They will kick lumps out of us and get away with it. Meanwhile we'll concede at least one penalty for giving their striker a stern look.
It is written in the Stars, or at least in the memo that the PL will send to the PGMOL.
Kudus - EPL G/A per mins = 1 per 145min........ Could be better but he's doing alright.
FWIW Brenan = 1 per 190min.
In all competitions this season so far:
Johnson
G/A = 4
Minutes Played = 802
1 G/A per 200 minutes
Kudus
G/A = 5
Minutes Played = 1128
1 G/A per 226 minutes
There you go, Johnson has statistically produced more goals and assists per minute than Kudus, in all competitions so far this season. Also worth mentioning that Johnson has achieved this while being a sub most often.
Both players should definitely be doing better though.
Copenhagen weren’t all that and gave us time to play
The Chavs didn’t which was why we didn’t get a shot on target
ManUre might give us space tomorrow hopefully
Stats make me laugh. In those 1128 minutes Kudus has played he’s done more than what Johnson has done in his career. It’s not all about G/A. He takes us up the pitch. He carries the ball. He frightens his opponent. He bullies his opponent. He shows skill.
Johnson in his 802 mins has scored 4 goals and that is it. There is nothing else to his game.
Oh well, if the Prem and Euro trophies are gone this year, hopefully we'll win the 'Takes us up the pitch' or 'frightens the opposition' trophies.
Goals and assists are overrated anyway.

Think we will sell Solanke next summer tbh. Cant rely on him being top striker for our attack. Need better quality.

You’d rather watch Johnson than Kudus?
They are better trophies than “utter shit,cowardice player “ award though
Which is crazy to me because his injury record before he came to the club was exceptional.
Hes ok but not a sheringham, klinsmann,lineker or that type of calibre forward I've been accustomed to watching over years. Tbh I think we are slowly overcoming the ange aftermath of injury casualties. Muani I think will score tomorrow and being called up for france will do his confidence the power of good.
That's a great question.
I like Kudus, and I like Johnson. I'd start them both if they're available tomorrow as I think they're both better then Tel and Odobert at this moment in time.
Kudus is definitely a more exciting player to watch when it comes to dribbling and taking players on, but Johnson isn't the bum you make him out to be. As the stats show, he has produced more end result per minute this season and he deserves credit for that.
To answer your question. I'd rather see my team win, and both Johnso and Kudus have important parts to play in making that happen.
If (as some rumours this week) are suggesting, then we're seriously looking at Ivan Toney...
seeing as when we were looking at Ivan Toney before, it felt like a toss-up between him, Solanke or Ollie Watkins as our best "English #9" to go for...
Missed out on Watkins, Toney went abroad, and I think we may have 'settled' for Solanke after all...
Maybe this season is the season we get who we really wanted all along!
Frank HAS to have sway with ex-Brentford players at some point, so it may as WELL be Toney... 'cos he certainly didn't with Watkins and Mbuelo!
