I know a lot of people don't like hearing this, but Connolly is not a EPL level striker, not even off the bench. At least not yet.
He has few flashes of talent here and there, but overall he is not a good dribbler, not particularly fast, not that good in the air (even for his height), loses a lot of one-on-ones, and doesn't even really have a scoring record that would justify seeing him get regular minutes in the EPL.
Letting Murray go without a proper replacement was a mistake.
