Interesting question this.
The Bayern game will be a better game to make a judgement on but he seems to have sneaky CF instincts.

The Bayern game will be a better game to make a judgement on but he seems to have sneaky CF instincts.
16G/16A in 38 Prem games 90 mins per game. If PKs, then more.
I like Kulusevski but he’s not getting close to those numbers in the league. Should be a very good utility player this season and I’m glad to see him more central finally. He will probably get half those numbers and that would be a good season.
38x90- he definitely won't be getting that many prem starts/minutes.
Since Richy still isn't fit though, I'll say he gets 25 starts and nets 12g/12a in the prem.
He does have the skills where he could be an absolute hit in this position.
I love your optimism but I just don’t see it. I’d love to be proven wrong though.
Would depend so heavily on it clicking with those around him and how creative we can be for him, but he's not any kind of quick....... His strength would probably be his hold up work and acting as a fulcrum; rather than running onto chances.
Though somewhere in there is the player of old that liked the occasional banger from 15-20 yards.

Shite defendingNo idea how he got to the ball for the goal
Thought the ball had gone.
i would stake basically anything that Kulu will not get 16 goals 16 assists in the league next season. like anything. my soul. my entire family line.
Ooooo I'll wager for your soul!
You can have my magnificent aura if I lose.
3 players got 32+ total goal involvements in the league last season. 2 scraped 32 and one (Palmer) got 33.
No one came close to 16/16.
In what universe is that excellent? That is very much average.
I said 38 games, 90 minutes each game- 3620 minutes
I know everyone here has written Kulu off and loves to use him as the butt of jokes, but I still believe in him. I think he can produce the goods up top if he gets enough games.
With Richarlison being a basket case and Son looking to be mostly LW this season, it seems likely Kulu will get many starts.
I'm starting to doubt if we will even bring in another winger this season, much less an out and out striker.
You do know 16 + 16 = 32 bro?
Excluding penalties, only 7 got more than 20 goal involvements:
Watkins 32
Foden 27
Haaland 25
Son 25
Palmer 24
Sala 23
Bowen 22
.
.
.
Richi 15
Brennan 15
Madders 13
Deki 11
Pedro Porro 10
10+10 would be great for Deki next season, especially since he will struggle for false-9 minutes after our marquis striker signing bomba drops...
About 1 more than me.
Starting striker? In the Swedish league maybe. In our league, you are on crack if you think that’s a good idea.
I’m just giving the numbers from last year.
Palmer(33), Watkins(32) and Haaland(32) were the only players that reached 32 G/As. I don’t think any of the 3 got more than 11 assists.
Salah and Foden didn’t reach 30.
Kulu — whom like — would have to have an injury free, PoY year to put up the numbers you describe.
