    Is not good enough for us - perhaps as a 4th choice but no more

      I've been sceptical from the start. Got slated for it in the early days too.

      He can finish, but the rest of his game is not up to scratch. Also far to lightweight.

      He can't do any the following to the required standard:

      Link up play
      Hold the ball up
      Create chances for others
      Create chances for himself
      Score goals with his head

      He is a poacher, but he's not in the right place at the right time often enough to score goals.
      Oh I don't know.

        He showed potential last season, but aside from a couple of goals in the early qualifying rounds of the Europa League he hasn't followed it up this season.

        Not good enough I'm afraid.

          In my opinion, he's actually better at that than at finishing. His lack of confidence and concentration seem his biggest problem to me. I don't know, it just doesn't feel right writing off a young lad like that, especially when he hasn't always been ****.

            He can't play as a lone striker IMO

            I think he could be decent in a front two
            The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

              Very average player, if we can get rid in summer for 4-5 million, its great business IMO

                He got a run in the team earlier in the season as part of a front two with Torres under Hodgson. He wasn't great then, but then the team wasn't playing well so maybe it's unfair to judge him on that.

                    I disagree.

                      He needs to be sold to Scunthorpe or some foreign ****e. He's young is no excuse any more.

                      I've always thought he was balls tbh. League one standard at best.

                        shouldnt be playing for us tbh.

                        nice lad but agree he seems to have stopped progressing. shame but just not good enough.

                          Not great, but then again apart from last week he's short of first team games isn't he?

                            I don't think he'll make it with us. If he's not shown anything buy the end of the season, I'd listen to offers over 5mil
                            Me, I’m either planning a holiday or I’m on one.

                              Bizarrely he seems to be the one player who was better under Hodgson

                                In fairness though so was Torres. I think it's a bit harsh to judge him based on Hodgson's time here and he hasn't had much game time under Kenny. I think he could do well in a front two with Carroll.
