, always strays offside because he knows he doesn’t have the acceleration to beat defenders and fluffs chances.

He does make some great defensive moves - I’ve been really impressed with his work rate. Reminds me of Sheringham saying how he leant from Klinsman how important defence was for strikers
 
Wasn't great tonight. Decent graft, but not much else.

With everyone cutting inside all the time we limit the chance of putting him on the end of crosses.
