Meh.... That would most likely mean he's doing his job but someone else isn't doing theirs.
20 EPL goal wide-man unicorn alert.
....Besides; by your logic they wouldn't mean shit anyway if we conceded and lost those games.

No need to blame one player, the whole front 3 of whoever starts from Son, Richy, Johnson or Kulu are average players.
Son was doing very well but poor & unpredictable in the last 2 seasons.
Richy £60m or so is average Brazilian striker but tries hard.
Kulu cheap buy, technically good, was excellent in his first season but average these days , assists and goals dried.
Brennon, £50m youngster OK so far but not too excited, he won't be a Delle or a Gaza.
Bottom line this front line ain't good enough to win a trophy and may prove difficult to get CL place depending on how manu and villa do, assuming top 3 is sorted.

There's nuances to everything though.
He was good against Forest. I'll give you that.
His goal against Sheffield United came in the 102nd minute of the game where he'd been kept at arms length the whole game. This game in the mythical "first 10" could very, very easily have been a 0-1 loss at home to the worst team in the league this season. With a full strength team.
I've no idea how he got us 3 points against Bournemouth since he wasn't in the match day squad
City - decent team performance against a team that didn't pack the box and defend with ease.
On the other hand, we lost to Villa, West Ham, Wolves (twice) Brighton and drew with Everton and United, where we were ponderous the whole game in all of those games.
If you took out Burnley, Woolwich, Newcastle & City away, I'd say ponderous has been the best description of our football this season. And a large part of that is Kulu slowing things down for no good reason.
It makes me scratch my head why they all seem incapable of sensing when there's a break on and going for it.
Are they playing to instructions, or are they just not alert?
Yeah I feel our attackers are massively overrated by the fans.
Miles off the other top sides.
Fcuking drivel.
Did he not score against Bournemouth away????????
My usual thoughts during a live game on whether I think we should keep Kulu or not.......
Of course he did.
Ignore me. I was looking at the home game.
He scored the 2nd in a 0-2 win. I'll grant him 1.5 points. It wasn't a match winner.
It would be if Bournemouth scored a late goal.
3rd leading score this year. 2nd in assists last year. Should probably keep him.
Not sure why this thread has been revived. I started it at the end of last season when it wasn't clear whether Kulu would be kept or sent back to Juve due to his inconsistent form. I felt he was worth the £30m and that a manager more focused on player development might be able to get more out of him. Things seem to have panned out that way up to a point but there is still a long way to go.
I'm thinking it might be worth going for a 3 man midfield against Palace with two attacking midfielders (Kulu and Madders) and a holding midfielder (Biss). We could then have Werner on the right with Richie in the middle and Son on the left. Two attacking midfielders might be the spark we need.

It's a bump of an old redundant thread based on whether we should complete his signing from Juve.
Better off closed so peeps can resume chat in the main player thread instead.
