He's a frigging professional footballer, a supposedly elite athlete. Trains a couple hours a day, plays twice a week. Has access to unreal facilities and medical experts. Paid millions for the privilege. If he can't play 90 every game, well get outta here and go find a real job.I’m sure you’re excited to come in here but he’s not the same player physically right now. We played him 90 minutes in almost every game too long.
To be fair to Kudus ,
Benefits greatly from not being Johnson.Just an average player who can have the odd great game and who only looks good cause his teammates are utter wank.
It's cool when he sits on his mini throne too. Definitely worth a lot of points...on TikTok.Benefits greatly from not being Johnson.
An assist every couple of games.
Took a high ball down in a rather entertaining fashion once.
Otherwise……
Don’t mind him doing that to be fair. Means he’s done something to justify it.It's cool when he sits on his mini throne too. Definitely worth a lot of points...on TikTok.

This is astute. What do we want from him.If the plan is for him to beat his man and cross the ball he may as well be on the left and crossing with his favoured foot.
If the plan is to cut inside and shoot, it isn't working because he doesn't do that.
So... inverted wingers are not being used correctly, not enough shots from either side.
I dont know what he has been asked to do but I'd be asking him to cut inside and shoot more often (If he is on the right)
He can’t score in a brothel. You need the other front 2 to be scoring consistently because he won’t be. But when they are Richarlatan, Odobert, Tel etc you’re fucked.Can't be too hard on him because he has been our best attacking player this season by a distance.. But it's a problem that our most gifted attacker seems to get a nose bleed when in or around the opposition box. When he's got someone to take on and try and dribble past from deep or near the sideline, then he looks good. But in the final moment when it's time to shoot he can look awkward at times. Especially yesterday.
You weren’t so fussy last night …
